Your questions, answered.

Q: What is the difference between the Integrated, Removable Cover & Cooling Blankets?

A: The difference between the types of Luxome blankets is simple: One has a removable premium cover and the other has the premium cover sewn directly onto the blanket (Integrated) and is not removable.

Our Cooling Weighted Blankets are simply a selection of our coolest Integrated Cover and Removable Cover blankets. The cooling aspect is due to the bamboo lyocell fabric we use, as lyocell from bamboo is a natural temperature regulating fabric.

We also answer “What are the blankets made of?” below.

Q: Which size/weight is right for me?

A: For children (4+) we recommend the small size (42"x56" - 8lbs). For adolescents, smaller adults, and couch throws we recommend the medium size (54"x72" - 15lbs). For most adults we recommend the large size (60"x80" - 18lbs). For a sharable blanket, we recommend the extra large (100"x85" – 30lbs.)

Selecting a weight based on body weight actually has no scientific basis and the weight per square foot can vary greatly depending on the blanket size. All of our blankets are specifically optimized to a perfect weight per square foot based on extensive user testing that included, men, women, adolescents, and children of all shapes and sizes. So, just select a size and rest assured it's the right weight.

Q: What are your blankets made of?

A: Our Removable Cover Weighted Blanket has a removable outer cover of 100% lyocell from bamboo, 100% polyester minky, or a combination of both lyocell and minky (one side lyocell, the other side minky). The inner blanket has an outer shell of 230 thread count, 100% cotton. This higher thread count is to ensure the fabric density to hold in the 1mm glass beads throughout use and washing. The higher thread count also provides the softness needed for use without the removable cover.

Inside the outer cotton shell are 1mm natural, lead-free, hypoallergenic glass beads sewn into small square pockets for even weight distribution. The glass beads are not sharp and they do not cause any damage to the blanket. Along with the glass beads is polyester fiber filling to limit any movement of the beads.

The Integrated Weighted Blankets have a sewn-on cover of 100% lyocell from bamboo, 100% polyester minky, or a combination of both lyocell and minky (one side lyocell, the other side minky). Under the cover fabric is a layer of polyester to provide additional strength and durability for washing.

Q: What is the difference between Bamboo Lyocell & Minky?

A: Lyocell from bamboo is soft, cool and silky to the touch. It is a naturally thermal-regulating and moisture-wicking fabric, that is also hypoallergenic. This is a favorite among those that tend to regularly sleep hot.

Minky is soft and velvety to the touch. It is similar to fleece and microfiber, so it will retain heat for a warmer experience.

Our Bamboo Lyocell + Minky cover options provide a cool, bamboo lyocell side and cozy, Minky side all in one flippable cover to provide the best of both worlds.

Q: Are your blankets machine washable?

A: YES! While a lot of other companies require their blankets to be hand washed only, ALL types of Luxome weighted blankets, up to 18lbs, can be machine washed and dried. Because we use higher quality fabrics with higher thread counts, our blankets can be machine washed & dried without any problems.

If you want to learn more about why our blankets are the best, we deconstruct the weighted blanket in some of our VIDEOS.

We also posted detailed CARE INSTRUCTIONS for all Luxome blankets.

Q: Will the blanket cover my bed?

A: Weighted blankets have been studied and designed to be used individually. We optimize ours to a specific weight per square foot for the best experience and matched our sizes to bed sizes so they can look great while you’re not using them. However, they are not the same dimensions as standard blankets that drape over the bed since that would require a lot of wasted weight in order to maintain our ideal weight per square foot.

Q: Is your blanket really cooling?

A: We designed our weighted blankets to minimize excess heat, but unfortunately, we can't eliminate it. The main function of a blanket is to provide warmth, so we did our best to minimize that warmth while providing additional weight.

Our weighted blankets are much cooler than competitive blankets since we use breathable, high-quality materials and avoid several layers of cheap polyester or cotton. When you combine our breathable core construction with outer fabrics like our 300TC Bamboo Lyocell, our weighted blankets are as cool as you can make a weighted blanket. However, they are still blankets and will still provide warmth, just a lot less warmth than a comparable blanket.

If you are looking for our coolest blankets, we’d recommend the following, in order:

Bamboo Lyocell Integrated Blanket
Bamboo Lyocell Removable Cover Blanket
Bamboo Lyocell + Minky Integrated Blanket
Bamboo Lyocell + Minky Removable Cover Blanket

Q: Where is my removable cover?

A: To save you unnecessary time and hassle, your removable cover weighted blanket arrives with the removable cover already attached. Since we did such a great job hiding the zipper, it may be hard to locate Simply find the black LUXOME tag, then slowly follow the seam towards the center and you’ll find the zipper in between the black Luxome tag and the middle of the blanket.

View our video on blanket covers here: https://luxome.com/blogs/videos/blanket-covers

Q: How do I remove/reattach the removable cover?

A: To remove your Removable Cover, simply open the zipper (located along the same side as the black Luxome tag), turn the cover inside out and untie each connection. To reattach, lay the weighted insert flat, lay the cover inside out on the insert, and retie each connection. Then, carefully, turn the cover & insert right side out by either feeding your arms through the cover opening to the far corners of the blanket, or by using a roll method.

Q: Can I add a removable cover to my Integrated Cover blanket?

A: Our Integrated Cover blankets are designed to be used without a cover, which is why we made them machine washable and removed the loops. If you are specifically looking for a blanket with a removable cover, check out our Removable Cover Weighted Blankets.

Q: Does the Integrated Cover blanket come in the XL 30lb size?

A: Since we do not consider our XL 30lb blanket to be machine washable, this size is only available with a removable cover for easy care and maintenance.

