21 WIRED-Tested Gifts for People Who Need Some Sleep (2024)

Between anxiety and insomnia, I've always had trouble sleeping, and I'm not alone. Chances are you or someone you know is not getting enough sleep, and that can have a serious impact on your health. In the past few years, a few of us on the Gear Team have worked tirelessly to transform our bedrooms into the comfiest, coziest places possible to help coax ourselves into that ever-elusive restful night of sleep.

We've tested dozens of sleep products for various guides and reviews—everything from sheets and weighted blankets to sound machines and sex toys. The best of the best are listed here, and we can attest that each one of these has helped us sleep a little better at night. I hope they help you, or a loved one, too.

Be sure to check out our many other buying guides this season, including the Best Viral TikTok Gadgets, Best White Elephant Gifts, and Great Gifts for PC Gamers.

Updated December 2024: We've added new gift ideas including stuffed animals, a soft blanket, a smart alarm clock, and CBN gummies. We've also checked pricing throughout.
