So you finally gave in and bought bamboo weighted blanket cover. There is growing evidence of its utility as a sleeping aid and countless anecdotal evidence as well. Hopefully, you will that it is truly as beneficial as you have heard. Just remember to take good care of it to make it last. Prevent it from getting stains, spill, and dirt so you won’t have to wash it more often than usual. You can even enclose it in a bamboo weighted blanket cover to shield it from everything that could cause damage or discoloration. When looking for a cover, be sure to consider the following:
Breathability
You need to remember that the weight blanket is already thick because of the fillers and the cushioning. These can add quite a bit of warmth when you use them so having good air conditioning is a must. Adding another layer can make it worse unless you choose something that has excellent breathability. As long as air is able to get in and out without issues, the temperature can be regulated and no discomfort will be felt.
Hypoallergenic Fabric
Those with skin allergies must be vigilant in looking for a cover that uses hypoallergenic materials. Otherwise, they may not be able to sleep well because of allergy attacks that can overwhelm and frustrate throughout the night. Check out the reviews to see if others had an unpleasant experience with the product. Go for items that people with allergies swear by. You can also ask your friends for recommendations.
Fade Resistance
One of the main duties of a blanket cover is to keep the interiors clean by catching the dirt on their surface. This is just like how beddings protect the mattress since no one wants to wash their thick mattress every week. Weighted blankets are, by definition, heavier than normal blankets. They are far too bulky to wash frequently so you would not want to have a reason to. Covers are far lighter but frequent washing can result in rapid fading of their colors and designs. Look for ones with fade-resistant dyes.
Durability
Lastly, the fabric itself should resist the development of holes and other forms of damage due to the strain of washing. Stitching should not come undone as well. It would be difficult to know whether a product will be durable or not before buying it so you will have to rely on the product reviews for information.
