Waterproof Blankets Are The Ultimate Life Hack

When we first launched our Lifesaver Mats, we had no idea just how many ways our customers would use them. Originally created as a solution for potty training accidents, these waterproof blankets have grown into something so much more—thanks to you.

From new babies to aging pets, hurricane-force winds to heartfelt homeownership wins, the Lifesaver Mat has become the ultimate life hack for messy moments. Available in five sizes—XXL, Lush XL, XL, Original, and Mini—there’s a Lifesaver Mat for every occasion, big or small.

Whether you're tackling life's chaos or just want to protect your furniture (or your sanity), this is the one item you'll wonder how you ever lived without.

Real Life. Real Messes. Real Customers.

Here are just a few of the clever and heartfelt ways you’ve told us you use your Lifesaver Mats:

Guinea Pig Tested. Human Approved: 

“I use it in my guinea pig's cage. It’s great for absorbing pee and spilled water. Plus, it’s soft—he likes to snuggle in it like any other blanket. Except this one I know he won't ruin! Thanks Lil Helper for an excellent product and awesome customer support.”
— Jey

Pet messes? Covered. From cages and crates to unexpected accidents, the Lifesaver Mat is a reusable, washable alternative to disposable pads. Soft, absorbent, and built to last—even for your furriest family members.

Appliance Delivery Nightmare? Saved by a Blanket.

“I bought the Lifesaver Mat for, let’s say, ‘bedroom fun’—but it ended up saving my brand-new fridge (and home). After a delivery fail, hurricane winds, and no way to get the fridge inside, we used our mats to protect it from the storm and again to get it through a window the next day. Total game changer!”
— A very relieved homeowner

Waterproof, windproof, wonderful. If it can handle mattress protection, it can definitely take on coastal storms and last-minute delivery disasters.

Make Babies on It. Have Babies on It.

We’ve heard it all: water breaking at 3am, home births, and sweet new beginnings all happening on a Lifesaver Mat.

Designed to absorb fluids and protect surfaces, it’s no surprise our mats are trusted during the most intimate, powerful moments in life. From conception to delivery (literally), these waterproof wonders do it all.
