Elegear Revolutionary Cooling Blanket Twin, Absorbs Heat to Keep Body Cool for Night Sweats, Arc-Chill Cool 3.0 Fiber Q-Max>0.5 for Hot Sleepers, Lightweight Summer Cold Blankets for Sleeping, Grey

I sleep hot. Really hot. My husband is cold all the time. So blankets and room temperature are an ongoing battle. This blanket has helped that so much. You can feel a noticeable difference between this and a normal blanket, comforter, sheets. You can find it when your half asleep and the room is dark because it really is colder. As you sleep it does warm up a little, but you can just shake it out or rotate it. I also have ezcema and it really helps to not irritate my itchy skin. ⁵

Fantastic! I naturally run hot and now am living in the hot-humid south. This allows me to keep my AC at 76 and still sleep comfortably. I use a fan to blow over the top of me when I sleep - this makes the cooling on-top, as well. It is thin and lightweight which has taken a bit to get used to. I used a weighted blanket when I lived in the mountains.I am concerned about being able to wash it correctly. At this price, if I can't, I will just buy another.

First, the blanket is really thin, so thin that I thought it would feel too light, but it didn't. One side is cool and the other is normal. The cool side was definitely cool on the skin and remained so for the 4 or 5 hours I used it. I awoke in the night to go to the bathroom, and while the blanket was still cool, I was sweating. Sadly, the blanket doesn't breathe, so while it felt cool, it didn't actually cool the body and heat could not escape.I sleep with the A/C on 67 and have a fan blowing across my bed. The blanket I normally use is heavier, but it breathes. I can actually feel the fan through it. I could not feel the fan with the cooling blanket.When I returned to bed, I went back to my regular blanket, which was quite a shock after the cooling one. However, I could feel the fan and slept cooler.The next night, I decided to sleep on top of the cool side of the blanket, and voila, I found the perfect solution for me. Maybe I should just use a cooling fitted sheet, but this is working for me.In summary, it really is cool to the touch and against the body, but I prefer to sleep on top of it rather than under it. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is because it doesn't breathe.

This blanket cools a little too well! I’m one of those people who doesn’t use a flat sheet normally, but I had to dig it out so the blanket doesn’t touch me directly because it’s too cold. Cools perfectly with the fitted sheet though.

The best thing since sliced bread!!!! Hot flashes suck!!! First I’m cold and then I’m hot. This blanket is awesome because it really has a cool side

