Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

Here’s the Test results folks- 02/24/19 So I did the gentle wash with zero issues, yes there was a little bit of lint left in the washer as most reviews said there would be but I just use a WET wash rag and it wiped right out EASILY. Tumble dried with zero issues- filled the lint trap but again as expected so just clean out like normal. Rug was not soaking wet as some of the bad reviews said- no damage to the rug, maybe they don’t have a decent washer and dryer idk. (I mopped the tile floor before test to help see a difference) Shoe Test- I did two. One like As Seen On TV, I went out on a rainy day and let my shoes get wet and a little muddy but nothing ridiculous- took two steps on the rug with both shoes (didn’t “wipe” my feet) and there was still lots of wet and muddy foot prints on the printer paper I placed on the floor after the rug- took two steps each on the paper. See first two pictures. Then the dog- I asked him to sit when he came in. He moved his feet a few times and did a few turns on the rug then I let him walk on the paper and onto the tile- still lots of wet and muddy paw prints on the paper and on the tile. Lots. See first two pictures. Then I went outside and got my feet a little wet and muddy again, came in and wiped my feet like normal. Maybe 5 or 6 good wipes back and forth and side to side, unfortunately the paper showed my foot prints again. See 3rd picture. So in my opinion this rug does not work as described, there is nothing magical about it and it does not prevent foot prints from tracking through the house. I have put the rub back in the box and will be sending it back as I already have a rug that doesn’t prevent foot prints from tracking through the house that is twice as big as this one. Hope this helps!
