How did I evaluate the weighted blankets?

1. I read a variety of reviews to get ideas about popular weighted blankets to try
2. I ordered six of the most popular weighted blankets available from Amazon
3. I slept under each weighted blanket every night for a week
4. I took several naps with each weighted blanket
5. I lay under each weighted blanket when I was feeling anxious or stressed
6. I considered how well the blanket “hugged” me and calmed me down
7. I considered how rested I felt after waking up
8. I shook each blanket to see whether the filling shifted or made noise
