How to choose a Waterproof Blanket and which one is right for you? Quickdrying vs Velvety Waterproof Blankets
22 December 2025 by Banana Passion
Wondering how to choose a waterproof blanket that’s perfect for your needs? Banana Passion sells two waterproof blanket styles: QuickDrying and Velvety, and the right one for you depends on how you want it to feel, how you’ll use it, and how quickly you want it to dry. In this article, I’ll help you choose the waterproof blanket that matches your lifestyle.
QuickDrying Waterproof Blanket: Light, cool and fast-drying
The QuickDrying waterproof blanket is ideal if you want something that feels light on the bed, dries quickly after washing and is intended for use during intimacy or messy play rather than as a decorative throw.
Construction: 2 layers with a smooth TPU film on the backside, blanket is about 6 mm thick, so it feels like a thin waterproof towel.
Feel and warmth: Relatively cooler, it suits hot sleepers, warmer climates or anyone who does not like heavy blankets.
Absorbency and drying: Good absorbency, with a key benefit of a fast drying time after washing or heavy use. This one is ready again as soon as you are!
Use cases: Designed primarily as a sex blanket, couples blanket or intimacy blanket that you grab when you want to enjoy yourself without worrying about the mess.
Velvety Waterproof Blanket: Plush, cosy and throw-friendly
The Velvety waterproof blanket is made for those who want their protection to double as a gorgeous, snuggly blanket or throw that can live on the bed or couch all the time.
Construction: 3 layers, blanket is around 10 mm thick, with the same soft fabric on both top and backside, giving a plush, padded feel.
Feel and warmth: On the warmer end, it feels like a cosy blanket or throw you would happily nap under or cuddle with on the sofa.
Absorbency and drying: Great absorbency, soaking up more liquid, with a naturally longer drying time because of the thicker, velvety build. However, if you have a tumble dryer, this dry time can be reduced, as this blanket can be tumble dried on its lowest setting for up to 30 minutes max.
Use cases: Designed to work as a regular-looking throw on your couch or bed, for pets, kids, picnics, camping and of course intimacy and wet play, and splash without anyone realising it is waterproof.
Both QuickDrying and Velvety blankets are designed to protect your bed, couch or play space from wetness while still feeling soft and sensual on the skin. They are fully waterproof, absorbent, machine washable, quick to dry compared to traditional bedding, or some other blankets in the market and safe for direct skin contact as they meet OEKO-TEX Standard 100.
100% waterproof protection to keep your sheets, mattress and furniture dry.
Soft, discreet and silent fabric that does not crinkle like plastic or rubber.
Machine washable and made to be reused again and again, not thrown away after one night.
Side‑by‑side comparison
Here is a clear comparison of the two Banana Passion waterproof blanket styles:
If you’re in Australia or sweat a lot during those long bedroom marathons, you already know a quick-drying blanket is non‑negotiable. It is always reliable and just quietly keeps going, round after round.
The velvety blanket’s plushier mood brings the softest hugs to the party, and remains calm and unbothered no matter what happens.
