I do not understand the love for these weighted blankets. I cant stand the weight on me. But my daughter loves this. She loves the balls, they kinda do not stay in one place and so she is has to put them back to their spots as they do roll around. But she likes to fuss over things that would drive me nuts. she loves the compresson on her - she says the blanket does make her sleep better - lord knows she is hard enough to wake up, now she sleeps like the dead. So all in all the blanket is worth the money for those who perfer this kind of compressing weight.
