Cashley did a weighted blanket commercial on Facebook. People were posting comments and questions about the blanket and she couldn't answer a lot of them. What a dolt. That was yesterday - haven't checked to see if comments have been deleted.
I own two weighted blankets as my lung and heart condition means four hours of broken sleep a night is Heaven to me. Usually I average somewhere between two and three hours of broken sleep a night. I initially bought one that’s more suited for cold and in between weather. They are very expensive but whilst they don’t increase my amount of sleep I found that instead of tossing and turning at night frustrated that I can’t get back to sleep I’m happy to be snuggled up resting and relaxing under my weighted blanket.
There’s no way their teeny bopper fans will be able to afford those. The only way I could was I made significant sacrifices over a long period to purchase my first one. My grandmother, knowing the difference it made for me, contacted my dad wanting to know how she could buy me my second one and so my grandmother and my parents went halves in buying the summer one and surprised me with it.
All that to say you’re spot on gram. From her lie feed and the few comments left given a heap seem to have disappeared, it’s obvious she’s reciting the company line rather than having used it for any length of time and genuinely sharing the specific benefits that came from it. Not to mention that for children there are strict age, weight and developmental levels children need to reach before a weighted blanket can be safely used by children. Even then the weight of the blankets for children are based on their size, age, development etc. Good old clueless, desperate for money and attention Trashley made a number of references to them being suitable for children without adding a caveat about size, weight etc.
