Z-Magic Cooling Comforter Review
Advantages
Instantly cooling
It's temperature regulating to keep your body at the optimum temperature throughout the night.
Super soft touch
The blanket is so gentle on the skin.
Antibacterial and hypoallergenic materials
You'll stay fresh and clean with this comforter.
Disadvantages
Quite expensive
It is a little pricey compared to other cooling blankets.
Not for all-year use
If you're not a hot sleeper, it can be too cooling in the colder months.
Who is this product for?
The comforter is for those who have hot flashes, experience menopause or find it hard to cool down (especially in the summer).
To summarise, it's for:
- Hot sleepers
- Anyone going through menopause
- Those looking for comfort
What do we use this product for?
The cooling properties of the blanket mean it's great for absorbing your body heat while you sleep, or while you're relaxing in the evening. It's good at providing comfort and allowing you to have a comfortable sleep. The comforter has a silky soft texture which is perfect for easing sensitive skin.
So, it can be used for:
- Comfort
- Keeping cool
- Reduce night sweats
- Protecting sensitive skin in the Summer
Bamboo fibre
Using bamboo has its own natural properties that make it an even better product. It is naturally hypoallergenic, antibacterial and anti-odour. So, even if you're prone to sweating, this one won't cling to that smell. It wicks away the moisture so you can stay feeling fresh throughout the night.
The comforter has a cooling effect which is what helps hot sleepers. Regular bamboo viscose is thermoregulating and breathable. However, they have said their specially designed Z-bamboo viscose makes it 2x cooler. We would have to agree that there is a slight noticeable difference to other bamboo products we have tested.
Temperature-regulating technology
We've already touched on regulating body temperature and breathability. But, there's special technology used that enhances the cooling ability of the comforter. Their specific technology promotes “10x faster heat absorption than cotton”.
We can confirm that snuggling into this blanket kept us cool for a long time without becoming so cold that we needed to find another blanket. You'll remain at a good temperature. However, using it when you're already cold and the instant cooling effect will take some adjusting to your temperature. So, only ever cosy up when you're feeling very warm.
Review of the Z-Magic Cooling Comforter
The Cooling Comforter is a lightweight blanket that’s great for those who get hot all year round. But even more so for snuggling up on those warmer summer evenings. Sometimes when it’s too hot, the last thing you want is a blanket on you or any extra layers. However, with this one the lightweight design is perfect to bring out when it’s warmer. You can still feel cosy without feeling like you’re suffocating from a big blanket
When testing, I found that the comforter was instantly cooling. It is cool to the touch so you’ll soon cool down after it touches your skin.
The comforter is made from bamboo fibre on one side and Japanese cool-tech fabric on the other. Both sides give that instantly cooling feeling.

What we like about the Z-Magic Cooling Comforter
There's definitely lots to like about the comforter, especially if you're someone who spends the majority of the time being hot and unable to cool down. However, it can be enjoyed by many different people. Here are just a few of the reasons we liked it:
- One of the things we like about the comforter is the many colour options available. There's a colour for every room aesthetic. No matter if you want it for the living room or the bedroom, you will find one that suits your style. We received the dark grey one which is stylish and chic and will work with any colour scheme.
- Another thing to note is how memorable the softness is. It's super gentle on the skin with no irritation whatsoever. It truly is comforting to cosy up with and you'll feel relaxed in no time. The bamboo gives it a silky soft finish that you won't want to stop snuggling up. So, if you want to use it throughout the night, you will remain comfortable all night long.
- It has moisture-wicking properties that pull any sweat away from your skin for cooler nights. This reduces waking up from night sweats and leaves you dry. It makes it a breathable blanket.
What we didn’t like about the Z-Magic Cooling Comforter
It's rare for a product to suit everyone's taste and some people are likely to find something they dislike about it. While we have no major complaints, there are a couple things that might sway your decision on whether to buy it or not. Here they are:
- The first big thing that can be seen as a negative is the price tag. You can find other cooling blankets that are half the price of this one. However, you need to weigh up the cooling ability of this product to see if it's worth it for you. For a lot of people looking for this type of product, it will be worth spending the extra.
- This blanket isn't really suitable for use all year round unless you're constantly hot. Hot sleepers who also struggle in the cooler months will definitely get their money's worth. But, those who just want it for the warmer weather will find it'll spend a lot of time in the cupboard.

Check the alternatives to the Z-Magic Cooling Comforter
If you want a blanket that is more focused on being a weighted blanket than being cooling, we would suggest looking for an alternative. You can find weighted blankets that also regulate your body temperature so you can get both from one product. Another option we would recommend exploring is the Emma Hug Weighted Blanket.
Emma Hug Weighted Blanket
The Emma Weighted Blanket is within a similar price range to the Z-Magic Cooling Comforter so you can expect the same level of quality. This blanket has been designed to be thermo-regulating so it works with your body temperature to keep your body heat under control. Whilst keeping the body heat to a minimum, it has a weighted feel that helps you to relax and calm anxiety. The filling has been distributed evenly to apply gentle pressure across your body.
You will be able to experience a comfortable, cooling and calming sleep when using this product.

What makes this product better than some other similar ones?
One thing to note that makes this product better than others is that it's cooling on both sides of the blankets. You will find that most only have one cooling side which is still practical. However, if both sides are cooling then it doesn't matter how much you fidget during the night, you will always have a cool surface on you.
Some products will only keep you cool for a few hours which can help to send you off to sleep. With the Cooling Comforter, it'll cool you down all night so you won't feel uncomfortable or disturbed while you're sleeping.
Is the Z-Magic Cooling Comforter eco-friendly or sustainable?
The Cooling Comforter is environmentally friendly due to the materials it uses to produce it. The bamboo fibres have been naturally sourced for the comforter. As far as we know, the cool tech on the opposite side is also eco-friendly but we can't be certain. Their website claims that the whole product is kind on the environment.
Aside from the materials, there isn't much on sustainability on their website.
How did we test the product?
Now we'd like to discuss exactly how we test our products. On a basic level, all the products we review go through these three tests:
- Visual inspection
- Hands-on inspection
- Measured tests
And when it comes to the Z-Magic Cooling Comforter, in particular, these are the exact tests conducted to gauge its quality:
- Wrap ourselves in the duvet to see how warm or cool it is and feel the weight of it
- Look at the smaller details e.g stitching, design and packaging
- See how it feels on the skin
- Directly compared to other blankets
Overall impressions of the product after the testing
The smaller details are part of the experience that can make the product even better. Before trying out the comforter, I had a look at the packaging. It comes in a cute box and inside is a reusable bag for storing it away in the cooler months. While it’s out during the summer, you can use the reusable bag to store other little bits in – any extra blankets, spare pillowcases or anything else you can think of.
Included inside the box is a welcome card with their mission on it. There’s also an information leaflet that has washing instructions, their purpose and their story.
On the comforter itself, you’ll find the Zonli brand label with the quote ‘Make sleep better’. This is with another label with washing instructions – they recommend washing before use. It also includes a couple of washing tips on the label too.
Details aside, it has many factors that make the blanket worth purchasing. In summary, it repels pet hair, is skin-friendly, environmentally friendly and machine washable. As well as the natural properties of bamboo being antibacterial, hypoallergenic and moisture-wicking. The Z-Magic Cooling Comforter has the perfect balance of being a light blanket to keep you comfy without being overbearing.
All-in-all, it's worth getting if you're a hot sleeper or are going through the menopause. But it isn't the kind of weighted blanket for those who tend to stay cold.
