Why Bent?

Since 2018, Bent has brought calm and comfort to people of all ages – regardless of their challenges. Many experience restlessness or loneliness in everyday life, and this is where Mega Bent makes a real difference. He serves as a comforting companion and provides the feeling of a hug – without requiring physical contact. In this way, he helps reduce both touch deprivation and insecurity.
The weight of Bent stimulates the body and nervous system in a calming way, providing a sense of comfort and presence for the user.
Bent has been developed with a focus on both durability and ease of use. He can be machine-washed repeatedly without losing his shape or function and is built to last – even with daily use. Therefore, Bent is particularly well suited for both private homes and professional settings such as schools, institutions, and care centres.

Bette (Small) Bent is designed for individuals aged 3 and above.

It should be emphasized, however, that Bent is not a toy but an assistive aid that provides support in everyday life.

Weight:

Bette (Small) Bent offers flexible ways of use and has a positive effect on the proprioceptive sense – the sense that registers pressure and warmth, which can help improve focus and concentration. The weight in Bent’s arms helps lower the shoulders and gives the feeling of a real hug, whether you are sitting or lying down with Bent. The deep pressure on the body releases oxytocin – this can help create a less stressful everyday life and promote better sleep.
Using Bent can help relieve both mental and physical restlessness throughout the day. Always read the user manual to learn how to use Bent – many useful tips are included there.

User-friendliness:

Bent is easy to clean, as he can be emptied of his contents and washed in a pillowcase on a gentle machine wash at 40 degrees. We place great importance on testing our products. See more under the “Test” section – so you can feel confident using him as an assistive aid.
Always pay attention to the user manual that comes with Bent before using him.

Testimonial:

At our special institution, we were fortunate to have Bette Bent on loan for a month. Bent was intended for a boy who needs help finding calm in his body when coming home from kindergarten. Everything from weighted blankets, vests, and cushions had been tried without effect. This is a child who generally finds it difficult to attach to teddy bears or other toys. After just two weeks of trying Bette Bent, the boy accepted him and now uses Bette Bent to relax when he comes home from kindergarten.
The shape and weight of Bette Bent naturally make you want to hold and hug him. The weight provides a physical sense of calm when holding him, making him ideal for relaxation or break situations. In my opinion, children who seek a lot of comfort and closeness from an adult at night would also benefit from sleeping with Bette Bent.
Bette Bent er ligeledes god til at have hængende på ryggen med armene over skulderen, som et alternativ til en vest.”
