Getting weight, size and fabric right is the difference between a weighted blanket that sells and one that sits in the warehouse. Here is how to build a range that fits your market.
The 10% weight rule
The common guideline is that a weighted blanket should be roughly 10% of the user’s body weight. For most adults this lands between 12 and 20 lb. Offering 15 lb and 20 lb covers the majority of adult buyers, while 5–7 lb options serve children and travel use.
Popular sizes
- Throw (approx. 40x60 in): kids, sofas and travel
- Twin: single sleepers and teens
- Queen: the best-selling adult size
- King: couples and premium tiers

Match fabric to climate and positioning. Cotton is a safe, breathable all-rounder. Bamboo suits premium and warm-climate markets. Minky and sherpa appeal to comfort-focused buyers and cooler climates. Cooling fabrics are increasingly popular for hot sleepers and tropical regions.
Build a focused range
Resist the urge to offer every combination. A tight range — for example two sizes, two weights and two fabrics — is easier to market, forecast and stock, and still covers most demand. Expand only once you know your best sellers.
