The BlissPillow waterproof blanket is machine washable. You can launder it in a standard home washing machine on a gentle, cool cycle, then tumble dry low or air dry. Washing the right way keeps the plush surface soft and preserves the waterproof barrier, so the blanket stays reliable for years of regular use.
How to Machine Wash It Properly
Caring for the Waterproof Lovers Blanket is refreshingly simple, which is one of the main reasons couples choose it over wipe-only options. Place it in the machine on its own or with a light load, select a gentle cycle, and use cool or warm water rather than hot. Hot water and harsh chemicals are the two things most likely to stress any waterproof membrane over time, so skipping them is the single most important habit.
Use a mild detergent and skip fabric softener, since softeners can leave a coating that dulls both the soft feel and the protective layer. For drying, a low-heat tumble or simply hanging it to air dry works best. Avoid high heat, which is the most common cause of premature wear on waterproof fabrics. Done this way, washing takes no more effort than any other blanket, and it comes out fresh and ready to use.
Why Machine Washability Is a Big Deal
For an intimate-use blanket, easy cleaning is not a luxury, it is the whole point. A blanket you can simply toss in the wash removes the hesitation that comes with worrying about mess, which means you actually relax and enjoy the moment. Wipe-clean throws, by contrast, can trap odor and never feel fully fresh, no matter how carefully you spot-clean them.
Machine washability also protects your investment. Regular, gentle washing prevents buildup and keeps the fabric performing as designed, which is a big part of why a well-cared-for waterproof blanket can stay dependable for years. In short, the convenience is practical and it pays off in longevity, comfort, and confidence.
Toss it in the wash. Relax tonight.

Common Mistakes to Avoid
A few honest cautions will keep your blanket in top shape. Avoid bleach, which can degrade waterproof coatings, and skip high-heat drying, which is the fastest way to shorten a waterproof layer's life. Do not iron the protective side, and resist the urge to wash on a heavy or sanitize cycle thinking it cleans better, since a gentle cycle already does the job without added stress on the fabric.
One realistic trade-off worth naming: like any waterproof textile, the barrier is not immortal. Treated gently it lasts a long time, but consistently hot washes or aggressive drying will wear it faster. The good news is that normal, careful care is easy and keeps the blanket fresh and protective season after season.
