It could still be used as a nice, soft throw - you could either just detach where the plug connects to the throw, or snip a hole and pull out the internal wires if you wanted rid of them completely. (Or of course someone with more knowhow might be able to fix it). It just stopped turning on randomly one day, and since it was under warranty I'm getting a new one so no longer needed!
