Best Weighted Blanket For Sleep-Expert recommendations to choose

I researched the best weighted blanket as my doctor recommended one to help with my insomnia and anxiety. i have been experiencing really bad sleep issues lately, tossing and turning all night and waking up feeling exhausted. i went through reviews from trusted sources like Wirecutter and Sleep Foundation and after comparing many options these two kept coming up as the top choices:

Yescool Weighted Blanket

Alomidds Weighted Blanket

however i am having trouble deciding which one would be better for me and i would love to get your expert advice and hoping maybe some sleep therapists or people who’ve used weighted blankets on this forum can also share their advice.i usually sleep on my side and run hot at night so something breathable would be ideal for me? Any suggestions or advice would be appreciated.Thanks in advance

FWIW: I also sleep on my side and run hot at night. What I do is fold the weighted blanket in half lengthwise and arrange things so that my back isn’t covered. That helps me maintain a comfortable temperature.

Hope you find something that works for you.
