We use this under our dogs food and water bowls, (because he's really messy) and it does a great job of protecting our laminate floors! It makes an otherwise utility looking space, pretty!

This is Mommy's Little Helper! With two hyper kids who track in all sorts of stuff, their friends, a big dog and me (who hikes, gardens and tracks in all sorts of stuff) I am always fussing over the floor in the foyer, living room and kitchen. In the summer I want to walk around barefoot and I HATE having anything stick to my feet, and I do yoga in the living room, which gives me a really good look at my carpet.

My old vacuum was a Dyson, which I loved, but it's heavy and with arthritis in my shoulders there are just some days I couldn't use it. This little guy solved all my problems. Push a button, off he goes, he does a great job going from tile to carpet, circling the entire main floor. The stairway down has a tiny lip and he's only made like a lemming and tumbled once. Either he learned or it was just a fluke that he didn't catch the edge and turn. Either way, not having to remember to block that is very useful.

I've had mine two years now. The little blades are easy to replace (I replace them when they look torn up and sad). The filters work great (I brush them off each time I empty the bin and replace every 4 or 5 months). And while he occasionally gets stuck in interesting places and cries for help, it hasn't been a problem. I usually nudge him down with a foot, tap his button, he revs his engine and gets back to work. When he gets stuck under a bed discovering something the kids have hidden, that's a bigger issue. Cereal boxes he can push out but a Halloween's worth of candy wrappers in one sitting will choke him.

Neato customer service was great the one time I had to call them (machine was fine, I was confused), and about the only down is getting the little guy to dock correctly. It worked fine at our old house but here I can't find a place that works, so I set that aside and I plug him in manually, which means he has to be unplugged to work. But the littlest kid is trained to 'unleash' him so that's solved for me too.

Twice a week, sometimes upstairs and downstairs, for two years (so at least 208 cleanings) and I would buy my Neato again without hesitation. If you like a clean floor and you have a busy house, this is a sanity saver!

I have had this for several weeks now and really love it. It's easy to clean and does an awesome job at catching the litter.
I just wanted to mention that on the pamphlet included with it, some remark was made to the effect of cats not liking the texture and therefore not using it to scratch their claws. Sorry, I tossed the pamphlet so I don't have the exact quote.
My two cats, apparently, never got that memo. They both scratch at it at least a bit every day, and seem to quite enjoy themselves. However, the mat is sufficiently sturdy that even when they scratch the litter doesn't pop out and make a mess. Also, there's no visible damage to the mat despite the daily use. I imagine I will have to replace it eventually, and sooner than if my cats were completely ignoring it, but whenever that day comes, I'll definitely get another of these mats. For my little apartment and my two rambunctious cats, this has been excellent!

I am so incredibly grateful to have found these puppy pads with the adhesive sticks on the bottom. I bought the large and XL sizes. My boxer is 13 and recovering from a cluster of seizures and adjusting to new serious medications to manage the seizures and the underlying cause. Sometimes he doesn't realize he has to go until he has to go right at that very moment. Or he can't wait until we see him at the back door to let him out. So we pretty much tiled these on my first floor and pull them up and replace each as it is soiled. We also stick them on our couch cushions under a sheet to catch anything my dog may do while sleeping on the couch, same thing for his dog beds. They don't slide, they hold up to a lot, and the pads are super absorbent as well. The one thing I'm not the biggest fan of is the difficulty removing the adhesive of it does not remain on the pad when you pull it up (on fabric like his dog bed pulling off is no problem at all, adhesive only sometimes sticks to my floor) . It absolutely is possible to remove it without damaging my hardwood floors it's just tedious. But if it were easier they wouldn't stick as well as they do. These wee wee pads are a godsend. I've already ordered a new pack in each size!

This little guy is SUPER effective. It honestly works better than I expected. I have hardwood and ceramic tile floors, and it cleans both extremely well. Much deeper clean that when I use a swiffer, with no streaks. It's super tiny so is easy to store and the battery seems to last a while. It is a bit noisy, and sometimes not so smart (it will run into a wall, and on its double-back run into it again, repeat that about 5 times before it 'learns'). But, the thoroughness of the clean with its simplicity to use, and the phone app, make it way better than having to clean the floors a couple times a week on my own.

