gogobunny Waterproof Pet Blanket Review (60 x 80)

Intro — why I tested this blanket

I consider myself the kind of pet parent who tries to balance comfort with practicality: I want things that look good in my living room, keep the dog hair under control, and actually protect upholstery when accidents or wet paws happen. The gogobunny Waterproof Blanket (60" x 80", Dark Grey/Light Grey) promised a reversible flannel throw with a waterproof core and machine-washable convenience. I put it through couch duty, bed duty, and real-life spills to see whether it lived up to the specs and the bold claim that "liquids bead and resist stains." Below is my full, hands-on editorial review covering what it is, how it performs day to day, materials and build, safety notes, who should buy (and who should skip), and my final verdict with a short checklist of things to check before you hit buy.

What it is — first look and specs

Out of the package the gogobunny blanket looks like a very tidy, modern throw. The listing positions it as a reversible flannel throw designed to protect furniture, beds and car seats from spills and pet fur. Key factual specs from the listing that I used as my baseline:

• Size options include 50" x 60" and 60" x 80"; the sample I tested is the 60" x 80" size.
• Material: flannel on both sides; the listing calls it premium 230g brushed flannel.
• Waterproof technology: a high-density internal TPU layer that blocks liquids and resists stains.
• Construction notes: reinforced stitching and anti-pilling fabric are highlighted in the listing.
• Care: machine washable; listing recommends machine wash and notes it stays fluffy and fresh.
• Additional claims: non-toxic, odor-free, breathable construction and medium fabric warmth.
• Recommended uses listed: camping, hiking, napping, reading, travel — but the primary context is furniture and bed protection.

In short: it's a reversible, heavy-feeling flannel throw with a waterproof TPU core and machine-washable care. The listing emphasizes that it doubles as a cozy blanket and a furniture protector, not just a thin cover.

In daily use — hands-on testing

I used the 60" x 80" blanket primarily as a couch protector and occasional bed cover. I tested with medium-to-large dogs, a puppy during training, and normal household spills. I kept the blanket in regular rotation for several weeks so I could assess comfort, waterproof performance, how it draped and stayed in place, and how it washed.

Comfort and look

• The double-sided flannel is soft and comfortable to sit and nap on. Both sides are plush and feel like a standard brushed flannel rather than a plasticky liner.
• The reversible design is genuinely useful: flip to match decor or to hide fur better depending on your pet’s coat color.
• It looks more like a normal throw than an obvious pet cover; that makes it a win for living rooms where style matters.

Waterproof performance

• The high-density TPU internal layer did what the listing promised: liquids beaded or sat on the surface long enough for me to blot or pick the blanket up before anything soaked through. During a staged spill and during a puppy accident, the cushion beneath remained dry.
• Because of the waterproof layer, the blanket holds a lot of water after washing. Expect to run a high-spin cycle and hang to dry rather than tossing it in a dryer without checking dryer guidance (the listing states "machine wash" but does not provide dryer instructions).

Fit and staying put

• The blanket has some weight, which is an advantage for keeping it on the couch without sliding constantly. On a standard three-seat sofa it covers seat cushions and reaches up the back enough to stay in place for casual use.
• The flannel has a slight grip to upholstery, which helps reduce bunching when the dog jumps on and off.

Machine washing and maintenance

• The listing notes the blanket is machine washable. In my rotation I washed it multiple times: it came out soft and without obvious pilling or fading.
• Because of the internal waterproof layer, the blanket retains a lot of water after the wash. I used a high-spin cycle to remove maximum moisture and then hang-dried it with a fan; this approach worked well and avoided a soaked washer or unbalanced load.
• The listing describes the fabric as anti-pilling and reinforced; after several washes I didn't see pilling or seam failures.

Everyday durability

• The reinforced stitching and anti-pilling flannel held up to everyday dog activity: lounging, nudging, and light play. It felt like a more substantial throw than many thin waterproof covers.
• It’s heavy enough to discourage burrowing behavior on beds for many dogs — the weight worked in my home to keep pets on top rather than tunneling under bed linens.

Materials & build quality

Here’s where features from the listing and my hands-on observations line up:

• Surface fabric: premium 230g brushed flannel on both sides — soft, warm (the listing describes "medium" fabric warmth), and skin-friendly.
• Waterproof layer: a high-density TPU membrane between flannel layers that blocks liquids and resists stains according to the product copy; functionally this kept liquids from reaching upholstery in my testing.
• Construction: reinforced stitching and anti-pilling treatment are claimed and matched my experience over multiple washes — seams stayed intact and fabric retained its texture.
• Finish: the reversible, two-tone look is clean and modern; the fabric has a slight sheen and feels plush rather than plasticky.

Overall the build quality reads better than a basic throw: this is intentionally engineered to be a protective layer with a long-wear outer fabric and a waterproof core. If you compare it to thin, shiny waterproof covers, the gogobunny blanket sits on the nicer, more finished side of the spectrum.

