Looking for a cheaper alternative to the Liberator Throe? I found it. If you need to protect your bed from messy sexy activities, Mambe’s waterproof blankets will do it and cost you less than a Liberator Throe. Don’t get me wrong, I love my Throe but I’ve heard time and time again that they’re just too expensive for a lot of people1. So, I started searching for something that could do the job for less. Granted, I didn’t have to search very long. I Googled “sex blanket” and Mambe’s site was first in the results. Nowhere on their site do they mention using their blankets as sex blankets but they must know that’s what some people will use them for.
They have several different types of blankets, all of which are waterproof. Some have fleece on one side and nylon on the other. I was looking for one of their most affordable options and found their “furniture covers”. These have fleece on both sides with a waterproof layer in the middle. I ordered the 60X60 for $59 and shipping was $10. You can get them large enough to cover the bed if you want to spend more. For the size they’re still a better value than the Throe.
That’s the 60X60 furniture cover on a king size bed.
My blanket arrived fairly quickly considering it came from the Pacific Northwest and I’m in the Midwest. I was immediately impressed with how lightweight it is compared to the Throe. It feels very well made and the fleece is nice and soft.
I put it on the bed and poured some water on it and the water beaded up, not really soaking in. On one hand, I thought this was good because it shows that it’s not going to soak through to the other side but it could also be messy if you moved the blanket and the liquid rolled off onto the bed. I machine washed and dried the blanket and it came out perfect. I tested it again and this time, it absorbed the water but did not soak through to the other side. My bed stayed perfectly dry.
So obviously, I can’t speak to the durability of this blanket since I just got it but Mambe’s site does say that they’re “guaranteed for life”. I think I might actually like this blanket better than the Throe. My cat seems to like it too but the fleece is a fur magnet.
If you’re looking for an even better deal, check their clearance items. Right now they have the furniture covers with minor cosmetic flaws in the fleece on sale at 40% off so, a 60X60 is only $35. To make a sweet deal even sweeter, they’re running a free shipping promo. You might also be happy to know that their blankets are sewn in the USA.
I am not affiliated with this company in any way and I bought my own blanket. I was just so excited to find a good alternative to the Liberator Throe that I had to tell you all about it.
- Some people were looking for an alternative because they have personal reasons for not wanting to buy from Liberator. ↩