Q: What if my blanket is too heavy?

A: While we would love to be able to guarantee that everyone will experience the weighted blanket in the same way, how a person reacts to the additional weight varies. Some people will feel its benefits right away, and some may need up to 7-10 nights for their body to adjust to the additional weight. For others, it just may not work out at all. Trying the blanket for multiple nights is the best way to know if your body will adjust to the additional weight and why we offer a 30-day return policy.

Additionally, be sure to read and follow all care instructions found on the product label to prevent any further shrinkage due to high temperatures or heat.

Q: Is your Lightweight Blanket really cooling?

A: YES! Due to the plant-based fibers in bamboo viscose, it naturally wicks away moisture from your body, helping you to stay cool and dry. Since the fibers are hollow with micro gaps and holes, it breathes better and evaporates that moisture out of your bed far better than other bedding materials. The result is a bed that breathes with you, mimicking your body’s natural temperature regulation.

Q: Is your Lightweight Blanket meant for warmer climates only?

A: NO! With a thinner profile than a traditional comforter, this blanket is perfect for year-round use. The naturally thermal-regulating bamboo viscose fabric and fill is perfect for hot sleepers, while still providing adequate warmth in the cooler months.

A: The difference between our two blankets is simple: One provides additional weighted comfort using 1mm glass beads (Weighted Blanket) and the other provides light comfort with no additional weight (Lightweight Blanket).

A: By nature, bamboo viscose fabric can wrinkle more quickly than alternate fabrics. Our bamboo viscose blankets are not chemically treated to be wrinkle resistant. To avoid as many wrinkles as possible, it is best to remove the blanket from your dryer immediately after it has finished and place on your bed right away. See our CARE INSTRUCTIONS for additional wrinkle release instructions.

Q: What is ClimaSense?

A: ClimaSense™ is powered by 37.5® Technology which uses naturally derived minerals that adjust to your body’s need for cooling or warmth, helping to regulate your temperature while you sleep.

Q: What is 37.5® Technology?

A: 37.5 Technology is triggered by humidity. Humidity in your microclimate is the gauge for whether you are hot or cold. When you’re hot, the active minerals embedded within your comforter use your body’s energy to remove moisture, helping to cool you down. When you’re cold, the same active minerals use your body’s energy to help keep you warm.

Q: Why is it called 37.5®?

A: It’s called 37.5® Technology because it helps keep your body at the ideal core temperature of 37.5˚ Celsius during exercise, and helps keep the microclimate next to your skin while sleeping at the ideal relative humidity of 37.5%.

Q: Can I use this comforter year-round?

A: YES! Our comforter can transition easily for any season. Simply layer your comforter with other bedding pieces appropriate for each season to tailor your bed to your sleep preferences.

Q: Can I wash the comforter at home?

A: To keep your ClimaSense comforter in the very best condition, we DO NOT recommend machine washing. The delicate Baffle Box construction will become damaged with agitation and the down alternative fibers may clump in the wash.

Dry cleaning or spot cleaning is highly recommended; small spots may be removed by using warm water and soft soap like Woolite. Do not bleach. Do not iron.

Q: Can I add a duvet cover?

A: We encourage using a duvet cover to help keep your ClimaSense Comforter clean and looking its best. The protective layer of a duvet cover can help keep body oils, skin cells, and more from getting in your comforter. View our available Duvet Covers HERE.

Q: How many loops does the comforter have?

A: The ClimaSense comforter has 8 loops — one on each corner and one on the middle of each of the four sides. This is 2x as many as standard comforters and will help keep your comforter in place and avoid bunching with use.

Q: If I add a duvet cover, will the 37.5® Technology still work?

A: Adding a duvet cover will not stop the effectiveness of the 37.5® Technology minerals.

A: No. Our removable covers are made specifically for the size and specifications of our weighted blankets. Choose one of our Duvet Cover options, which are specially designed for the ClimaSense Comforter.

Q: What is a Baffle Box?

A: Baffle Box construction features internal fabric walls that separate the top and bottom layers of fabric to offer exceptional loft and distribution of fill. This is one of the reasons our comforter is so fluffy!

Q: Is the ClimaSense Comforter cool to the touch?

A: ClimaSense is not cool to the touch. The active particles in 37.5® Technology work on a microscopic level to remove moisture and help maintain your core body temperature, allowing you to sleep with less temperature-induced disruption.

Q: Will your technology wash out?

A: The active volcanic minerals in the 37.5® Technology are naturally derived and sustainably harvested volcanic minerals that are chemical-free and will not wash out.

Q: Why does my comforter come vacuum packed?

A: We vacuum pack our comforters to occupy less space; this helps reduce the use of transportation resources, shipping matterials and the impact on the environment.

A: Our Bamboo Duvet Cover is made of 100% viscose from bamboo and is silky-soft to the touch. It also comes in 5 rich colors. Our Cotton Duvet Cover w/ 37.5® Technology has a cool & crisp feel and comes in white and charcoal.

Q: Do your sheets pill?

A: Pilling on any natural fabrics, like bamboo viscose, can be due to a number of reasons, including reasons like rough skin, hang nails, fabric of clothing rubbing over the fabric, unfollowed care instructions, etc.

Bamboo viscose sheets can last several years when properly cared for. Washing bamboo viscose sheets in hot water and with items that have zippers or hooks can cause them to pill. Keep away from fabric softeners and dryer sheets, as the chemicals in these products can break down the bamboo cellulose fibers and shorten the lifespan of the sheets.

Prewash the affected area with a Dawn/water mix, then add another 1/4 cup of dawn to your load, along with the laundry detergent, and wash as usual, using cold water on the gentle cycle.
