Amazon is offering a double-sided cooling throw blanket at up to 18% off, priced at $16.37 (regularly $19.99), just in time for the ongoing heatwave affecting much of the nation. The blanket, made from rayon and cooling nylon, is designed to minimize night sweats and provide a cool, comfortable sleep experience.
Reviewers Praise Cooling Effect
Customer reviews highlight the blanket's effectiveness. One reviewer noted, "This is almost a must-have if you find yourself in a heat wave and have trouble cooling down." Another said, "Holy chill. If you’re looking for a blanket that helps keep you cool, this is the one you need." The fabric is described as silky yet non-slip on the bed.
Many customers report relief from hot flashes and night sweats, especially those experiencing menopause. Reviewer Donna P. explained, "I have been a massive sweater for at least a year now, and now I’m finding out I’m going through menopause. Plus I live in South Florida which does not help the heat portion of it … I am EXTREMELY satisfied. If you have major issues with sweating during the night ... (especially women going through menopause) DO NOT LOOK ANY FURTHER! THIS IS THE BLANKIE FOR YOU!"
How It Works
The blanket's cooling properties are attributed to its rayon and nylon blend, which feels cool to the touch even when removed from packaging. Reviewer Edwina A. Criear said it "was very cool to the touch, even in the plastic bag." Users note that shaking the blanket out reactivates the cooling effect. One reviewer described it as "magical," saying, "This blanket somehow makes it possible to be both warm and cool at the same time."
Even skeptics were won over. AI R., who prefers natural fabrics, wrote, "I was extremely skeptical when I bought this blanket. Some of my coworkers recommended it though, so I gave it a try and I’m really impressed! It’s heavy enough to feel like a true blanket, but it feels cool to the touch. And if you have a fan or AC going, it amplifies the effect."
