Jan had insomnia for 58 years. Then Percy arrived.
★★★★★
"I've had chronic insomnia, it has been a problem since the age of nine, and I am 67. For more than a decade the only sleep that I get is with the help of prescription sleep aids. Even then, it's difficult. Percy has made it so the sleep aids work better almost all of the time. I can't explain it. I'm so glad I took a chance, and ordered him."

"The evening I first had Percy he came to my rescue!! He was a complete lifesaver! Holding him with his weight up against my body calmed me and relaxed me enough I dozed off to sleep. I’ve held Percy every night and have never slept better and felt more refreshed!!"

FAQ's:
Will Percy really help me?
Based on 60+ years of sensory research and hundreds of rave reviews from formerly maxed-out adults, we're very confident the answer is yes. (And if he doesn't, you have 60 nights to send him back.)
Am I too old for Percy?
Percy was actually built specifically for adults.
Kids don't have bills, performance reviews, or 2 AM replays of conversations from 2 years ago. You do.
There’s zero age limit on wanting to feel calm and get proper sleep.
Is Percy machine washable?
Yes! He even includes a wash bag.
Is Percy scented?
No, he’s completely fragrance-free. Your nervous system has enough going on without forcing a candle aisle onto it.
Is Percy's weight balanced or in one spot?
Balanced. His weight is distributed across his paws and body so he drapes comfortably over you like a warm hug, rather than feeling like a heavy sack resting on your chest.
What if I don't like Percy?
If you don't love him, send him back in 60 days for a refund. You can read our full return policy here.
Do you have free shipping?
Yes! Orders $89+ get free shipping. Shipping is only $9.95 for orders under $89.

20 years of anxiety and poor sleep taught me this...
My chronically dysregulated nervous system needed sensory input to finally feel calm and sleep.
I created Percy to combine everything that helped me, into one 5 lb. bear. Try him for 60 days. If you don't love him, return him for a refund.

