    Warmies Products

    We're so glad you asked! Warmies are soothing, loveable plushies and wellness products that can be heated in the microwave or chilled in the freezer for therapeutic comfort. All Warmies are gently scented with dried French lavender sourced from Provence, France. They are weighted with flaxseed for a sensory experience. Designed to maximize relaxation and promote calm, they're great for naptime, bedtime, or any time you or your little one needs some tranquility.

    Warmies plushies and wellness products were designed to offer soothing comfort for individuals of all ages, including adults and children. Our products are infused with dried French lavender to promote relaxation, and they feature a warmable, weighted filling to help reduce anxiety during playtime and bedtime.

    When you're ready to relax, simply follow the instructions in our care guide to heat your Warmies in the microwave or place them in a grip-seal freezer bag and chill them for up to 3 hours to enjoy a refreshing coolness. You can cuddle up on the couch, take Warmies to bed, or carry them for comfort on the go.

    Whether heated or chilled, Warmies can alleviate aches and pains, help you unwind after a long day, and make bedtime more comfortable for the whole family.

    Warmies plushies and wellness products are infused with dried French lavender sourced from local growers in Provence, France. The lavender within your Warmies releases a calming and soothing aroma that is safe for individuals of all ages.

    Not only do Warmies smell great, but the lavender scent promotes relaxation when you need it most.

    Our carefully sourced French lavender is a significant part of what makes Warmies so calming and comforting. However, we understand that it may not be everyone's preference, and we always appreciate hearing our customers' feedback to better inform our product team.

    At this time, we do not offer any unscented styles, but we are actively developing some exciting new products. Make sure to subscribe to our promotional emails so you can be among the first to hear about our new releases!

    Yes! Warmies are thoughtfully weighted to alleviate anxiety and provide comfort. Our full-size plushies weigh about 2 lbs, while Warmies Juniors weigh about .5 lb.

    Additionally, our wellness products are also lightly weighted, offering a therapeutic and sensory experience to aid in relaxation.

    We’re deeply committed to children’s health and well-being. That is why we use dried lavender, not lavender oil. All Warmies plushies and wellness products are gently scented with real, dried, French lavender sourced from Provence, France, which has been tested and deemed safe for all ages.

    Our super-cozy slippers and boots come in a single size that fits most women's sizes from 6-10. (This roughly converts to men’s and youth sizes 4 - 8.5.)

    Our slippers and boots were designed to soothe aches and pains, keeping your feet toasty warm at bedtime or while chilling on the couch. To maximize comfort and softness, we have not added a sole intended for walking or venturing outside. In other words, slip them on, put your feet up, and relax! Shop Warmies footwear here.

    We designed our Supersized Warmies for really big hugs — so big, in fact, that they’re too large for microwaves! Instead, we made them with an easy-to-remove heat pack that can be microwaved (or chilled) for your comfort. These extra-large Warmies are made to soothe or warm your hands and can double as a huggable pillow.

    All other Warmies styles can be placed directly in the microwave.

    Our products are manufactured overseas in China, and distributed in East Dundee, Illinois, where we proudly provide employment to over 150 skilled workers in the United States. We sincerely appreciate your support of Warmies.

    My First Warmies are made with extra-soft ribbed fabric and feature satin-like details. They weigh approximately 2 lbs and measure 13”x6”x4” in size. Shop My First Warmies here.

    Our Warmies Juniors, on the other hand, are slightly smaller, made with plush fur-like outer fabric. They weigh about 0.5 lbs and have dimensions of 9”x5”x2”. Shop Warmies Juniors here.

    Like all Warmies plushies, both My First Warmies and Warmies Juniors are gently scented with dried French lavender and safe for all ages!

    Wamies make excellent gifts for loved ones of all ages. Currently, we do not offer personalization or customization options for Warmies. However, with so many styles and colors available, we’re confident you can find something your friend or family member will love!

    We release dozens of new products every year. Be sure to subscribe to our promotional emails so you can be among the first to know about all the new Warmies.

    Warmies Safety, Care & Use

    Absolutely! From sourcing our ingredients to the production process, ensuring product safety and quality for you and your family is our highest priority. Warmies undergo rigorous testing in compliance with U.S. safety standards, and we're proud to confirm that Warmies products not only meet but exceed safety and quality regulations. They are safe for children and babies of all ages when used under adult supervision. Just remember to always adhere to the usage guidelines and instructions provided on the hangtag, sewn onto the label, and detailed in our care guide to ensure safety and maintain Warmies in excellent condition.

    If you have any questions related to specific medical conditions, we recommend consulting with your doctor.​

    Warmies are fully compliant with all ASTM and CPSIA requirements.

    As fellow pet lovers, we appreciate this question! After all, our furry friends need cozy comfort too.

    Warmies plushies and wellness products have been tested in accordance with U.S. safety standards and are safe for people of all ages. However, we have not tested their safety for animals.

