This is a perfect weighted blanket for one person as it is about the size of a twin size or half of a king bed. I would recommend following the weight recommendations for your size, I think I ordered this one slightly heavy since I have tried other weight blankets. It is machine washable which is nice. The two different fabric sides seem durable yet soft. The size of the quilting is about 5”x 5” to help contain the weighted beads (sand sized glass) in place without getting too heavy in any given spot.
