what parents are saying
I love these! The chick on the front is just the perfect weight for your baby to think they feel you there. (Sep 17, 2019)

Research shows that touch, even simulated touch, calms babies by triggering their self-soothing response. The Zen Swaddle’s lightly weighted areas apply gentle pressure on your baby’s sides and center, mimicking the comfort of being held. This helps newborns snooze through minor disturbances, even startle reflexes. During their test phase, mothers reported that their babies got at least two hours of extra sleep.

Very cute swaddle. It served its purpose as a swaddle but my son broke free often. I had better luck with other swaddles. Feb 16, 2020

Super expensive for something that doesn’t work. Feb 12, 2020

I found these very short. They did not work for us and my son out grew them very fast. Feb 11, 2020

Great swaddle - we put this on our newborn and she started sleeping longer stretches at night (5-6 hours) Feb 10, 2020

My baby sleeps all through the night when wearing this sleep sack Feb 10, 2020

It was a well made product, but it didn't help her to self sooth like some of the other swaddles on the market. Feb 10, 2020

Yes yes yes, 1000% yes. Since the first night home from the hospital, worked like a charm. Now and a year later- in the weighted sacks... still loving this brand!! Feb 08, 2020

By far my favorite swaddle ever. Baby started sleeping after using this! Feb 02, 2020

We loved the SleepSack, but the swaddle never worked quite right for us. It was too big, and our LO would always get his arms out. Jan 29, 2020

This didn’t necessarily help my daughter sleep longer but it still kept her nice and warm Jan 27, 2020

Absolute must have. Only swaddle that helps my baby 3 month sleep through the night. Jan 21, 2020

I was skeptical at first and everyone’s babe will be different but ours really responding well to this swaddle. He for sure like the weighted feeling, I feel like he slept better in this swaddle! Jan 19, 2020

I love the small weight to help him sleep. The first night that he slept through the night, he was wearing this sleep sack. Jan 12, 2020

The small bean bag soothed and comforted my very colicky baby like nothing else. The fabric is soft, thick, and excellent quality. It turns around so the bean bag can be worn on the back as well! Jan 07, 2020

It’s good. It’s not the life-saving swaddle I thought it would be, the fabric is stretchy and has a lot of give, which for my tiny girl means she can wiggle out. It’s better than not swaddling her. Dec 28, 2019

It worked like a swaddle for us, but the beans didn't seem to make a difference. Definitely didn't help my baby sleep any longer like the ads say it will. Dec 19, 2019

We tried the swaddled for a while and loved it so much we also bought the sleep sack. The material is great! Not to thick or warm and the slightly weighted chick was just enough to comfort our LO. Nov 27, 2019
- Lindsay M.

Didn’t work as advertised, however it is a nice option for a cotton sleep sac. I like the adjustable shoulder straps. Because of the zipper going across the bottom and up the side it’s easy to lay out Nov 19, 2019

I can not love this product enough! My daughter would wake up 5+ times a night crying and nothing would soothe her until we bought this. She then went to only waking up for feedings! Oct 13, 2019

Couldn't get baby to sleep in this swaddle. Seemed a little too heavy. Didn't stay in place very well. Good idea just poorly executed. Oct 11, 2019
- Dalia C.

Our one month old did not like it at all:( . We bought it with hopes of him having a good sleep but he actually got very hot in it. We ended up returning it.! Oct 09, 2019

This helped my one month old sleep longer stretches at night. I like how it has an inner pouch for newborns, & fits up to six months. The weighted part isn’t too heavy or bulky & the fabric stretches. Oct 05, 2019
- Emily S.
Johnson City, New York
I wanted to love this and it seems like a great idea. My baby wiggles and the weighted parts would move and upset her. You have to open swaddle to change diaper at night, waking baby more. Oct 04, 2019

Used it with two kids and it didn’t affect sleep for better or worse at all. Oct 01, 2019

I used this on our little guy starting at 4 weeks old. It took a couple of weeks but he started sleeping really well. Sep 17, 2019
- Molly V.

Helped my baby sleep through the night in 3 nights! However, they can break out of the swaddle, so make sure to try the "blanket trick" underneath so they stay put! Sep 11, 2019

Yes & No. I didn’t see much difference with this compared with other sleep sacks. Yes because it helped transition her from Merlin’s Magic Suit. No because it’s kind of too expensive. Sep 06, 2019

I love this swaddle. I have tried many many swaddles and this by far exceeds all of the rest. It provides the security and comfort my baby needs. Sep 05, 2019

The weighted section give baby comfort of being help without having to he held. My girl still sleeps so much better with hers then regular swaddles. Jan 29, 2020

My daughter got her arms loose and the chest velcro was around her neck and face. Never used again Jan 20, 2020

I did not like this product. It was too awkward to swaddle together. I don’t think the beanbag did much of anything imitation wise. Jan 02, 2020

This sleep sack worked the best with my baby. It’s easy zip and soft. May 30, 2019

The two-stage sizing makes this helpful for longer than most swaddles. It's easy to wash and dry, with a soft texture. Mar 25, 2019

Great quality and design. It seemed to work on my baby here and there but it wasnt a consistent enough pattern for me to say it was all the swaddle...then she grew out of it :/ Nov 01, 2018
- Allie B.

I love that this fits newborns and almost toddlers! I noticed a difference immediately using the weighted swaddle vs not. I’ve lent this to multiple friends to try & they found it to work as well! Mar 10, 2018

This swaddle worked just fine. I didn’t notice any difference with the weighted bean compared to when we used a cheaper swaddle. I wouldn’t re-purchase. Mar 05, 2018

My 5 month old doesn't really like this, although I have friends who swear by them! Feb 04, 2018

I like the idea but my baby could work out of this more than other brands of velcro swaddles, it just didn't seem to work that well when actually put to the test. Jan 23, 2018
- Felicia N.

I don't get all these people who say these things are a miracle. It did not work for my baby and I tried for 3 months, totally a waste. Nov 06, 2017

I returned this product because I didn’t like the way that Velcro went together. My baby was able to kick out of it and it didn’t really help her sleep. Oct 18, 2017

A great swaddle that provides real weight on the chest, just like mom's hand. Our kids also loved this one. Oct 06, 2017
- Molly C.
Mansfield, Texas
I really liked it, & feel like if you get it when the baby is young enough it's wonderful and helps! We got about a month use, then she rolled over in her sleep so it wasn't comfortable to lay on. Jun 14, 2017
- Laura B.

We have two and works just like pretty much all the other swaddles. It's fine but def doesn't get us any more sleep. May 03, 2017

Love this weighted swaddle and so does my newborn. He instantly calms down when we place him in this. Has a small pocket for newborn legs, so fits babies starting at 7lbs. Jun 06, 2014