I placed this down about 2 weeks ago and since then, my one cat has stopped using the floor and uses the litterbox again.  He is long-haired and I am guessing that he gets the litter caught between his toes and therefore he didn't like using the litterbox before.  But now this mat gets all of the litter off of his feet...it certainly has kept the litter from being tracked on my floor!  I wish I'd gotten this a long time ago.

I've only had this mat for a few days. But during that time, it's worked out amazingly.

I have the litter box in the same room as I have an office. We have hardwood floors. So when our cat uses the box, she takes some of the litter with her. Then it gets scattered across the floor by her or me. I was sweeping that room every day just to keep it all under control.

So far, this product has worked great. At least for our cat. If you have a cat that likes to throw litter as they dig, you may want to purchase additional mats for more coverage.

We went from an all carpet apartment to an hardwood floors in the new condo and knew we had to protect the floors. This set comes with so many that we have extra, which is perfect since we will be replacing a lot of old furniture. The sticker part is strong and definitely has held up as we have rearranged our new place a few times so far. For the amount of pads and the durability, this is an excellent purchase for the price!

We have three feline fur-children and one canine fur-child, and they all shed like their main purpose in life is to cover the furniture with fur.  After lots of research on many different sites, including Amazon, I decided to get this vacuum (mainly for pet hair, but also because toddlers = crushed goldfish crackers if you're not careful).

It's a bit louder and whinier than I was expecting, but HOLY COW does it pick up fur!  I was shocked (and slightly grossed out) by the fur it picked up off our duvet cover, which we keep covered with ANOTHER blanket precisely to reduce the fur balls that the furrballs leave behind.  (So much for that solution.)

It's also great at handling the random messes kids leave around, such as the aforementioned cracker crumbs.

We'll be keeping this one around for a while.

My cat is extremely enthusiastic when she covers her kitty litter deposits. I had to sweep the floor every time she used it. This does great job of keeping the litter from spreading everywhere. Wish I'd bought it sooner. It's not the most aesthetically pleasing mat, but it's not terribly ugly either.

My cat has stage 4 kidney disease. He's started peeing pretty much wherever he sees fit, so we needed something that wasn't going to make us go bankrupt, yet protect the floors, the rugs, and the glass stove-top (yup). While these guys aren't perfect, they do the job well enough that I've ordered a second box because we go through probably 6 or so a day with changing them out in various places around the house.

I like that they're super absorbent. The lining also seems to hold up pretty well. I just wish they weighed a little more, so they didn't get kicked up quite so easily.

I'd absolutely recommend to anyone who has a pet that doesn't go in a box or outside.

Doing a great job in keeping the rug in place on a hard wood floor.

This works great and has really helped contain possible water spills. Some still gets on the floor, so we also have to use a mat, but the problem has now been solved.

I have two dogs and a toddler. This mop saves my laminate kitchen floor without having to deal with buckets and water and chemicals. A little Method floor cleaner squirted on and clean up with this mop. Done. 5 minutes and a clean kitchen. Try to remember not to put them in the dryer, though my husband did accidentally TWICE and other than slight shrinkage they are fine. I wash mine with cloth diapers or towels, no fabric softener and they always work well.

We are using this large mat on the floor between the sink in our island and the 5 burner cooktop built into the cabinet directly behind the sink.  It spans the space perfectly, is non-slip, vacuums up great, and most importantly is protecting the wood floor between these two messy areas. It is large enough that when I open the dishwasher, any drops of water left on the rim, go onto the rug, not the floor. No slipping and no need to worry about wiping up the floor every time the kids use the kitchen!

I bought this because it was the largest mat I could find; my cat digs and sprays litter all over, and this mat has been effective at catching all that litter. However, I've had this mat for several years, so I've gotten very familiar with the hassle of washing it. The plastic rubbery loops are so effective at trapping litter, it's hard to wash them out, so first I shake it out outside, then I spray it directly with the "massage" setting of the handheld showerhead, and then I soak it in the tub for half an hour, with enzyme deodorizer, and then I rinse it again with the massage setting. Even then there are usually (very clean) bits of litter stuck in it. But really the main difficulty is that it's NOT waterproof; my 14 year old cat has lately taken to peeing over the edge of the box, onto the mat, and my floors end up soaked with pee. So I'm replacing this mat with  one that's easier to clean, and lining the floor underneath with a waterproof sheet. The things we do because we love our cats.

We just had our hardwood floors refinished and needed protection around our dishwasher and sink. These mats help protect our floors from water spills
