Hi everyone, I'm Amber from Rover.com and on today's segment of 'Is It Worth the Money?'
we're gonna be talking about the Yeti Lowlands Blanket.
If you remember a few months ago we reviewed the Yeti Boomer Bowl, which is a dog bowl made by Yeti.
So when they came out with this lowlands blanket we wanted to give it a try.
We noticed that a lot of the marketing materials advertise it as
being something that's really great for dogs.
They tout it as something that's gonna easily shake off pet hair after you use it with your dog,
so we kind of wanted to give it a go to see if it's something really that is you know
necessary or a good item to have for anyone who has pets.
So that's we're gonna be taking a look at today.
So, first off when you get this in the mail it comes in this super nice case.
So this is something that's nice to have to kind of contain mud or anything if you have that on the blanket.
So it also comes in two colors.
We opted for the red just because the gray is know just a little bit more tame, and we thought the red was nice.
It kind of has a heathered look and I really like that.
Alright
So first impressions on the blanket is that this red side is really soft.
and it is a lot softer than the gray side,
It also has the little, instead of having grommet holes or something like that it has these little fabric pieces
that you can use to stick it to the grass which a lot
of people in the reviews have said that they do and that works really well
to make sure it doesn't get crumpled or anything when you sit on it.
And for me, I would see this being practical if I were you know summertime at the dog park
around here in the Seattle area we have a lot of dog parks that are either on Puget Sound
or on lakes around here, and it's going to make it so that when your
dog jumps in, super wet and muddy from the dog park, it's not gonna,
the water and the mud, and kind of grossness isn't gonna just seep through
and get into the carpet of your car.
So this would be something that you could just throw down also put a towel on top of it
and make it like a cozy little spot for your dog in the back of the car when you're on the way home.
So what I've noticed a lot in my product research here at Rover
is there's a difference between waterproof and water resistant.
I think water resistant is just kind of a way for people to market outdoor products
that aren't necessarily what you're looking for, and this one is waterproof.
So, I've seen a lot of stuff out there labeled wrong,
and so we took some water to this just to see what exactly happened on both sides
and it just rolls right off, which is really nice
So as with any Yeti product, this blanket is made to last.
so it's super-durable it's gonna last you a super long time.
You can beat it up, you could be super nice to it, make sure it keeps in this pristine condition all the time.
But really it's made for whatever that you throw at it and that's kind of where the value comes from.
All right so it's time to get down to business.
This blanket is pushing $200 so is it worth the money?
If you're only going to be using it for one thing, which is to have it in your car
for your dog to lay on after the dog park for a couple minutes each way to and from home it might not be.
You know towels are probably sufficient.
But, if this is gonna be something that you're gonna pack up take it everywhere with you,
camping, you know road trips, anywhere you go backpacking with your dog.
If it has more than one use and you can see yourself you know using it for your dog
but also for yourself, and your family, and picnics things like that,
then I think it is something that would be worth considering.
You can also tuck this into the basket on your Yeti scooter when those launch.
Alright everybody, so that wraps it up.
