Harkla Weighted Vest for Kids - Neoprene Compression Vest - Ages 5 to 9 - Adjustable Kids Weighted Vest with 2lb Weight - Breathable and Washable Compression Vest - Medium

Great quality

This vest is amazing for my son. His occupational therapist recommended a weighted vest and this one is perfect. He wears it everyday to help him chill out after lunch. Once the vest is on he instantly relaxes and it helps him stop grinding his teeth too. I had an issue with the vest and emailed the company and they were great at quickly responding and sending a new one. Overall I’m so happy with this purchase!

Give your little ones a comforting hug with the Harkla Weighted Vest for Kids. Designed for ages 2 to 4, this neoprene compression vest features an adjustable 2lb weight to provide soothing pressure. Breathable and washable, it ensures a cozy fit that adapts to your child’s needs, making it a great choice for enhancing their comfort and focus. Works great when we go to the grocery store!

Works amazing for our over active 4 year old to help maintain calm

Easy to use, love the removable weights. Only downfall is the smell of the material. Washing has not seemed to help. Very strong odor makes it tough for my kiddo to wear.

GOOD QUALITY VEST! FAST DELIVERY!

Nice quality but not seeing the merit in it.

For reference: My son is 26 months old, but petite…he was a 26 weeker micropreemie. He is 23 lbs, 30” tall and wears 12m clothing. We bought the SMALL. Very adjustable and will fit for years to come!!! NO annoying tags or rough edges! NOT hot! Very breathable! My son has developmental delays and issues with sensory processing, emotional regulation, and overstimulation (common for a micropreemie that’s now a toddler). He also has a speech delay; he says 2 words - “dada” and “ba(ll)”. He is cognitively intact, going through a developmental spurt, experiencing change such as moving into a big boy bed, and has a lot to “say” but he can’t actually communicate beyond two words and two signs. Frustration can go from 0 to 100 FAST. Maybe autistic and/or ADHD (he exhibits signs and is very high risk given his extreme prematurity but it is hard to tell this young). His developmental pediatrician at the NICU follow-up clinic first mentioned a vest to me. Then our OT said a compression vest might help with his focus. Then our PT suggested “weight work” or a weighted vest to help slow him down and provide sensory input. So I spent a night reading and researching, eventually deciding on the Harkla weighted compression vest. Wow. I notice an immediate difference. He can actually focus longer and doesn’t get frustrated as easily. He can self-regulate better. We wear it daily during focused developmental play, and often to his doctor appointments. We leave it on ~20-30 minutes at a time and limit use to an hour or less per day total. I have no basis or comparison but people who do have commented favorably. His speech therapist asked me to send her a link to it. His PT wanted to know the brand, and commented on how it was superior to some of her other patients’ vests… easier to put on, secure, easy weight adjustment options, very sturdy weight bags, and how he doesn’t get overheated at all (we live in Arizona, this is huge). His OT knew it the moment she saw it…”Harkla is the best, but not cheap.” His normal pediatrician commented on how he didn’t realize they made therapeutic ones that could fit a child of my son’s size (he may be 26 months but wears 12 month clothing and this is able to be fitted to him very securely). I am very pleased with the usability, helpfulness, and quality. My son tolerates it just fine. It seems costly for neoprene, Velcro, and mesh… but isn’t everything expensive now?

My 4 year old daughter with ADHD enjoys wearing this and she finds it helpful with her need for constant hugs. She likes to wear it for quiet time and it makes a big difference on her relaxation and quality of quiet time, which then makes for an overall better day! In the beginning she was weary, after a few weeks she was on board and now months later she asks for it daily and really likes it! It is really good quality, definitely kid proof! I just have to remember to not put it close to anything fluffy as the velcro is VERY sticky! (which I appreciate!)

Producto genial para niño talla L y le quedo apretado ami niño porque es gordito las bolsitas no pesan mucho y si viene con bolsitaas

I bought this for my very active 2 year old. It calms him down before bedtime.

Product delivered timely but has defect on the Velcro

This vest has been a life saver for my 4 year old autistic child. The quality is amazing. It's so easy to put on. And I can't imagine now living without it. It has helped regulate my little girl. Highly recommend this product.
