Great product!
Great product! I recently purchased and use these to make a weighted blanket for my son. The product is very easy to use, and I love that the bag comes with a reclosable top. Once you determine how heavy you need the blanket to be, simply way your fabric that you will be using and then gauge how much of the beads you will need. I weighed out the amount on a scale, because I determined that I would need to ounces in each of the pockets once you determine how heavy you need the blanket to be, simply way your fabric that you will be using and then gauge how much of the beads you will need. I weighed out the amount on a scale, because I determined that I would need two ounces in each of the pockets inside of the blanket. I included Picture of my finished project. I used a store bought sheet on the inside sewn into multiple pockets and filled the liner with the beads. The outside is a fleece cover that I made with Velcro so that it is easily washable.

BE AWARE the weight conversion is not accurate
PLEASE BE AWARE: the volume:weight conversion listed on the package is NOT accurate.When we weighed it out, we found that 1 cup = 6 ounces.Had to abandon our project until we could reassemble all the supplies.

Used with Cat Genie
Used these as a replacement for the cat litter in out Cat Genie based on the recommendation of another user. They were absolutely correct; it works perfect, and we've had less litter waste in the toilet! Stupid cheap and super effective. Highly recommend. Hasn't hurt our Cat Genie or toilet in the year we've been using it.

Perfect for Weighted Blankets
I have occasional sleepless nights. After reading that studies have shown a weighted blanket can help with bouts of insomnia, I purchased two of these to make my own weighted blanket. I am very happy with the way it turned out. The pellets came without any weird scents, and I am very happy with their quality. There were no broken beads or large amounts dust in the package. These are all things I've heard complaints about with other beads. The blanket turned out excellent and is very helpful on nights that I used to spend tossing and turning. I highly recommend making your own weighted blanket if you ever have trouble sleeping.

Like the other reviews
I just started making weighted blankets for family members. I saw these on Amazon and decided to give them a try. The weight is off with these, they are lighter than what is stated on the bag. Also the packaging is cheap. In December I met the UPS man at the truck and took these 2 boxes from him, I ordered 5 bags in total. The bottom box was smashed which I can't blame the seller on. But while walking to my house though the snow and ice, I shifted the box a little bit, and 100s, maybe 1000s of these beads starting flowing out of the broken box. One of the bags broke open while I was carrying it and covered my drive way. Like the other reviews, bags are cheaply made/sealed/whatever. Granted only 1 of the 5 broke, but still, that was lost money on my end.

Arrived in great condition
I spent a lot of time looking at reviews for poly pellets, and was fearful that I would be one of those who received a broken bag of pellets all scattered in the shipping box. However, my order arrived in perfect condition. I made a weighted blanket for my father who has Parkinson's. I used the entire 10 pound bag, and it turned out perfect.

They actually work better than the original ones
I know it's not what these are meant for but I needed a different washable kitty litter for my CatGenie and have tried many types. I'd found some on ebay that were made of the same material and worked well but were sharp edged and hurt, if they got on the floor and got stepped on. In searching for a washable pellet, I found these and thought I'd give it a shot. These are a lifesaver (and foot saver)! They actually work better than the original ones. They clean better and don't stick to my kitties paws so they stay in the bowl. I will definitely keep using these!

Arrived in disarray!!!!
I’ve ordered this item countless times previously, and they have always arrived intact. This item arrived open, all inside the box, so when I open the box, pellets went everywhere!! I was very unhappy as it was impossible to retrieve all of them as they win in the carpet and all over the floor. I ordered 10 pounds and I ended up with half that left. I’m very disappointed in how they arrived. I hope you can compensate me in some way shape or form! Thank you.
