A cozy-season guide to caring for your Bearaby weighted blanket, including expert washing tips and how HappyNest can help keep select Nappers fresh.
Your Weighted Blanket’s Guide to a Fresher Fall
Cooler nights, earlier sunsets, and more time curled up on the couch can only mean one thing: cozy season is here. And if your fall setup includes a Bearaby weighted blanket, a little proper care can help keep it fresh, soft, and ready for every movie marathon and afternoon nap.
The good news? Bearaby makes caring for many of its weighted blankets surprisingly straightforward. Even better, Bearaby recommends HappyNest in its Care Instructions FAQs as a laundry option for customers looking for professional help washing select Nappers.
According to Bearaby, the Cotton Napper is machine washable. Because weighted blankets put considerably more strain on laundry equipment than everyday clothing or bedding, Bearaby recommends checking your washer and dryer's weight capacity before getting started.
For a Cotton Napper, Bearaby recommends:
Bearaby's Cotton Napper product instructions also recommend avoiding top-loading washing and drying machines.
The cooling Tree Napper, made with TENCEL™ Lyocell and organic cotton, follows essentially the same routine. Wash it separately in cold water on a delicate or permanent-press cycle with mild detergent, then tumble dry on low. Avoid bleach and fabric softener, and don't hang it to dry.
Again, don't rush the drying process. Bearaby notes that a Tree Napper may need more than one low-heat drying cycle to dry completely.
Here's where the care instructions change. Bearaby recommends dry cleaning the Velvet Napper rather than machine washing it to protect its delicate eco-velvet fabric and maintain its softness.
Always check the care instructions for your specific Bearaby product before washing, especially since different materials and blanket styles can require different treatment.
Yes, for select Bearaby blankets. In fact, Bearaby lists HappyNest directly in the Care Instructions section of its FAQs as one of its recommended U.S. laundry partners familiar with washing Bearaby weighted blankets. Bearaby specifically notes that HappyNest accepts Cotton Nappers and Tree Nappers.
Bearaby also recommends copying and pasting your Napper's care instructions into the "Additional Laundry Instructions" section when scheduling your HappyNest pickup. That way, the specific care requirements travel right along with your blanket.
We love being a trusted resource for Bearaby owners who want to keep their favorite cozy-season blanket fresh without wrestling a weighted Napper into their own washer.
With HappyNest, your laundry is picked up from your door, professionally washed, dried, folded, and delivered back the next day.
