Interesting question! These pads absorb liquid real well but that's measured by our pack of five miniature dachshunds. When you say splashes and dribbles my wife and I agree these would do well. However, if somehow a large bowl was tipped over (stepped into) there would be some amount of liquid that might overwhelm the pads.

Yes, it would work fine fir that. I'm assuming you have a large dog and a normal place mat wouldn't work. My fog is only 10 lbs but even if he pees on the edge, the urine is soaked up immediately. I too have new floors and was concerned. I'd go for it. Plus, they wash up beautifully.

These are quite good but I have actually used the Lola Bean International training pads more for some reason. The Lola Bean pads do not soak thru to the floor so I would try those first. Good Luck!"Lola Bean International 24-Inch by 24-Inch Washable Pet Training Pads, 2-Pack"

They ARE porous. If you have a dainty drinker I think you'll be OK but if you have a dog who slobbers water there will eventually be dampness underneath as the water is wicked away from the top. In that case I think a rubber mat would be best for you.

Depends on your shower setup. Mine just reaches the faucet but does not cover it so you have complete access to the controls. I also was going to buy the glue on option but I bought these instead. I watched the video that showed the easy installation. I have had these now for quite a while and they do work to keep your floors dry. There is a way to defeat this product(we found out when we had a guest who did not understand about the shower curtain curve in the front): the curtain should hang as shown. It should be flush against the wall, and depending how close the person likes to stand under the shower head, you may have to check that the curtain is set against where the wall meets the tub. (Our son stands closer to the middle of the tub: no splash off the body issue. Our guest liked to stand right under the showerhead: lots of splash from body) It also helps if you get shower curtain hooks that are open on both ends so when you need to change shower liner/curtain, it is alot easier. You can get them here on Amazon: they look like anchors: see Maytex Mills Double Glide Shower rings for example on Amazon.

I have been using the same pair with my both 8' and 9' cake pans and have also used them with my spring form pans. They work as advertised and when I purchased mine, I received a very good deal from the vendor. They do help with cakes in having a more level top and the cake pulls away for the sides better. Hope this helps. I have not used a water bath before, so I would be no help in that part of the question.

Well the mat is not absorbent. The water would be retained on top. Depending on the amount of water I wouldn't think so.

These are generally safe for flushing. The only reason I could see this having any issues is if there is a clog with in your buildings pipes. Once past that however there is no issue. I would suggest getting a drain cleaner and using that if you are concerned of a clogging issue. Toilet paper can cause issues if there is already a buildup.

I have seen such tiles used in shower areas but I think that they would be too slippery. I put them on a bathroom floor but also have rugs on the floor.

What a great idea! They towels should hold up in the water. I sometimes wet them and use to wipe down bathroom sink area. They don't shred or fall apart but then I don't leave them sitting in water, either. They are nice and large, when unfolded.

I use them to put coins in them....so far they work great for protection for the coins....haven't tried putting liquid in them....putting liquid in them and handling constantly I think they would start leaking...hope I helped......

I only used these tiles to cover a small table top. I would think they would be very slippery when wet. Coveri g old tiles? I don't think that would work.

They do not work well midstream. I tried with one. The absorbent part is covered on top by a little strip of plastic. It might have worked better if I held it sideways, but I only tried it once and I didn't want to waste anymore that way. I think you're better of just dipping it.

yes, but not for water. They would hold something else. There is only one water dish

They are made to stop the vibrations of heavy machinery where the heavy machinery is the source. In your case the source of the vibration is the neighbor's feet. I'm not sure it would work, but I can't rule it out either. You could experiment first with cutting up an old bath rug and placing it under each of the bed's feet to see if you notice any difference prior to spending more money.

I cant give you a yes or no answer. I also have a small dog. I can only tell you that if you want a thicker pad Pee Pee pads works better for me. I tried these pads because they were a litttle more affordable. But I find it to be too thin for me. But im sure it will absorb dog urine. I will leave another review once my dog use these pads. But currently in finishing up the ones i still have....

Hi Dorothy. I would not consider absorbancy to be a major attribute of this pad. It is like Astro Turf and the bottom of the pad does not have padding that would completely block urine from going through. The pad does "repel" small amounts of liquid though (as mentioned in the product description). We bought the pad primarily to catch litter from cats' paws on their way out. It is also good to catch any feces that might attach to your cat's tail. We have a long hair Main Coon, and sometimes he has issues with that. The pad provides ample coverage and the neutral tone goes with pretty much any decor. Let me know if you have any more questions.

I would think that as long as you get the appropriate size bowl, the projections inside the bowl would help with that as well. The projections inside the bowl prevent the dog from sticking his whole snout inside the bowl, and that would work for water too as long as the bowl was the proper size for the size of the dog-notice that the bowl does come in different sizes.

These are peel and stick vinyl floor tiles. They work well for that and, would probably look very nice behind a sink or area's not exposed to direct flame or burners. I'm not sure how well it would work for a back splash if it were behind your stove. Use caution and research about fire hazard specs. Is a beautiful pattern and we are very pleased with our purchase.

I think these tiles would work well for that. I got them for my garage because a lot of water was collecting on the floor from snow off of my cars. The water sat under the tiles without getting wet on the surface.
