Few issues, but I have bought several of these for a bunch of uses!!
OK it is about time I wrote a review on these seeing as I have purchased about 6 of them out of pocket because I like them so much. They have one MAJOR issue, but they are still the best mats out there right now honestly, so I just hope they read this and make some changes.
First the bad: If you have a pet that will pee on these mats, these are a pain in the butt to clean! As most of us know, cat urine smell is a nightmare to get out of things~ you have to get it all off quickly and give it a good soak with urine gone or something. These mats will SEEP THROUGH to the bottom padding which honestly feels like a coated foam of some kind to make it nice to step on, but urine can still get in there really good and it will seep through to the floor. This is made even worse by the fact that the mats are plush with the woven plastic texture, so you may go days before seeing that someone peed on the mat, I have to lift and check every few days to make sure but the color of the mat makes it hard to even see honestly.
PLEASE Easyology FIX THE BOTTOM!! these are great but give them something to prevent seeping through to the floor and making urine easier to wash away from that plush bottom part, a thicker layer of plastic coating or something maybe? Its such a minor thing to the design that could be fixed. These are made to go by a litter box so they should resist urine seeping in and all the way through the pad to the floor.
PLEASE Easyology MAKE MORE COLORS. Make a light pink or light blue! The colors are a good start, but a cute color please!!
PLEASE MAKE A LONG RUNNER SIZE! They are all a tad fat and wide, a runner style one would be great.
Now for the good!
These are hands down the nicest looking litter mats and overall plastic mats for a house if you are going through rugs too often, they can be hosed off and cleaned quickly if you make a spill. They are great for a rug that is plush feeling (yes, they are plastic but feel soft and plush on bare feet!) while still being plastic material.
I first got these for my disabled cat who has a hard time walking on anything not carpet. Throw rugs got filthy fast and he would pee on them right away so I would be washing things often and trash them monthly. Other litter mats looked so ugly and had cats or brand names on them... I just wanted a rug that would work. These are huge and he can walk on them easily, plus for my cat anyway he is not attracted to peeing on them 99% of the time (I keep ugly easy to spray off other litter mats around his pee zones for that since as I said these are hard to clean) but the BEST thing is they are very large and look almost like a proper rug so while my guest bathroom is still "cat land" it looks a little nicer with these rugs if I need to stash the litter box when company is here! If they were easier to wash I would get rid of my last ugly grey washable mats.
I liked these so much I bought one for my tile kitchen, I had rugs that would slide everyplace or get dirty after cooking, but the grey of these look really nice in the kitchen and are soft to stand on! I then when and got MORE for my washer/dryer area in the garage.
As if I had not bought enough, my elderly parents have all tile and due to throw rugs slipping and dirt had just trashed all kitchen, bathroom, and laundry room rugs.... so when I was home visiting I bought them new ones for the kitchen, outside the shower, under the sinks, and laundry area. Sure normal rugs look nicer, but these hose off and are less likely to make them slip so it worked out great.
Ok I have gushed enough about these stupid rugs, but they really are great for a number of reasons and are the least tacky option for many areas when you need this sort of thing!
