Easily wash the mat off with water? I washed it in the shower. I hang dried it, let it sit on the carpet, its been almost 24 hours and still very wet!

I usually just shake this to get debris off of it, and when it got "taken out" too many times, I just to trash it. I've never been under the impression that it's something you want to get really wet, but perhaps setting it out in the sun will speed the drying. Perhaps next time just spot clean the area.

Have not washed mine. I have 4 now and use three at the kitchen entry for snow boots. They work awesome because the rubber backing keeps the wet from sinking through. They vacuum very well with an upright vac(they do have a slight nap). I don't think I would saturate them until summer when you can put them outside if you do not live where there is summer weather. I might suggest you lay it over a crate or something like that to dry -maybe in the basement and not flat on solid carpet. Perhaps hold it up sideways and let spray run down to rinse it.

I can not tell you why this is happening to you. I can tell you that my mat is not wet or slimey. After I have dried and put away my dishes I do wipe under the mat and make sure everything is dry. Hope this helps.

Yes I washed the mat with normal baby laundry and it was just fine. I hung it to dry and it dried pretty quickly.

Sorry, Not sure, always take showers. This mat is so sticky I doubt it would matter. When I turn on shower the water hits the outer edge of mat & it's never moved an inch!

I just throw it in the washer with bleach and detergent, and it turns out fine. - I haven't actually had a problem with mold, but washing the mat is part of my routine - maybe yearly, ie - not "needed" often.

Yes, I would say it dries within 10 minutes, probably less. Sometimes my son just fills in the entire mat though, and when he does it takes quite some time to dry

After allowing mat to cool thoroughly...I washed it in warm soapy water. I reused it the next day..and it preformed as before. I love the grill mats...especially for fish and seafood.

If you go over it a couple of times, the carpet is still slightly damp, but it dries quickly. I have used mine 4 or 5 times cleaning my carpet, and it dries in about 1/2 hour

It is heavy. I would be more worried about damaging my washer then I would the mat. If you're just using it to drip dry dishes it shouldn't need to be washed though. I have just rinsed mine off in the sink, but really haven't need to wash it at all.

The mat is a little tacky, and rubbery feeling but works well. Is it more sticky then when it was brand new? If yes, then it isn't all the way clean. There is still oil stuck to the mat. If no, then this is the normal tacky feel of the mat. It can be difficult to get stuck grease off of the mat. I usually have this problem if it is allowed to soak or comes in contact with water for an extended period before cleaning. For some reason this makes the oil stick to the surface. I agree with Melissa. Hot Hot water and a good soap like dawn to clean. Although, I've had to step it up a notch before and use a heavy duty cleaner like 409.

You can wash the mat in the machine on cold and hang to dry. I can't remember the recommended setting, so I always wash it on "delicate" to be safe. All other items are "surface clean only".

Do you mean is it machine washable? I have no idea, but I would not hesitate to do so. I have a shower brush, which is actually an old dish brush, which I take into the shower with me to scrub the mat when it needs it. But I would machine wash it with cold water at a delicate setting without fear!

No need to wipe it down during hot yoga - it is very absorbent, and according to the instructions can be cleaned in the shower. I bought one and found that unless it is quite wet, it is slippery in downward dog and wheel. So make sure to wet it down before practice. I honestly am ambivalent toward the mat. It is okay, but doesn't live up to the literature for me. I am trying another mat now.

No you can't wash it. You can wash the outside cover which is cotton but has some kind of conductive thread in it. The actual conductive side of the mat is plasticky. You could wipe it clean if you wanted or clean it with soap. The non-conductive side if soft rubber foam which eventually peels off completely.

I have had mine now for 3 months and love it. The mat has a tight weave cloth top with I would say a rubberish or neoprene backing. Has not worn at all. I have spilled soda, coffee and water on it. I took mine to the bath tub, rinse it off, left it outside to dry for a few minute and good as new. No stains whatsoever. It is not a hard surface similar to the aluminum or metal pads out there. This is a huge pad btw be sure to check dimensions if you are tight on desk space. Overall I would give it 4 stars. One star removed since the letter P in the lower right hand corner wore off, no biggie. Great value for the money. I have had mine now for 3 months and love it.

Yes, mat is soft to sit. I would describe it as a piece of styrofoam with a spongy feel to it. I returned the product because i didn't think I could clean the mat. Also, I returned the mat because I just don't think the mat adhesive is strong enough if your cleaning your tub using chemicals
