Frequently Asked Questions

How heavy is a Weighted Friend?
Each one weighs 2.4 kg, spread gently through the body so it feels grounding rather than heavy in one spot. At 50 cm tall, it's big enough for a proper hug.
What age is it suitable for?
Ages 3 and over. We don't recommend it for children under 3 because of the weight, and adult supervision is recommended for young children. Plenty of teens and grown-ups love them too.
Can my child sleep with it?
We do not recommend Weighted Friends for use during sleep. Keep them out of cots and bassinets, and never place one over a child’s face, neck or chest. Follow the supplied safety instructions and supervise use. If you are unsure whether a 2.4 kg weighted toy is suitable for your child, seek individual advice from a qualified health professional before purchasing.
Is it a therapy or medical product?
No. Weighted Friends are comfort products, not medical devices. Many families use them as part of a calming routine; if your child has specific sensory needs, your occupational therapist can advise on what suits them best.
Which character should I choose?
Pick the personality that feels right: Dino is brave and gentle, Axel is calm and curious, Hamish is loyal and a little cheeky, Coco is relaxed and reassuring, and Sully is the expert at slowing down. Each is sold separately.
