A grounding blanket is for the couch and for reading in bed; grounding sheets and a grounding pad are for the hours you sleep. If you want one product for the whole night, choose the pad or the sheet. If you want to add daytime hours on the sofa, add the blanket. Five questions settle it.
Question 1: Where will you use it?
Blankets ground you while you are wrapped in them — on the sofa, in a chair, over your legs in bed. Sheets and pads ground you for the six to eight hours you are asleep. Count the hours: most people get far more grounded time from the bed than from the couch.
Question 2: How much coverage do you need?
A throw covers your lap and torso. A fitted sheet or a mattress pad covers everything that touches the bed. If you share the bed, a mattress-sized pad in King or California King grounds both sleepers.
Question 3: Do you want skin contact?
Blankets and silver sheets need skin or thin cotton against the conductive layer. The Earthbound® Grounding Mattress Pad grounds through your fitted sheet or pajamas, so you sleep on your own bedding.
Question 4: How will you wash it?
Blankets and silver sheets are laundered with care rules: no bleach, no softener, often air-dry. A carbon pad is a wipe-down. If laundry discipline is not your strength, that answers the question.
Question 5: How long should it last?
Silver-thread textiles have stated lifespans of two to three years on several brands' pages. Carbon fiber is inert and will not oxidize; Earthbound backs its pad with a lifetime warranty.

Do I need bare skin contact? No. Near Field Earthing works through a layer of fabric like your fitted sheet or pajamas, so you can sleep normally and still stay grounded.
How do I set it up? Lay the pad under your fitted sheet, plug the grounding cord into a grounded wall outlet, and sleep. No apps, no charging, nothing to remember. A region-specific outlet adapter is included. FREE Outlet Tester included with every order.
Will it last? Yes. It is built from conductive carbon fiber, which will not oxidize or lose conductivity over time, unlike silver-thread products. It is a buy-it-once product, backed by a lifetime warranty.
Is it safe? The grounding cord includes a built-in 100k ohm resistor for safety. No electricity flows into the pad. Only the Earth's free electrons.

Shipping: Orders ship within 24–48 hours. Shipping is free on orders over $50, which includes every mattress pad. We ship only from tryearthbound.com — never through Amazon or other marketplaces.
Frequently asked questions
What are the benefits of using a grounding blanket?
It extends grounded hours into the day — on the couch, in a chair, during a nap — and research suggests grounding may support relaxation, sleep and markers of inflammation. Individual results vary. It does not replace overnight grounding from a sheet or pad.
Is walking barefoot in your house considered grounding?
Usually not. Wood, vinyl, carpet and raised floors insulate you from the earth. Barefoot on grass, sand or bare soil is grounding; indoors you need a conductive product connected to a grounded outlet or a rod.
What are the negatives of a grounding mat?
Desk-style mats cover a strip and need skin contact; some people report mild tingling in the first nights. A mattress-sized carbon pad that works through your sheet removes the first two issues.
How many hours a day should you use a grounding mat?
No brand in this comparison states a maximum. Overnight use on a bed pad gives six to eight hours; a blanket or desk mat adds daytime hours on top.
Can I use a grounding blanket and a grounding pad together?
Yes. Each connects to its own cord and ground port. The pad covers the night; the blanket covers the evening on the sofa.