- When held, he hugs you in the perfect spots. Feels like holding a sleeping baby.
- Best sleep in years. I've slept through the night in deep sleep every night since Percy came.
- Weighted perfectly throughout his body and his hugs are calming. Amazing purchase!
Percy is so cute. He is my first weighted stuffed animal. He sits by me on my work from home day (once per week) encouragingly but also anticipating 5 p.m. and he quickly made friends with my other stuffies.
I love mine, he's almost perfect. He is the perfect size & weight, & I love that his arms & legs are perfectly weighted & curved so when you hold him it feels like he's wrapping his arms around your arms & holding you back. His fur is so soft too. The only thing I wish I could change about him is, I wish he didn't have the 3 course black Homer Simpson style hairs on top of his head. If they offered a version without those, then he would be perfect. Those 3 course hairs make it uncomfortable to rest your head or chin on top of his head when cuddling & I had one go up my nose while I was sleeping which woke me up & I really didn't like that. Otherwise he perfect. I would buy another if they offered a version without those hairs & would recommend to everyone I know.
Thank you for your lovely review! We're glad you love Percy and appreciate the thoughtful feedback. We want Percy to be perfect for you, so if you'd like to give Percy a hair cut and snip off those 3 hairs, it won't hurt our feelings, promise. :)
I love my Percy! He has helped me sleep so much better. Love him so much I had one shipped to my daughter and will be purchasing one for a friend. In addition to a fantastic product, Amy, the founder, believes in customer service. That is the kind of company I want to support and tell others about.
Hi Pam, we're so happy to hear Percy is bringing you comfort and better sleep! Thank you for supporting us and sharing your kind words about our customer service. We appreciate you!
Percy is soft, comforting, and beautifully made. The 5 lb. weight is perfect for relaxing without feeling overwhelming. It’s become my favorite companion for unwinding at the end of the day. I highly recommend it!
I usually don’t do reviews but I collect weighted stuffed animals and have tried and liked a lot of popular brands of them. Percy is by far my favorite for his cute expression, perfect weight distribution for laying down and sitting (and he is a little heavier than most), love his silky fur, and I love how he’s not too stiff, he feels like a squishy old teddy bear but weighted. You can heat or cool him without actually putting the whole bear in the freezer or microwave. I notice a real different in my relaxation while sitting or laying with this bear, more so than others of its kind. Also, this company has such good communication and I loved the letter and the packaging Percy came in. Overall I can tell so much care went into making this product and this company and I highly recommend Percy!
Hi Samantha, thank you so much for your wonderful review! We're thrilled to hear that Percy has become your favorite weighted plush and that it brings you so much relaxation. Your kind words about our care and communication truly mean a lot. We appreciate your support and recommendation!
Everyone who holds our new furry cub baby LOVES him! We renamed him Oakley, and my grandson is so happy! Even my 22 year-old will hold him while watching TV. 🥰
What great photos! Thank you for sharing. We are so glad Oakley is making himself right at home and providing comfort to all who cuddle him!!
When I travel, I need something from home to sleep with. Since I can't always take my doggo, Percy has been my ride or die buddy. When I get stressed, he's right there to calm me down.
So glad Percy is on the road with you helping you when you're stressed! :)
Percy and I are battling anxiety together. With his sweet assistance, I will win.
You will absolutely win the battle! We are honored Percy is there helping you through this. You've got all our support as well! :)
Anxiety, stress, fear of the unknown….all goes away when letting Percy give you a nice hug. I found I sleep so well with Percy in my arms. I’m 68 and going through many many tests for cancer. I needed this.
Thank you so much for sharing your experiences with Percy. We are so glad Percy brings you comfort and allows you to sleep so well, especially going through something so daunting like tests for cancer. We are sending lots of support your way too! :)
I have wanted to order Percy for a while now. Well, I finally did and I am not disappointed. He is so cute, soft, and cuddly. I highly recommend him for multiple reasons. He is well put together and his face features are all embroidered.
I just love him! Well worth the wait and price.
We're so happy you love Percy and appreciate you so much for sharing this lovely feedback!
Love it love it love it!
I have had a very tough time with my sleep patterns for a while now. My doctor even prescribed some sleep medications that didn’t work, and left me dizzy and groggy. I tried magnesium glycinate and that didn’t work either. I was waking up at 3 am nightly, and then waking up again in two hours, then again in two hours. I was so frustrated and I wasn’t sure what to do. I saw an ad for Percy on Instagram and I was very intrigued. I read reviews and they were positive. I thought, “well I might as well try.” I tell you what the first night I snuggled with Percy I slept the entire night without waking up several times. I was absolutely amazed and relieved. Hey I’m 50 years old and if I sleep with a bear to get better sleep, I have no shame!!! Percy is adorable and I’m so thankful I saw the ad!
Hi there Alison! Thanks for sharing your experience. We're so happy to hear Percy helped improve your sleep! Wishing you many restful nights ahead!
I absolutely love my Percy bear!!! He is awesome. He definitely improves my getting to sleep and staying asleep.
Hi Jeanetta, we're so happy to hear Percy is helping you get better sleep! It always makes our day!
After losing both of my parents, I was anxious, couldn't sleep, found myself grinding my teeth, kept putting on the pounds due to cortisol plus all of the things that go with menopause. I was a mess. Percy was a lifesaver for me. He helped me reset and I have now been able to sleep, the tension has left my shoulders and I no longer grind my teeth. Thank you for creating Percy and for removing the stigma that stuffed animals are just for kids. Reading the science behind Percy makes so much sense!
Thank you so much for sharing your heartfelt story. It means so much. We're truly glad Percy could bring you comfort and support during such a tough time. Wishing you continued healing and peace.
Percy was quite a surprise when he arrived as I had ordered him as a gift for my daughter in law .. I kept him for myself and ordered another for her , seeing how adorable he was , little did I know how much I Truly needed him. I myself have bouts with abdominal migraines and the evening I first had Percy he came to my rescue!! He was a complete lifesaver! Holding him with his weight up against my body calmed me and relaxed me enough and I dozed off to sleep.
Since then I’ve held Percy every night and have never slept better and felt more refreshed!!
Thank you for creating a wonderful aid that helps create a positive impact in my daily life ❤️🩹
I highly encourage anyone regardless of age , I’m 63 btw who has any anxiety- sleep issues - depression- loneliness or whatever to get a Percy for yourself !!
He is quite handsome and a complete gentleman!!
Hi Sue, thank you so much for sharing your heartfelt story! We're delighted Percy has made such a positive difference in your life. Wishing you continued comfort and restful nights. ❤️
Love ❤️
He is adorable . I like the fact that the people heart can come out & you can heat it up or leave it out . It’s nice to feel the weight in each of his paws and not too heavy but just right . He definitely makes me sleep better or even just feel peaceful .
I love my Percy, except I change his name to my huggy bear every time I feel anxious. I just hug Him and just lay them on my chest and I feel so much better. I actually brought them away with me this past weekend and he just traveled with me
