Frequently Asked Questions
Which weight is right for me?
How much is shipping?
If you're in Australia, expedited shipping is FREE!
We also offer fast shipping to NZ for a small flat fee. You can review your order total at checkout before confirming.
What size is the weighted blanket?
Twin Size: 48" x 78" (122cm x 198cm)
Note: This is not the same size as your typical comforter, and instead covers only the top of your bed. If we made them larger to drape over the sides of your bed, the weight of the overhang would pull it off the bed.
How do I wash my weighted blanket?
The Gravid weighted blanket (and outer removable covers) can be washed in your machine on a cool, gentle cycle with a small amount of liquid detergent.
Tumble dry on a cool setting until slightly damp, and hang to complete the drying process.
When can I expect my weighted blanket?
Once your order is placed, we ship it out from our Wetherill Park, NSW warehouse within 1 business day. We ship by Australia Post.
You will receive an email with your tracking number once processed, usually within 24 hours of placing your order.
What makes Gravid different from other weighted blanket companies?
Simple answer: premium materials and innovative design.
Gravid weighted blankets are made using 100% cotton. Breathable, high-tenacity fibres give it high strength properties.
For weight, Gravid weighted blankets use non-toxic, micro-rounded glass beads that have a diameter of 1mm. This is the optimal size of bead to keep the weight evenly distributed across the surface of your body. Glass beads are the best material for people with any type of auditory, sensory or physical sensitivities. They are quiet, making them ideal in a bedroom setting.
We invented ZipperTech: A zipper mechanism that goes around the full perimeter of your blanket to keep your Gravid weighted blanket perfectly attached to its cover. No sagging, no bunching.
Gravid weighted blankets also feature a double-stitched grid design along with durable construction to ensure the weight stays evenly distributed for a lifetime. No leaking beads, no shifting weight...ever.
What is the return policy?
Once you receive your blanket, you have 14 nights to try it out.
The Gravid weighted blanket uses deep touch pressure stimulation to help you relax and drift to sleep. However, it can take some time for your body to completely adjust to your new weighted blanket.
We recommend that you ease into it by using it a few hours at a time (while watching TV, reading a book, etc...) before using it for a full nights rest.
We highly recommend you sleep with it for at least a week to give your body a chance to adjust. If for any reason you are not satisfied with the item, contact us and we will get your refund process started, hassle-free.
