We love this pet place mat. It keeps our floors nice and dry-the tile gets slippery when wet and children tend to slip-but not with this. It's very effective and easy to clean.
We have been through so many dog placemats that I have lost count. This is the best. Our dogs are unable to push it around the kitchen and any spill wipe up very easily and it also looks great. When you put this mat down it stay put. My husband even thinks its great and he is a hard one to please.
I bought six of these for Christmas to neaten up the kitchen area. They look great and were definitely an improvement over the look of the previous mats. However, quality of product is another story. The holidays are over and decided to wash these up. Three out of six washed well, looking like new. The other three mats separated a good inch around the diameter of the mat. The carpet-like top separated from the rubber backing. Had it been only one mat, I would have considered it a defective product. Three? 50%? No, that pretty much gives it the axe for me. We will use them until the finish falling apart, but will not replace them with the same product. I will look somewhere else for better quality.
Response from L.L.BeanBy L.L.Bean Product Team, January 18, 2013
We're sorry you're disappointed with these mats and we'd like to help. It sounds like you may have washed your mats in a machine. We recommend vacuuming or sweeping, and for a more thorough cleaning, washing with water and a mild liquid dish soap, plus a spray nozzle or scrub brush (wash, rinse and hang to drip dry).
In the meantime, please give us a call so we can help arrange an exchange or refund. We want you to be perfectly happy with every purchase from L.L.Bean, and we back this with our 100% satisfaction guarantee. Thanks for taking time to share your comments, and again, we apologize for the inconvenience.
