  • Game changer. After 4 weeks, my baby wasn’t sleeping more than 20 min at a time and I had to often hold him all night. The 1st night we used this, he slept 3hrs. Gentle weight was perfect! Feb 21, 2023

  • This was okay, it kinda of made me feel weird that it was weighted and using it on my baby. Baby was always able to reach hands out and would wake up with it over her head so we stopped using. Feb 19, 2023

    A game changer for us! My kids loved the security of a hand on their chest to go to sleep and this filled the void. They slept so much better in this swaddle than others. Sep 16, 2022

  • Love the weight of this, has helped my little one sleep longer stretches at night! Aug 27, 2022

  • The weighted front + the velcro wrap is a great combination for baby sleep! My daughter loved being held and this helped sooth her and keep her from getting her hands out/waking herself up. Mar 09, 2022

  • My son was a pretty good sleeper from the get go but this swaddle kept him sleep 5/6 hours straight as a newborn. It was a lifesaver, as my husband and I were able to catch up on sleep. Feb 24, 2021

    Love this swaddle. Great to have the the two sizes for the pouches. It fits tiny babies. They are durable and can last for more than one baby. Feb 22, 2021

  • I had high hopes for this swaddle but it I cannot get it tight. The one side is too long so it's hard to get it underneath baby tightly. My son gets his arms out every time and wakes up. Dec 20, 2020

  • No different than any other swaddle. Did not make a difference in how my baby sleeps. Disappointed after reading the rave reviews on the site. Aug 25, 2020

    We found the velcro wasn't super sticky though and my wiggly baby ended up with part of the swaddle wing covering his face on more than one occasion. We were too scared to use it after that. Aug 05, 2020

  • Our daughter always napped for 1.5-3 hour stretches using this. She loved to have her arms up so we used another swaddle for nights, but this was our go-to for naps! Jun 17, 2020

  • Baby didn't care for it and could easy escape the swaddle. Apr 23, 2020

  • Desperate for sleep we bought every swaddle under the sun. Unfortunately, even with the little weight on her chest. It did not work out for us to get her to sleep any longer. Apr 20, 2020

  • Got as a gift and couldnt be happier! Thinking about ordering in every size Feb 13, 2020

  • MUST HAVE! The best swaddle we tried. The fabric is nice and stretchy and allows you to get the baby tightly swaddled. Dec 13, 2019

  • I don't know how I survived my first baby without this. It was a total game changer with my second and I have bought this for every baby shower since I discovered it. MUST HAVE!!!! Nov 18, 2019

  • I LOVE this swaddle. My 1 month old takes longer naps when she’s in this swaddle vs the traditional, non-weighted ones. It’s super soft and easy to use. Will definitely be trying the Zen Sack next. Oct 05, 2019

  • My daughter could kick the weighted part off very easily. The design only works for babies who just sit still while they sleep. Did not work for us. Aug 20, 2019

  • BEST THING EVER. My daughter slept twice as long when we used it Jun 18, 2019

  • I was not impressed with this swaddle. It did not take long for my son to figure out he could kick out of it no matter how well I secured the velcro closure. Apr 03, 2019

  • This really did not help with my son's sleep. He was still up multiple times a night even after using it for weeks. went back to halo sleep sacks because they were warmer. Apr 02, 2019

    I love that this swaddle can be used for a range of ages/ sizes. The bean bags provide just a bit of pressure for comfort like your hand normally would. The swaddle seems pretty secure Mar 28, 2019

  • The only swaddle I use, it got my baby, who loves being held, to sleep in her own crib. The velcro is not hard and I love that there two sizes built it. Feb 09, 2019

    Amazing! LOVE the two sizes in here for when baby gets bigger. Love the weights both on the chest and the sides. Helps baby sleep all night! Jan 16, 2019

  • We have the swaddle and several sleep sacks. These were the only thing we could use to transition our 2 month old from an inclined sleeper to her bassinet. She constantly wanted to be held for sleep. Jan 02, 2019

  • Have the sleep sac version of this, which we love! Cozy and the weighted egg feels like mommas hand. Not too heavy and washes well so far. Sep 06, 2018

  • FREAKING LIFE SAVER!!! My LO wouldn't sleep anywhere but in my arms until we got this swaddle Aug 16, 2018

  • Love this swaddle! Aug 07, 2018

  • We adored this swaddle. Definitely recommend over the Halo. We liked that it wasn't quite as bulky, the material and velcro was much easier to keep our baby swaddled as tight as we liked. Jul 09, 2018

  • This did nothing for my son. Spent $30 and it was no different than using a regular swaddle for him. I didn't like how all the fabric bunched up by his face so I don't think I would use it again. May 27, 2018

  • This thing is amazing. It was the only thing that would help my breast fed daughter sleep. It saved me! May 10, 2018

    Have read nothing but great reviews on this swaddle. I love the feel of it and I hope it works well! Apr 12, 2018

  • Totally worth it for my 2 1/2 month old! I'm not sure if the slight weight makes a difference or not, but it's a great swaddle.It can grow with them which is a plus. Feb 11, 2018

  • My baby did not love this. I think the weighted top was almost too heavy, especially for a newborn. It did not help her to sleep longer as advertised. Feb 09, 2018

  • When I originally got this swaddle I thought it was too complicated and hated it but after a couple of practice wraps I got the hang of it and it was the ONLY swaddle my son loved!! Jan 21, 2018

    Our son loves this swaddle, it has a weighted top and sides so he feels compressed when he is wrapped. Works great until they are ready to flip; once they flip just un-swaddle their arms. Jan 09, 2018

    Love the weighted part - keeps baby calm at night. But the velcro swaddle does not keep him restrained at all, he gets his arms out immediately. We layer this over our miracle blanket. Nov 14, 2017

  • Our son was able to sleep comfortably in this swaddle. Our son is not very large, and he outgrew the length of this swaddle by the time he was 3.5 months. We did like this product while it fit him. Oct 20, 2017