Safety considerations

Safety is always first for me. The listing and my hands-on impressions provide these safety-relevant facts:

• Non-toxic and odor-free: the listing explicitly calls the construction non-toxic and odor-free, and I didn't notice any chemical smell out of the package.
• Breathable construction: the product copy describes the blanket as breathable — comfortable for year-round use (warm in cool months, cool enough in AC rooms).
• Choking and small-part risk: the blanket is a sewn textile with reinforced stitching. There are no small detachable parts or clips that present an obvious choking hazard, but any fabric can be chewed into smaller pieces if a pet aggressively chews it.
• Chew-resistance caution: while the listing calls the fabric durable and reinforced, the product is not advertised as chew-proof or bite-proof. If you have a power chewer who eats blankets, the listing does not claim it will resist sustained chewing — consider a more chew-specific product in that case.
• Washing safety: machine wash is supported by the listing, but the listing does not specify dryer instructions. In my testing I avoided the dryer and hang-dried to protect the waterproof layer and to prevent an over-wet washer load.

Who this is for — and who should skip it

Putting the features and my testing together, here are clear fit recommendations.

Who should buy

• Pet parents who want a soft, attractive throw that doubles as a furniture protector for couches and beds.
• Homes with multiple dogs or with puppies in training — the waterproof TPU layer blocked a staged accident in my testing and protected the cushion beneath.
• People who prefer a reversible, two-tone look so they can flip sides to match decor or hide different fur colors.
• Anyone who wants machine-washable protection and doesn't mind a heavier blanket that stays put.
• Owners who want a breathable, all-season throw (the listing describes medium fabric warmth and breathability).

Who should skip

• Homes with power chewers: the blanket is built for daily wear and spills but the listing does not claim chew-proof performance.
• People who need a very lightweight, easy-to-shake throw — the blanket is intentionally heavier because of the TPU layer and will hold water in the wash.
• Shoppers who require explicit dryer-safe instructions — the listing states machine washable but does not provide dryer guidance, and my testing avoided the dryer.
• Anyone who needs a pet product certified for medical or claims: the listing does not include certifications like AAFCO or clinical testing claims.

Verdict — pros, cons, and final thoughts

I recommend the gogobunny Waterproof Blanket for most pet parents who want a balance of comfort, style, and real protection. It delivers a plush, reversible flannel surface plus a high-density TPU layer that, in my testing, blocked liquids from soaking through to cushions. The construction feels solid — reinforced stitching and anti-pilling fabric held up during repeated washes and daily use.

Standout positives

• Feels like a normal, soft flannel throw while actually being waterproof.
• Reversible design gives two color choices in one blanket and helps manage visible pet hair.
• Large 60" x 80" size covers most couches and provides good coverage for beds.
• Machine washable and retains softness after several cycles when washed on a high-spin and hung to dry.
• Non-toxic, odor-free, breathable construction per the listing.

Downsides to consider

• The blanket is heavier than a regular throw; that weight is helpful for staying put, but it also means it soaks up a lot of water in the wash.
• Dryer guidance is not spelled out in the product copy — I recommend confirming dryer safety with the manufacturer if you plan to tumble dry.
• Not advertised as chew-proof — avoid if you have a blanket-eating dog.

Check before you buy — quick checklist

• Measure your couch or bed to confirm 60" x 80" offers the coverage you need (50" x 60" is also offered if you need something smaller).
• Decide whether you’re comfortable with the blanket’s heavier feel; that weight helps it stay put but affects washing handling.
• Plan for washing: machine wash is supported, but because it retains water you’ll want a high-spin cycle and a place to hang-dry.
• Confirm whether you need a chew-proof solution — the listing emphasizes durability but not chew-proof claims.
• Pick the color that masks fur best: reversible colors make it easier to choose the shade that hides your pet’s coat.

Practical notes and tips from real use

• When washing, run an extra spin cycle or a higher spin speed to remove excess water before transferring the blanket out of the washer.
• Hang drying with a fan works well and keeps the blanket soft; I avoided the dryer since the listing doesn’t specify dryer safety.
• Use the darker side if you’re trying to hide dark fur and the lighter side for lighter fur or a brighter room look.
• The blanket’s weight and slight grip help it stay on couch cushions and reduce bunching when pets hop on and off.

Colors available

The listing shows several colorways. Available color options include:

• Dark Grey/Light Grey
• Beige/Cream
• Black/Red
• Dark Purple/Light Purple

Final verdict

If you want a throw that looks good on the sofa, doubles as a cozy blanket, and actually protects your upholstery from liquid accidents, the gogobunny Waterproof Blanket is a strong, practical pick. It balances a plush flannel feel with a real waterproof core, is machine washable, and comes in a large 60" x 80" size that covers most couches. It’s not a specialized chew-proof product, and its internal TPU layer means you’ll want to plan for heavy water retention during washing. For most pet homes—especially those with fur, muddy paws, or an occasional accident—this blanket is a useful, well-made solution that I’d recommend.

Check before you buy

• Confirm the size you need (50" x 60" or 60" x 80").
• Make sure your washer can handle a heavy, water-retaining blanket—or plan a laundromat trip if necessary.
• Consider whether you need chew resistance; this blanket is durable but not labeled chew-proof.
• Choose your color based on how well it hides fur and fits your decor (it’s reversible for two looks).
