The Liberator Decor Fascinator Throe is a large waterproof blanket that is five feet long and four feet wide. The Decor Throe varies from the regular Throe in the material and color that is used for the Throe. The Decor Throe is offered in colors that are supposed to be more muted in tone and are supposed to match your bedroom’s colors much better. I picked up the black Decor Fascinator Throe just to match the blankets we already have sitting on our bed. Our bright red Throe just doesn’t match nearly as naturally. The Throe comes with a one-year warranty as well.
You know, I have to admit that I already own one of the Liberator microfiber Throes. I absolutely love it. It’s probably one of my favorite sex toys, and it’s always held every liquid that we’ve thrown on it. It seems like we’re going to have the same great experience with our Decor Throe. Aside from the material, it seems to hold up in the exact same manner as our old Throe has which makes me a happy camper. Two liquid-defying Throes? I think I can get used to that.
The two Throes differ in material. The original Throe has a plushy microfiber sides with a satin side. The new Decor Throe has a velvish side along with the satin side. The original Throe is much softer and much more sensual, but I can’t say that, with 100% certainty, it’s because of the material. It could just as likely be because we’ve watched our old Throe a lot more than we have our new Throe. Our old Throe also makes a lot less crinkly noise which is something that I know is due to the washing since the old one used to make as much noise as the new Throe.
Both blankets do make crinkly noises though. The noise is the sound of the water barrier moving around inside the blanket. While this noise is pretty much impossible to “stop” from happening, it is the main purpose behind the blanket, so I can’t say that I mind it too much. It’s not a horrible crinkling noise either, and it’s not something that will distract you from the sex at hand either. It’s something that doesn’t make it the best candidate for cuddling, but if it’s the only blanket available, it’s not horrible either. The noise is only about as annoying as a cell phone vibration going off, so it’s nothing horrible nor too horribly loud.
I like the Libeator Decor Throe just because it looks so sexy. The satin side is amazingly soft, and the Velvish side, while not as soft as the microfiber, still feels sexy. Both sides just exude “sex” to me, and when I lay around the blanket, it just makes me feel more sexy too. The satin side can get a bit slick during sex, though, so you might want to use the velvish side if you plan on doing any sort of thrusting where bodies sliding around would get annoying.
I’m sure you could go out and purchase a waterproof bed liner from your local store or you could just continue to use towels to soak up messes during sex. However, it’s just not the same. The material on this blanket is a lot more sensual, and it feels amazing up against the skin. Plus, unlike towels, this thing holds a LOT of liquid, so you don’t have to worry about any of your liquid soaking through and destroying your furniture. I will note that, unlike a towel, this blanket does take up a lot more space in the washer and dryer machines, though. It doesn’t take up a full load, but it is about the same size as a small blanket in there. However, after going through the wash, the blanket always comes out looking brand new and even softer which is a great feature.
So how waterproof is this thing? Well, let’s say that this thing holds a LOT of water. The boyfriend and I made a mistake of throwing it into a bathtub of water after use to try and keep it moist until we got it into the washing machine, and it soaked up all the water! The blanket actually became way too heavy to move. We had to wait until the blanket had dried a bit to even actually move the thing into the washing machine. It holds a whole lot of liquid. It’s actually amazing how much this thing will protect your mattress and furniture. The Throe doesn’t always absorb the liquid; it usually sits on the surface for a bit then slowly absorbs. There isn’t much in terms of puddling on the surface of the blanket though.
How much liquid will this hole? A lot. Sex juices easily are held by the blanket. I’d even imagine that you could do watersports play with this blanket with absolutely no issues. I’m sure I could pour an entire bottle of water onto the blanket itself with no issue to the furniture underneath it. The blanket definitely protects any of your furniture surfaces from messes which is absolutely amazing. I can’t believe how much the Decor Throe actually will hold!
The Fascinator Throe actually has some non-sex uses as well. If you have children to tend to spill a lot, this blanket could now be their new “play” blanket. (I would be careful about this since it’s hard to see this blanket as sexy if your kids have been spilling things on it all day.) It can be used as a sleeping blanket if you are running short on blankets. It also makes a gorgeous background for photography as well which is fun.
The most amazing thing about this blanket is that it can just be tossed into the washer for cleaning. You don’t have to take any special time out of your day to clean it. It can be a bit large to store, but it’s just a blanket, so it’s not like it requires any special discreet storage. You could keep it at the foot of your bed or under your bed for easy usage.
The Decor Fascinator Throe (and the original Throe) are both amazingly useful items to have in my bedroom. Instead of worrying about who is sleeping in the wet spot or who is going to have to clean the sheets in the morning, this Throe can be used then tossed in a corner until the next morning. It feels sensual, and when the blanket is pulled out, I know it’s time to do something fun, so it ends up becoming a fun part of our bedroom routine.
