Frequently Asked Questions
What are Moxie blankets filled with?
Every Moxie blanket is filled with recycled, non-toxic glass beads—evenly distributed to provide gentle, calming pressure without bulk or noise. No plastic fillers. Ever.
How do I wash my Moxie blanket?
Moxie blankets are machine washable on a gentle cycle. We recommend cold water, mild detergent, and tumble dry low or air dry. Avoid bleach or high heat to protect the soft Minky fabric.
Are these blankets safe for kids?
Yes! Our blankets are designed with little ones in mind. We recommend them for ages 3 and up and for children weighing at least 40 lbs. Always supervise young children when introducing a weighted blanket to ensure safe use.
How do I choose the right weight?
A good rule of thumb is to choose a blanket that’s about 10% of the user’s body weight. For kids, 5–7 lbs is often a great start. For adults, 10–15 lbs tends to feel best. If in doubt, lighter is often better to start.
Do your blankets come with covers?
No, and that’s the beauty of it. Moxie blankets are single-piece, fully washable, and super easy to care for—no separate duvet covers needed.
What conditions do weighted blankets help with?
Weighted blankets are especially helpful for people experiencing:
- Anxiety
- ADHD or sensory processing challenges
- PTSD
- Autism
- Insomnia or general restlessness
They work by activating Deep Pressure Stimulation (DPS), which can reduce cortisol (stress hormone) and increase serotonin to promote calm and better sleep.
Do you offer returns?
Yes! We offer returns within 14 days of delivery. If your item is defective, we’ll cover the return shipping. For all other returns, you’ll be responsible for shipping, and the blanket must be in like-new condition.
Where are Moxie blankets made?
All Moxie blankets are lovingly handcrafted in the USA using high-quality materials that are family- and eco-friendly.
