We live in a 1900 home. Our only assumption about our house is that our upstairs used to be an attic that some previous owners converted in to 3 small bedrooms. It’s that, or the house is so old that there never was air conditioning up there. With this said, we have no air conditioning upstairs. We sleep with the doors open so the window unit upstairs can get air to the kids’ rooms.
With this said, I had a chance to try out a Select Comfort blanket called ‘In Balance’. Love. I am in love! I can totally see our electric bill decreasing because we are staying cooler upstairs with the In Balance blanket.
Breakthrough temperature balancing technology allows you to sleep more soundly, with less temperature swings. Outlast® Adaptive Comfort®* material is designed to balance the temperature swings that can cause restless nights—to help you sleep more comfortably each and every night.

I love that I can lay ON the In Balance Blanket or cover up with it and still stay cool. What? Stay cool with a blanket? You can also keep warm with the In Balance blanket as well. I hate to say this, but I am excited for fall and winter to get here so I can try out the In Balance Blanket out in the cold temperatures.
I love the look of the In Balance Blanket. I love the feel of the In Balance Blanket. I think the price of the In Balance Blanket is very nice being that my energy bill will decrease because I am staying cool!

About Tanya
I would love to have an In Balance Mattress Pad. Choosing a memory foam mattress was the stupidest mid-life decision I’ve ever made!….too hot!!!
Tweet! http://twitter.com/bcgirll/status/3742446437
My darned memory foam mattress makes for a warm bed and I sure need something to balance it off.
I have your button.
I would love this blanket. Thanks so much.
I have a Select Comfort King Size Bed. It’s wonderful for hubby and me. He likes his side soft and I like my side of the bed firm. The blanket would be wonderful, because in Colorado sometimes in the summer you need a little more than a sheet, but a heavy blanket is just too much. You want to still stay alittle cool in the summer, but it’s hard to get that adjusted just right with the blankets we have.
The blanket would be perfect for me because I can’t sleep without a blanket, even in the summer.
This blanket would be perfect!
I am a HUGE blanket lover! I consider a soft blanket a perfect gift for myself! You can never have too many! Would love to try this one from Select Comfort! I have a down comforter, but still find that I get hot and cold!

So many entries; however, I feel this blanket perhaps could ease the daily stress into the lands of sleep and dreams for a very peaceful rest for the next day. Thanks sw
I do need balance in my life. The name Balance is a promise.

I’d like to have the Select Comfort bed
My bed is my favorite place on earth
Would love to have this blanket. Most of the time, I am cold and the husband is hot and has no covers or they are thrown all over the place.

This would be a great blanket to try out – I’m usually either too warm or too cold. I’d love to see how this one works out!

I need this. It seems that my husband and I cannot agree on whether our house is too warm or too hot.
I would love to try this blanket! It sounds so comfy!!
Oh my gosh, I love everything about this blanket! I’m currently taking allergy shots, so the hypoallergenic part is great. And since I live in Florida, where it’s pretty much always hot, this would be great for us.
Thanks for a great giveaway! Here’s my entry
Heavens.. a blanket that will change to keep my comfortable! I might actually get some sleep instead of kicking blanket off… pulling blanket on.. kicking off
I can’t sleep without a blanket, even when it’s hot. Sometimes i have to keep one leg out for temperature control so this would be awesome! Thanks for the chance!

Another Select Comfort product that I would love to have is the LuxLayer Mattress Pad. I chose this because the description says you will feel like you’re sinking into a cloud with conforming comfort layers. Now how great is that?! I also love that it is a down alternative and my husband is allergic to down so this is an added bonus!
This looks like a great blanket! I could use it because here in Florida it is soooo hot!
This amazing In Balance Blanket can help me (well my husband and I) because we too live in a very old home. It was once a seasonal cottage that at some point several owners before us converted into a year round home and but with that conversion, there are a lot of things that should have been done that were not. So, the home is very hot and humid in the summer, and drafty cold in the winter. Having this wonderful In Balance Blanket and all that it can do because of what it is rendered with, will help keep us cool and comfortable when we sleep on those hot sultry summer nights and in those terribly cold brutal winter months keep us warm and protected. I love it, this blanket is genius! Thanks so much for the chance to enter.
This is my initial entry, I am not sure where the spreadsheet is, so this is where I am providing you with my Name and Email address.
I’m looking forward to giving this to my daughter for her birthday.
I also like the Italian Luxury Sateen Sheet Set in Wilton Blue. Very nice!

I like having a blanket when sleeping but my husband complains it’s too hot. So he throws his side onto me which makes me too hot! The In Balance Blanket would be the perfect solution!
Thanks 4 the giveaway!… =D
This looks like a great blanket
Our old blanket is falling apart. I wake up with allergies a lot so this would really help us!

I can’t sleep without covers no matter what the temperature is – this would be so nice.
this sounds GREAT! would love to win!
This blanket would help to regulate my wild temperature swings I have while sleeping. I grab for blankets, then kick them off after waking up sweaty. Then I get cold again and need them. See a pattern here?
The sleep number bed sounds wonderful!!!
