Cuddle Puddle Blankets feature a waterproof internal layer, making them both waterproof and absorbent on each side. This waterproof layer consists of 100% recycled Thermoplastic Polyurethane (TPU), ensuring that both sides of the blanket are equipped to handle moisture effectively. The TPU used is non-toxic, BPA-free, and 100% food-grade safe, containing no chemicals that could disrupt the endocrine or hormone systems. Some styles of the blanket have this waterproof layer bonded directly to the fabric on both sides, while in other styles, the waterproof layer is internally separate from the fabric on one side.

Here are some of the uses for the Cuddle Puddle Blanket:

- Intimacy Assistance: The blanket helps prevent the uncomfortable "wet patch" that can occur during intimate moments with a partner or when alone.
- Menstrual Comfort: Ideal for free bleeding during your menstrual cycle when you prefer not to use tampons, menstrual cups, or period underwear.
- Incontinence and Bed Wetting Protection: Provides a reliable solution for managing incontinence or bed wetting, ensuring a dry sleeping area.
- Baby Care: Perfect as a baby blanket during diaper-free time to protect against accidents.
- Birthing and Postpartum Recovery: Serves as a supportive blanket during childbirth and helps with postpartum recovery by managing fluids.
- Pet Comfort: Can be used as a comforting blanket for pets, protecting furniture and floors from pet-related messes.

· The Cuddle Puddle Blanket can absorb up to a liter of liquid. Rather than allowing the liquid to pool on the surface like many waterproof mats, Cuddle Puddle Blankets absorb and retain the liquid, thus safeguarding any surfaces below. Depending on the dimensions of the blanket, it may absorb even more than one liter! The OG and DV blankets are also resistant to stains, making them an essential item for activities such as free bleeding, birthing, and other messy situations.

· If you leave your Cuddle Puddle Blanket in the tumble dryer for an excessive period (more than 30 minutes), the inner TPU layer may melt, causing the blanket to become crunchy and less effective. Please adhere to our detailed washing instructions to prevent this issue.

· Your Cuddle Puddle Blanket might develop an odor if you a) use the delicate wash setting, b) use insufficient laundry detergent, or c) fail to dry it properly. Avoid using vinegar or fabric softener. Instead, opt for a long, warm wash with a fast spin cycle and dry it in direct sunlight.

· Due to the frequent washing of Cuddle Puddle Blankets, they may exhibit signs of wear and tear from the rigorous washing process. While most blankets will keep their waterproof properties for many years, some may begin to lose their waterproofing after 12 months of regular washing.

· It is common to hear a noise from your Cuddle Puddle Blanket after washing, as it includes a layer of 100% recycled plastic Thermoplastic Polyurethane (TPU) that is fused to the inside fabric. If your blanket has been in the dryer for over 30 minutes, the TPU layer may have melted, resulting in a crunchy sound. It is crucial to follow our precise washing guidelines.

· While pets, particularly cats, enjoy the Cuddle Puddle Blanket, they can damage the material by piercing or tearing it while kneading, which can compromise the blanket’s waterproof effectiveness.

· For those who plan to use their Cuddle Puddle Blanket frequently, which involves regular washing, it may be more practical to choose smaller blankets as they are easier to wash and quicker to dry. Keeping several Cuddle Puddle Blankets in rotation is recommended.