    We recommend reaching out to your veterinarian before allowing your pet to cozy up with Warmies.

    Our products are designed for everyone, and many customers with diabetes have found comfort with Warmies.

    However, it’s important to note that some people with diabetic peripheral neuropathy cannot tell when something is too hot or too cold for their skin. Excessively heating Warmies and placing them on your skin may cause burns. For this reason, we recommend you always follow the heating and cooling instructions located on the hangtags, packaging, and sewn-in labels (You can also find instructions in our care guide).

    Additionally, if you or your child have diabetes, we recommend consulting your doctor before using Warmies.

    You’ll be happy to know Warmies are frequent flyers! Warmies make excellent travel buddies and do not contain any materials or substances that violate airport security rules. Our products are filled with flaxseed, dried French lavender, and finished with an ultra-soft polyblend outer fabric. They should have no trouble earning TSA’s stamp of approval before takeoff!

    Our products heat quickly and easily, allowing you to enjoy the comfort of Warmies in no time! However, please keep in mind that the heating time required for your Warmies depends on the style and wattage of your microwave. It's important to follow these instructions carefully to avoid accidentally overheating your Warmies.

    Here’s a simple guide on how to heat your Warmies without compromising their quality:

    1. Remove all tags.
    2. Ensure your Warmies are clean and dry.
    3. Verify that your microwave is clean, and your turntable can rotate freely.
    4. Place your Warmies in the microwave and follow the recommended heat times provided below:

    Heat times for regular Warmies, My First Warmies, Boots, Slippers, Neck Wraps, Animal Wraps, Heat Pads, and Heat-Paks:

    • 90 seconds for 600w to 800w microwaves
    • 60 seconds for 850w to 1000w microwaves

    Heat times for Warmies Juniors, Hugs, and Eye Masks:

    • 30 seconds for 600w to 800w
    • 20 seconds for 850w to 1000w

    For Supersized Warmies, remove the heat pack from the backside and place it in the microwave:

    • 90 seconds for 600w to 800w microwaves
    • 60 seconds for 850w to 1000w microwaves

    For more tips and detailed instructions, please refer to the Warmies Care Guide.

    Yes! Chilled Warmies are excellent for soothing aches and pains or cooling off on a hot day. Please follow these instructions to chill your Warmies:

    1. Place your Warmies in a clean grip-seal freezer bag.
    2. Leave your Warmies into the freezer for 2-3 hours.
    3. Remove from the freezer and enjoy cooling comfort.

    For more tips and detailed instructions, please refer to the Warmies Care Guide.

    It's important to reheat your Warmies at room temperature because they're designed to retain warmth. Reheating before it returns to room temperature may cause overheating and damage. Fortunately, if you follow the care instructions, your Warmies will stay in tip-top shape for years to come!

    We want you to enjoy comforting cuddles with your Warmies for years to come! To ensure your Warmies remain in tip-top shape, it’s important to only heat Warmies in the microwave and follow all care and heating instructions.

    We do not recommend heating Warmies in any other appliances, as doing so may risk overheating your Warmies (resulting in permanent damage).

    All Warmies contain just the right amount of flaxseed and real dried French lavender for heating in a microwave. Attempting to heat or dry your Warmies in a dryer could result in overheating which could permanently damage the product.

    To continue enjoying hugs and cuddles with your Warmies for years to come, be sure to follow our recommended care and heating instructions.

    To prevent overheating, we recommend heating your Warmies in smaller increments of 10 to 20 seconds. Please exercise caution when removing your Warmies from the microwave and ensure that it is not too hot before using.

    After you’re done using your Warmies plushies or wellness products, simply store them in a cool, dry location for the next time you need a little calming comfort.

    We get it — messes happen! Please follow these instructions for cleaning your Warmies:

    1. Use a damp sponge, towel, or antibacterial wipe, to lightly spot-clean your Warmies.
    2. Use a soft brush to refresh the soft touch of your Warmies.
    3. Store in a cool, dry place after each cleaning and use.

    Because Warmies contain flaxseed and dried French lavender, putting them in a washing machine or submerging them in water will cause the filling to swell and potentially ruin the product. Fortunately, spot cleaning should work just fine!

    Warmies are designed to stay toasty for over an hour so you can enjoy a nice dose of soothing warmth! In fact, they’re so great at retaining heat that they may take up to 4 hours to return to room temperature. (Always wait for your Warmies to completely cool before reheating so you don’t accidentally overheat them and cause permanent damage.)

    All Warmies plushies are perfect for little ones, but My First Warmies and Warmies Juniors are designed especially for our tiniest customers.

    Warmies are designed to help children (and adults) relax and enjoy calming comfort. Our products are scented with dried French lavender and weighted to help ease anxiety, support relaxation, and promote more restful sleep.

    Warmies plushies and wellness products are loved by individuals of all ages! Just as children and younger adults enjoy them, senior citizens have also found comfort and relief in our products.
