Here are our top 10 picks to make the most of these summer trends and to freshen up your space without overcommitting or breaking your budget. Bring nature in With the warmer temperatures and the vibrant colours of nature returning, there is a desire to blend the line where your indoor space ends and the great outdoors begin.

Bearaby vs. Silk & Snow: Two popular chunky knit weighted blankets, compared
When you buy through our links, Business Insider may earn an affiliate commission. Learn more Bearaby Cotton Napper (15 lbs) Bearaby's Cotton Napper is the original knit weighted blanket. It's made with certified organic cotton and is available in four weights and eight colors. Silk & Snow Hand Knitted Weighted Blanket Silk & Snow's Hand Knitted Weighted Blanket is a looser, more relaxed version of the knit weighted blanket. It comes in five weights and eight colors. The best weighted blankets provide relaxing weight to help you relax, fall asleep, and stay asleep, but they're not always the most attractive. That's why we're drawn to knit weighted designs because they combine the soothing weight and our desire for aesthetics — they look beautifully draped over the couch or the bed. Plus, they get their heft from heavyweight fabric, so you won't have to worry about feeling glass or lead beads shift around. Bearaby is the original creator of the knit weighted blanket, but Silk & Snow has emerged with a high quality alternative. The Bearaby Cotton Napper and the Silk & Snow Hand Knitted Weighted Blanket do share a similar design, but subtle differences set these two blankets apart. We've compiled their similarities and differences to help you pick the best knit weighted blanket for you. Bearaby vs Silk & Snow: Overview Bearaby vs Silk & Snow: Design When I was testing these two weighted blankets, I noticed that the fabric of the Silk & Snow blanket had a looser, more distressed weave. The fabric itself is also looser, so it has a relaxed look and feel. I noticed that this loose knit also means the loops are prone to stretching out during use. It's also altogether chunkier than the Bearaby blanket. On the other hand, Bearaby's Cotton Napper has a tighter knit with a plump cotton fabric. When placing the two blankets side by side, there's an obvious difference between the designs of the fabric. The Silk & Snow Knitted Weighted Blanket skews larger than Bearaby's Cotton Napper. Even when the weights are the same, the Silk & Snow blanket is one to eight inches longer and wider than the Bearaby blanket. You'll get more coverage from Silk & Snow, but the Bearaby blanket is more compact for tossing on the couch. In addition to the personal throw sizes, Bearaby offers its blanket in queen and king sizes too, which weigh in at 20 and 25 pounds respectively. Also of note, Bearaby's Cotton Napper is both GOTS and OEKO-TEX certified, which means it's organic and free of harmful substances like chemicals or pesticides. Silk & Snow's Knitted Weighted Blanket is made with natural cotton and OEKO-TEX certified, but it isn't certified organic. Both are available in eight colors. Silk & Snow's color range skews very neutral and earthy. Bearaby's is also quite muted, but standout colors include a matcha green and a light pink in cotton and a lavender for the Tencel range. Bearaby vs Silk & Snow: Comfort I love knit weighted blankets for their calming pressure without the feel of glass or lead beads. Both of these blankets are extraordinarily comfortable and helped me relax at the end of a long day, whether I kept it on the couch or brought it to bed with me. Plus, the knit construction means the blanket is breathable, so there weren't any worries about overheating. In general, I found Bearaby's Cotton Napper to be more comfortable than the Silk & Snow Knitted Weighted Blanket. As I mentioned in the design section, the Cotton Napper has a tighter knit with smaller cotton fabric. I preferred this feel, as it kept my temperature regulated and provided even weight across my body. The weight distribution felt less even with the Silk & Snow Knitted Weighted Blanket, since there were more empty spaces in the blanket weave. The large holes in the Silk & Snow blanket also aggravated one of the few downsides of knit weighted blankets: my toes and fingers got stuck in the knit as I used the blanket. This happened with the Bearaby Cotton Napper, too, but the smaller weave meant it was less prevalent. Bearaby vs Silk & Snow: Care The Cotton Napper and Knitted Weighted Blanket are both technically machine washable, but be sure to check your washer to ensure it can support their weight. Both brands recommend washing the blanket in cold water and tumble drying on low. For instance, Bearaby recommends taking blankets 20 pounds and heavier to a commercial laundromat. Also, be careful not to hang either blanket to dry since it will stretch the loops. Silk & Snow notes that their blankets should not be cared for in top loading washers and dryers. For more information on caring for your weighted blanket, see our article on how to wash weighted blankets. Bearaby vs Silk & Snow: Value When comparing the two brands based on their value, Silk & Snow comes out on top. All of its bedding products are covered by a one-year warranty, which covers any manufacturing defects that appear after normal use. The Knitted Weighted Blanket also comes with a 100-night trial, so you're able to try it out and return it if you aren't a fan. Bearaby has no warranty for its weighted blankets, and its return period is only 30 days. Only unwashed items are eligible for return, and a fee is deducted from your return depending on the weight of blanket that you're returning. Comparing price, a 15-pound Bearaby blanket costs $249 while the same 15-pound Silk & Snow blanket is $230, and is frequently marked down to just under $200. The difference is marginal, but noticeable, especially when there is a sale. Between the price and the policies, if you're trying a weighted blanket for the first time and aren't sure if you'll like it, Silk & Snow is the best choice for its trial and warranty policy. The bottom line While the Bearaby Cotton Napper and the Silk & Snow Knitted Weighted Blanket have similar designs, they have subtle differences that set them apart. If you're looking for the ultimate comfort in a weighted blanket, I recommend opting for Bearaby's Cotton Napper. See our full Bearaby Napper review for more insights. For the best value, including a cheaper cost and better trial and warranty policies, I recommend the Silk & Snow Knitted Weighted Blanket. Either way, you'll sleep easy with either of these knit weighted blankets.

