It was recommended for my son to use a weighted vest to help with his tip toe walking and other sensory issues he has. He LOVES it! The only complaint I have is that it’s only 2lbs. His therapist recommended 3lbs so I’m going to have to make another pound somehow to put in his vest.
This weighted vest has helped my child stay calm and focused during activities. It’s adjustable and comfortable, with good weight distribution. The fabric is durable and breathable. We are very happy with it.
I put it on him for half an hour and it works really well. It's the only thing that calms my son's energy.
My daughter loves this! it helps her calm down when she’s feeling overwhelmed.
I purchased this for my 6yrs old grandson and had it mail to my daughter place. My daughter said he loves it, it keep him calm, and when he's doing to much, she puts it on to keep him from being all over apartment making all kinds of noise, etc. Other than that my daughter is satisfied.
I got this for a student in my pre-k class (5.75 years old), who I suspected was experiencing some extra sensory needs. As soon as I put it on the student, they said, "This feels amazing!" The student chose to wear it for most of the school day. It is easy to adjust the weights. The student needs an adult to put it on them, but they can easily take it off independently.
I bought this weight vest for my daughter and I have noticed a positive difference in her calm and concentration.
Daughter loves this vest so much! Fit so well
My daughter uses this for self regulation. She says it fits comfortably and helps!
Bought for my grandson that is on the spectrum. It fits perfectly and weight is great. He likes the full weight best and asks to put it on when he is anxious. He is only 5 and needs a little help to put it on but can take it off by himself. Price was maybe a little high but it seems to be great quality so perhaps worth it.
Fits great!
Purchased for my 6 year old. He has been wearing almost daily with the smallest weight limit. Is adjustable and easy to take on and off. We've washed it once and it's held up. Would recommend.
This is my son’s first week in the vest and it has been a complete turn around!!!! He is a high functioning autistic child but he does have frequent outbursts and it has been getting worse as he’s gotten older. It has only taken 10-15 minutes in the morning and evening and so many of his negative responses to things have completely changed. All week he has complied in class and has gotten great reports from his ABA therapist. This was a very positive experience and a wonderful purchase.
Fits well, adjusts well, looks great.
Bought for my grandson, he wore it to school and teacher said he had a great day.
So far my six year old has not destroyed this. It really helps him be able to focus better in class.
Seems well made and fits well. Not sure that is helps my son though.
My son has SPD, this vest has helped with keeping him a bit calmer throughout the day. Especially when it comes to sitting at the table for meals.
Works great to add a little weight for sensory needs
My son has sensory problems and it's helped him a lot to cope at school, we've washed it a few times and the Velcro is still holding on pretty good
Good for my son with autism
Just got the best and a few things I’ve noticed already. 1. This isn’t compression. Not in the same way a regular compression vest is. There isn’t a lot of adjustability to make it tighter for the compression. 2. I’m not a fan of how the weights are only in the bottom of the vest. I feel like it would have a lot more impact higher up. However that’s just for my kid, everyone is different. The good things. Durable. Strong. Love the material. The weight seems like it’s not a lot when reading the specs but it feels heavier than you’d think. It’s very breathable which is great for my son who is very heat sensitive. All in all good for the price just be careful if you are looking for more compression. A
Best purchase I could ever done for my son with autism. He asks to put it on, brings it to me. It’s made a difference. Doesn’t want it off. I love this item. A weighted vest was recommended by his special ed preschool teacher. Best money spent. No regrets, I recommend one thousand percent. Very comfortable and great quality.
It really does help.
Can’t use it more than 20mins at a time. But helps a little.

My son wore the vest at preschool and it made a big difference in his behavior and provided him with sensory input that gave him comfort.
Did not do anything for my grandson. He mostly played with it. We gave it several tries but just did not work for us.
Easy adjustable fit. All my kids felt like to was comfortable. Only improvement would be making it so the child could easily adjust it and put it on/off independently.
My grandson is almost 7 this fits him perfectly. Definitely makes him feel more relaxed. Very durable and well made. Seems to be a good value for the money.
