Finding The Best Weighted Stuffed Animal for Cuddling | Warmies®

There are hundreds of thousands of stuffed animals out there. There are big ones, tiny ones, and everything in between. But a lot of these stuffed animals are basic and don't carry any weight (literally!). Run-of-the-mill stuffed animals just sit there and don't really offer much in function or versatility. You may be thinking that stuffed animals don't necessarily have a purpose, but they should. That's where Warmies comes in!

Warmies is all about making the best Weighted Stuffed Animal Plush Toy that gives people comfort and joy. These plush toys are super cute and weighted to give you the comfort you need. This article will give you all of the information you need to decide if weighted or unweighted stuffed animals are right for you. We'll even showcase the top ten best stuffed animals for cuddling.

Are Warmies stuffed animals weighted or unweighted? 

Most of the stuffed animal toys out on the market are unweighted and not made to be microwaved. The Warmies Weighted Stuffed Animal, however, are all weighted and microwave-safe. Having a Weighted Stuffed Plush Toy is growing in popularity as they have great benefits for adults and children alike. Many customers agree, Warmies are the best stuffed animals for cuddling adults!

What makes a stuffed animal weighted?

Most of the weighted stuffed animals on the market are filled with poly-pellets, which are pellets made from dense plastic that gives an item weight. In the case of Warmies, our weighted stuffed animals do not include poly-pellets. Heating up plastic in a microwave can leak toxins into its surroundings which is not good for anyone. Instead, Warmies plush products are filled with dried flaxseed and layers of fabric to add weight. 

Is it good to Cuddle with weighted stuffed animals?

There's really nothing better than cuddling up with weighted stuffed animals. The average unweighted stuffed animal is cute and nice, but they don't give you the same added comfort that a nice hefty Warmies can. The added weight and extra bonus of lavender scent found in Warmies helps reduce anxiety in both children and adults. 

Do Weighted stuffed animals help with sleep? 

The feeling of a weighted plush toy is like a hug and can even help you fall asleep faster than a regular plush toy with no weight at all. The weight from these products, similar to weighted blankets, can help reduce your heartrate and calm the body. It's similar to the feeling of receiving a hug, where the pressure makes you feel comforted and at ease. This makes for ideal sleeping conditions, especially if you usually have trouble sleeping in general.

Do weighted stuffed animals help with anxiety?

Yes, weighted stuffed animals are a great way to help with anxiety. While studies and research in the benefits of weighted stuffed animals is limited, there have been extensive studies in the benefits of weighted blankets and their effects on anxiety. While they're not the same, weighted stuffed animals and blankets have similar intentions. The pressure of the weight helps reduce the heartrate and rapid breathing, thus reducing the agitating symptoms of anxiety.
