Say Hello to Brooklinen’s New Featherweight Bed Blanket — That "Sweet Spot" Layer You've Been Looking For Forever
Not too warm, not too cool — it has the plush look and feel of their down comforter, with a lightweight blanket form


A quilt and a comforter walked into a bar — and the rest is history. If you’re someone who’s perpetually shivering under a single quilt but inevitably kicks off the comforter in the middle of the night, Brooklinen has solved the bedtime conundrum with their new Featherweight Bed Blanket — a.k.a. the sweet spot Goldilocks of bed linens.
Think of it as a Brooklinen comforter, but lighter and easier to layer, with the versatility of a quilt. It’s the perfect year-round top layer, meaning you can keep it in your bedding repertoire no matter the season. Plus, its sewn-through construction ensures the fill stays evenly distributed and fluffy for good, so no more bunching or shifting.
Just like Brooklinen’s beloved comforters, the Featherweight Bed Blanket comes in both down and down alternative varieties, so there’s something for everyone. And here’s the best part: right now, during Brooklinen’s Comforter Sale (running January 10th through the 20th), you can snag this perfectly balanced blanket at 20% off. A cozy, all-season essential at a discount? This bedding deal is what sweet dreams are made of.
Price: $229 - $269
Available Sizes: Full/Queen & King/Cali King
No duck here. Brooklinen’s Down Alternative Bed Blanket is stuffed with an innovative, hypoallergenic fill made from recycled polyester. Priced slightly lower than its down counterpart, it’s an ideal option for vegans or anyone seeking a more budget-friendly (yet very luxurious) bedding upgrade.
Crafted from a 300-thread count and wrapped in a soft, long-lasting sateen shell, these blankets are minimalism, perfected. Available in Pebble (a cool beige) and White, they feature self-flange details that ensure even fill distribution and an always crisp, clean appearance. You might be thinking: with looks this good, it would be a shame to confine these balanced beauties to the bedroom.
Thankfully, you don’t have to. At just the right weight to move around your home, they’re ideal for cozying up on the couch during movie nights or adding an extra layer of warmth to your favorite chair.
It turns out, a "perfect compromise" isn’t an oxymoron after all.
