Your Partner Grabbed a Nitori Cooling Blanket in Singapore. It Weighs 0.79 kg. Weighted Ones Start Near 5 kg

Your partner comes home from Nitori with a reversible cooling blanket for your Singapore bedroom. The tag is honest about what it is: a light cool-touch layer. On Nitori's own product page, the single-size N Cool SP lists a product weight of 0.79 kg. That is not a weighted blanket.

Here is what a live check of the brands people actually search next to "weighted blanket Singapore" shows:

Hooga, Epitex, Muji, IKEA and Nitori sell cooling bedding in Singapore. On the pages checked for this piece, none of them currently list a weighted blanket SKU on their Singapore sites.
Nitori publishes exact product weights under 1 kg. The N Cool SP single is listed at 0.79 kg. The N Cool WSP single, which adds a PCM backing, is listed at 0.96 kg.
A cooling weighted blanket is a different product. Deep pressure usually starts around the 5 kg to 12 kg range that Epitex itself describes in a 2022 explainer. Cooling fabric alone does not create that load.

What do Hooga, Epitex, Muji, IKEA and Nitori actually sell?

This is a factual shelf check, not a "best of" ranking. Specs below come from each brand's Singapore product page at the time of writing.

| Brand (SG) | What the page sells | Listed product weight | Cooling claim on page | Q-Max listed? | |---|---|---|---|---| | Hooga Remy Snow Yarn | Microfibre cooling blanket, 140 x 190 cm or 180 x 190 cm | Not listed as a weighted fill | Snow yarn / cooling nylon, moisture wicking | No | | Hooga Coryn | Phase-change microfibre quilt, Single / Queen / King | Not listed as a weighted fill | PCM shell + cooling nylon | No | | Epitex Softicool Icecool | Reversible cooling blanket, Single 140 x 190 cm, Queen 190 x 200 cm | Lightweight microfill (not weighted) | Softicool cooling knit, heat-absorbing | No | | Muji | Cooling blanket (SKU JC82CC6S) | Not listed as weighted | Sold as a cooling blanket | No | | Nitori N Cool SP | Reversible cool-touch blanket, 140 x 190 cm | 0.79 kg | Cool-touch lining, antibacterial | No | | Nitori N Cool WSP | Reversible cool-touch + PCM, 140 x 190 cm | 0.96 kg | Cool-touch lining, PCM backing | No | | IKEA Singapore | Duvets, quilt covers, throws | No weighted blanket SKU found on SG site | Standard bedding, not a cool-touch weighted line | No |

IKEA does sell a weighted blanket called ODONVIDE on some other country sites (for example a 10 kg, 150 x 200 cm listing in Latvia). That SKU was not on the IKEA Singapore duvet and blanket ranges checked for this article. Epitex publishes a helpful blog on what a weighted blanket is, including the 5 kg to 12 kg glass or plastic microbead range, but its Softicool shop collection is cooling sheets and cooling blankets, not a weighted product.

Hooga's Remy was listed around S$79.90 to S$99.90 (on sale about S$55.93 to S$69.93). Coryn's single size displayed about S$90.30 against a S$129 regular price. Epitex Icecool reversible blankets were listed from S$199 to S$269. Muji's cooling blanket was S$83. Nitori's SP was on sale at S$30.30 (from S$37.90); the WSP was S$49.90. Prices move, so treat them as a snapshot.

Why does that gap matter in Singapore heat?

A Straits Times report on a study of 150 residents found Singapore bedrooms average 28.4°C at night. In that climate, shoppers often reach for a cooling blanket first, which is rational. Heat is the obvious problem.

Deep pressure is a second job. A weighted blanket uses evenly distributed fill (often glass micro-beads) so the load sits across the body. That is why a 0.79 kg cool-touch throw and a 7 kg cooling weighted blanket can share a "cooling" label and still feel nothing alike in bed.

If you only overheat, a light cooling blanket from Nitori, Muji, Epitex or Hooga can be the right buy. If you also want the hug-like settle of weight, you need a product that publishes a real adult weight tier, not only a cool face fabric. Our earlier guide on cooling blanket vs weighted blanket walks through that choice without the brand table.

What should you compare before you buy?

Skip "best quality" slogans. Compare the fields that change how you sleep:

Job: cooling only, weight only, or both.
Listed weight in kg, matched to about 10% of body weight for a single sleeper.
Fill type: glass micro-beads vs plastic pellets vs plain fibre fill.
Cool-touch evidence: a lab figure such as Q-Max, or only marketing language.
Trial and local support: can you sleep on it for a few weeks and return it in Singapore?

NightFury is open about its own row on that list. The specifications page publishes an SGS-verified cool-touch result of Q-Max 0.368 W/cm² (JIS L 1927), bamboo-lyocell over a cooling knit, borosilicate glass micro-beads, and shop weights of 5 kg, 7 kg and 9 kg. It is sold as a cooling weighted blanket designed in Singapore for humid nights, with a 30-day sleep trial and free islandwide delivery on the shop page.

Kosy is another Singapore brand that sells a bamboo "Iced" cooling weighted blanket with glass beads and weights from 3 kg (kids) up to 11 kg (king), from about S$199 on its product page. Include it in the same checklist. Fair shopping means reading every brand's numbers, including ours.

A 10-minute shopping script for you and your partner

Write down the job you each need: cool, pressure, or both.
Open the five search brands above if you like their stores. Confirm whether the page lists a kg weight in the adult weighted range.
If it does not, treat it as a cooling blanket and price it that way.
For any cooling weighted blanket shortlist, check fill, Q-Max or equivalent, trial days, and ages 6+ safety (never for babies or toddlers; the child must be able to move the blanket alone).
Sleep on the winner inside a real trial window before you decide.

If both heat and unsettled nights show up in your bedroom, start with the checklist on specifications, then pick a size and weight on shop and use the 30-day trial to see whether the combined job actually sticks.