I sleep hot and on my side — the $1,000 Silk & Snow Hybrid mattress keeps me comfortable
When you think of the Great White North, mattresses probably don't come to mind. Since its launch in 2017, Silk & Snow has tried to change that with affordable beds fully made and manufactured in Canada. The company started with an all-foam mattress and has since expanded to offer more, including bed frames, organic mattresses, and even a couch. The Silk & Snow Hybrid is in the middle of the company's mattress offerings. It offers better support than the budget-friendly all-foam line and costs less than its organic beds. It's reasonably priced for a mattress with zoned pocket coils that supply targeted support where you need it most. The cooling cover fabric and gel-infused memory foam lend excellent temperature regulation to the Hybrid. It's offered in two firmness options: a medium-firm for back and stomach sleepers and the plush for side sleepers, which is the comfort level I tested. After sleeping on the Silk & Snow Hybrid for a month and putting it through several objective tests — comparing it to the 100+ models I've tried for our best mattress guide — the plush is a great competitively priced option for side sleepers seeking pressure relief without overheating. Back and stomach sleepers will want to consider the medium-firm version. Below, I'll cover what sets it apart, who should consider buying it, and what alternatives you might want instead. Construction The Silk & Snow Hybrid Mattress combines CertiPUR-US-certified foams with zoned-support pocket coils to supply supportive pressure relief. All the materials are Canadian-sourced. The cover is made with an antimicrobial and proprietary cooling fabric to dissipate heat and wick away moisture. The top three foam layers consist of a plush 1-inch quilted memory foam layer, a 2-inch high-density cooling gel-infused memory foam for deep pressure point relief, and a 2-inch high-density transitional foam. Below the foam is the zoned-support pocket coil base with a firmer middle zone for proper spinal alignment. The coils are made of Canadian steel. An extra-firm foam perimeter surrounds the coils to prevent sagging. The Silk & Snow Hybrid is available in six standard sizes, ranging from twin to California King, and two firmnesses: Medium-Firm and Plush. I tested a queen with the Plush firmness, which costs $300 more than the Medium-Firm but also has two extra inches of plush foam for an overall thickness of 14 inches. Setup The Silk & Snow Hybrid Mattress is delivered to your door in a mini fridge-sized box. At 110 pounds, it's hefty, so I suggest getting help removing the packaging and putting it on your bed frame. Notwithstanding the weight, the unboxing process is simple and quick. I just needed five minutes to remove the mattress from the box and the plastic it was vacuum-sealed in. Once free from the packaging, the Silk & Snow Hybrid quickly expanded to nearly full size. I noticed a mild odor initially, common with beds featuring foam, though the smell was gone a few hours later when I went to bed. Unfortunately, Silk & Snow doesn't offer in-home setup ("white-glove delivery"). The bed does have handles, which makes it easier to adjust once on the bed. Comfort Comfort preferences vary depending on your sleep position and body type. I'm a heavier fella with an athletic build, 6 feet and 225 pounds, if you simply must know. My favorite position is on my side, but I can sleep in any position. As with most side sleepers, I like my mattresses on the softer side, and the Silk & Snow Plush Hybrid delivered with a softer-than-average feel (4 out of 10). I tended to side sleep on the Silk & Snow and loved it. The zoned support helped keep my spine aligned while relieving pressure points. I didn't wake with noticeable soreness during the month I slept on the Plush Hybrid. However, my sleep quality scores didn't back up my comfort. As measured by my Garmin watch, I have an average sleep score of 60 out of 100. On the Silk & Snow, my average score was 59. I also noticed that I had trouble falling and staying asleep, possibly due to life circumstances. Back and stomach sleepers and heavier side sleepers might want to consider the Medium-Firm option, as I wasn't particularly comfortable when I tried to sleep on my stomach or back because I felt like I sank in too much, leaving my spine misaligned. The Plush is mainly a side-sleeper mattress. Heat dissipation The Silk & Snow Hybrid Mattress did an outstanding job of staying cool. I used a laser thermometer to measure the surface temperature before lying down, right after getting up, and two minutes after. Of the mattresses I've tested, the average temperature when I get up is 89.5 degrees Fahrenheit. Yet, the Silk & Snow was much cooler at 87 degrees. However, it only dipped 10 degrees in the following two minutes, while most mattresses decrease by 12 degrees. While this is mildly concerning, it's arguably more important that a mattress