I was looking strictly for a cooling blanket to sleep with and help me sleep better by possibly keeping me cooler throughout the night. I'm a lil overweight and hot and sweaty at night. I don't sleep under comforters or sheets, usually i buy a thin blanket and cover myself unless i'm too hot. 70 degree or higher and i can sweat or feel hot. i sleep with this blanket by itself not extra sheet or anything.Aspects of using the blanket i feel are general 'Pros' for owning the blanket:1. Lightweight & Thin: I don't know why anybody says this is heavy. I stuck this in my personal bag for a plane trip and it rolled into a small tube and was not really that much heavier before or after putting into my bag or pulling it out. Because it was super lightweight and thin it was easy to fold up into a giant napkin and stuff in my bag easily (was only an inch thick maybe)2.At first , Cold to the touch: The 4 degree temperature cooling to the touch definitely was there and worked. (Granted that cold feeling only last a few seconds or minutes.) After awhile its just a blanket and not super cold but its nice for the first couple minutes.3. Long term Cooling: i would say the cooling factor overall, outside the initial cold feel, was normal or usual for a cool blanket like a 'cool bamboo' blanket. The thinness of the material i think helps it not be too heavy and heat capturing. (it is 2 blankets together but still not too heat capturing) but i also don't feel it was that cold throughout the night. sometimes woke up feeling a lil warm or just comfortable enough. definitely works better with the fan on and feels more comfortable for me temperature wise.4. Washing and drying: Pro & Con.4W: Washing wasn't an issue but a lil inconvenient. in my country with 10 year old washing machine, i press a cold wash button and i use cold compatible liquid detergent and maybe a lil extra oxy or borax or soda wash. no issue at all with the washing. not sure why anybody has that problem except 3rd world countries that have to scrub their clothing and fabrics at the river with bar soap & rocks. This will not survive that.4D: As for drying, all they said about the dryer is the heat would mess it up. So yes its inconvenient, but I hung it on curtain shower rod in the bathroom and brought 2 fans in and blow air. dried within the couple hours at the most. Not sure how long it took, I was working and 3 or 4 hours later went to the bathroom and it was dry. the only "pain" was the dripping wet. At first you need to stretch it across chairs in a wet proof tile floor or in bathtub shower rod or something.SIDE NOTE and TIP: No One has mentioned putting a fan or 2 to this. I'm no physicist but come on people a fan blowing room temperature air will make the moisture evaporate and dry faster without heat. like when water pipes bust and get a wall wet, we all know to open up the wall and blow a fan into it for the day to dry it out faster. Seriously, i read that somebody said it takes 2 days to dry. i hope he reads this and i dunno ... good luck dude. but seriously $10 box fan or something anything will help.5. soft feel: the plastic satin smooth side doesn't bother me i was okay with it and the other side was almost like a jersey shirt soft material. its actually very moderately comfortable when cold and that warm side is better than not a blanket. my wife is very cold and loves it for light weight and just a lil warmth like on a plane or something.CONS:Here are aspects and effects of the blanket i feel are straight up Cons or more on the Con side1. Feel/Softness - Honestly i wouldn't care about the silky satin plasticky side. Yes its slippery but its cold. I never had this "end up on the floor" due to extreme slipperiness. but thought to let you know one side is like nylon smooth almost plastic or wax cookie sheet slippery. but never slid off the bed or anything like that.The main reason i put the Feel of the blanket in Con is because something in the silky side friggin tears /rips up my cuticles and finger skin around my nails. First night this happened and had a few pulls on my fingers and had strips of skin that kinda hurt. I wasn't sure it was the blanket or not or if my skin nails were bad that week but they never fully healed always had new skin tears on my cuticles. realized it was the blanket from reviews (and not sleeping with it for 2 days and my fingers healed up.) i wasn't bleeding profusely or anything close to that but man that was irritating.2. Cold Touch Durability: after about a month the cold touch stopped working and the blanket had some pilling. Now the last couple weeks the blanket is just another blanket about the same coolness as a thin sheet give or take cold side or not. occasionally I'll get a blip of the cold feeling but not even close to the icey feeling before.3. Long term "coldness" factor: not cooling all night long without moving air. So is it really the blanket working better with the fan at absorbing and dissipating heat or is it just the fan cooling me off. i dunno. but i wake up a lil above comfortable or mildly warm half the time. so throwing this in both con and pro section. Con side for those times i'm warmer than i want to be but will agree those times are usually when i had little to no air circulation. so to me, and thermodynamics, it makes sense doesn't bother me too much.On side note: definitely notice the difference with fan on high on me, or just a lil air moving in the room, or no air. Still feel like this is a lil cooler than thicker blankets (or my coldest blanket overall) and 99% of my blankets are thicker than this so i still will use this over anything else i have. but it could be the placebo effect cuz i'm thinking the blanket is thin and breathable and wicking heat away.4. Pilling. Didn't think it would pill so soon but not surprised. oh well.5. Movement and Size: I got the Full Size bed one but i'm only 5ft 6" and my movements will bunch up the blanket and pull the blanket up off my feet. it doesn't bother me too much, i'm so used to being hot that exposing my feet to moving air actually helps cool me off and i'm comfortable, but i can see where this would irritate others.also, not sure if these are for the sizes they say they are, and due to lightness they bunch up soemtimes and i've woken up a few times barely half covered. this happens with regular blankets too but i'm thinkin possibly more with this due to light weight, plus the bunchiness, AND the size isn't a true FULL bed length and width. not gonna lie i'm so lazy i haven't actually measured and checked it myself but feels barely bigger than a twin and not long enough and i'm not tall at 5'6"6. Price: i'm ok with the price if that cool feeling lasted more than a month but after reading some more honest and reasonably sensible reviews like a lot of 3 stars, i realized i'm not the only one. One poor chap who medically needs cool buys a new one every 2-3 months. I think most are like that and that sucks. So these are probably only worth $10 for us who need coolness factor but expect this to be like a think blanket sheet after a month to 3month.7. the drying instructions: since the coolness factor doesn't last long i'm not really sure its worth the hassle for some to dry in bathtubs and chairs etc. maybe can dry on cool air with no heat will hurt it aside but i'm gonna do that next wash on this and try. but don't do that if you want to possibly return cuz this will eventually warm up or be irritating for some.Overall: Its a nice soft thin blanket thats cooler than most especially under a fan ... well "soft" on the cottony side. i still feel like this blanket is cooler than most due to lightness of material and possibly dissipating heat/wicking heat away better with a fan.

This blanket is very cool. So happy I purchased it for the summer and coupled with fan or air conditioner it’s definitely a winner if you sleep hot. Great purchase my husband loves it also.

I got this blanket a couple of months ago. This one really does the trick. When I'm having a night where I just can't cool down this is a godsend. I've started putting it on my pillow, so I'm actually on here to order pillow cases. Would recommend.