remain cool while you're on it, and this is where the Plush Hybrid excels. Also, subjectively, I felt comfortable on it, even though I tend to overheat on most mattresses. It's a superb bed for hot sleepers. Edge support When lying or sitting on the side of a mattress, you want to feel comfortable. Good edge support helps with this and makes getting into and out of bed easier. The Silk & Snow Plush Hybrid's edge support is better than average, thanks to the firm border foam. To test edge support, I sit on the side of the bed and measure how much it sags. On average, mattresses compact 3 to 4 inches, and this bed was 3.5 inches. I also lie on the side and roll until I fall off. If my body gets beyond a 45-degree angle with the bed, then the mattress has good edge support. I could get well beyond that with the Plush Hybrid. Plus, I felt comfortable on the edge, not like I would fall off at all. Taking these test results together, the Silk & Snow Plush Hybrid is a good choice for those who value edge support. Motion isolation I put my phone's vibrometer app on one side of a mattress and drop a 15-pound bowling ball on the other side to measure motion isolation. This is designed to mimic the vibrations you might feel as your sleep partner flops around in the night. The Silk & Snow registered a 6.2 on the vibrometer, which is better than all but a handful of the mattresses I've tested. The pocket coils seem to be doing their job. When my cat jumped on the bed at night, I couldn't feel her until she put her nose on my nose. Unfortunately, no amount of motion isolation can help with that. The impressive motion isolation and the above-average edge support make the Silk & Snow Hybrid Mattress an excellent choice for couples. Trial period and warranty Silk & Snow's 365-night sleep trial is among the longest I've seen. You're encouraged to sleep on the mattress for at least 30 nights. If you find it isn't right for you, you can return it for a full refund. Per the return policy, the bed must be in donatable condition, free of stains, tears, and other soiling/odors. This is because the company donates 95% of its returned mattresses to people in need. The other 5% are recycled. You can test the Silk & Snow beds in 18 showrooms if you live in or near Canada. Unfortunately, they aren't in showrooms outside Canada. Silk & Snow mattresses are backed by a 15-year warranty. This covers flaws in workmanship and permanent indentations over 2 inches deep. Repairs or replacements are free in the first 10 years of the warranty. Afterward, you're on the hook for 75% of the original purchase price. The warranty is void if you use an improper foundation, move the mattress from the country of purchase, or if the law tag is missing. For the full details, visit the Silk & Snow warranty page. Cons to consider As a side sleeper who enjoys soft beds, I don't like that the Plush Silk & Snow Hybrid costs $300 more than the Medium-Firm version. I don't think I should have to pay more to be comfortable. Back and stomach sleepers should probably stick with the Medium-Firm as the Plush was much too soft for those sleep positions. Silk & Snow doesn't offer in-home setup, which is unfortunate because the Plush Hybrid weighs 110 pounds for the queen. You may want to enlist the help of friends and family to unbox your new bed. What are your alternatives? I chose to test the Plush Hybrid because it's the most affordable Silk & Snow mattress for side sleepers. However, the company has an all-foam mattress for under $600 for a queen. While we haven't tested it yet, Silk & Snow offers the bed in Firm (geared toward back and stomach sleepers) and Medium-Firm (ideal for back and some side sleepers) for $75 more. Silk & Snow's priciest option is its Organic Mattress, which swaps memory foam for all-natural, GOLS-certified latex. The queen runs $850 for Firm, $1,050 for Medium-Firm, and $1,650 for Plush. The increased prices account for thicker slabs of latex. I haven't tested this bed yet, but I love latex because it's incredibly responsive, quickly adjusting to your body's contours. At a similar price point, I also recommend the DreamCloud Premier. It has a medium firmness that will accommodate most sleepers. It dissipates heat well and is a great option for couples. Plus, it's backed by a lifetime warranty, and in-home setup (aka, white-glove delivery) is available for $199. Yet, the Premier lacks Silk & Snow's zoned support. Still, I slept incredibly well on it. Read my full DreamCloud Premier Mattress review. best mattresses. The bottom line I recommend the Silk & Snow Hybrid Plush mattress to side sleepers who want pressure relief and good heat dissipation. Thanks to its superior edge support and motion isolation, it's also a terrific solution for couples. For its $1,000 price, you get a long trial period and warranty. The Plush version is best for side sleepers who prefer a softer feel, but the $850 Medium-Firm will better serve stomach and back sleepers.
