    For Heavy Messes

    Start with a short pre-wash in warm water (up to 140°F / 60°C) using the recommended amount of detergent; we suggest Tide Original to Line 1. Follow with a heavy-duty, longest-cycle wash in warm or cold water, using the full recommended detergent amount. Add other laundry items to create a full load for proper agitation.

    For Everyday or Light Use

    If the mat is lightly soiled or already pre-rinsed, a regular wash cycle in cold or warm water (up to 140°F / 60°C) with the normal amount of detergent is sufficient.

    Do not use bleach, fabric softeners, or natural detergents, as they can affect waterproofing and absorbency.

    Drying

    Hang to dry whenever possible. If needed, tumble dry on low heat.

    Knowledge Base

    The Mini is small enough to toss in with your regular laundry or diaper laundry without affecting agitation, which makes wash day easy.

    For lightly soiled mats (new items, drool, food spills, grass, dirt, and similar everyday messes), no pre-rinse is needed. Just wipe away any solid matter and add it to your regular load.

    1. Select a regular cycle in cold or warm water (do not use hot water)
    2. Use a good detergent (we recommend Tide Original)
    3. Hang to dry when possible, or tumble dry on low and remove promptly

    For heavily soiled mats (urine, feces, blood, vomit), a pre-rinse before the main wash is important to prevent odor and staining. Do not let the mat sit soiled for more than 3 days.

    1. Wipe away any solid matter and rinse promptly after use
    2. Run a pre-rinse or quick/speed wash cycle in warm water with a small amount of detergent (use cold water for blood)
    3. Follow with a regular wash cycle and hang to dry, or tumble dry on low

    For all washes: Avoid bleach, fabric softeners, and castile or coconut-based soaps, as these reduce absorbency over time.

    For oil or cream-based stains: Pretreat with a small drop of blue Dawn dish soap, hand wash, and rinse thoroughly before putting it in the machine.

    Drying tip: Always make sure the mat is completely dry before folding or storing to avoid mold.


    Each Lifesaver Mat is made of 3 layers: waterproof PUL, absorbent microfibre, and a top layer of stay dry charcoal. Get all the details here.
    This is the mat with a thousand uses. Waterproof PUL on one side, absorbent, soft, stay dry and stain resistant charcoal on the other, we are so proud of this product. Originally designed to help with potty training, our customers use our Lifesavers around their homes in so many ways: change mat, picnic blanket, beach towel, couch protector, sensory play mat, intimacy bed blanket, etc. Find out more here.

    That's a great question! Unfortunately it is a little tricky to answer. If you evenly and steadily distributed water across the entire mat, we could probably give you an amount, but that's not really how most humans leak and therefore not how the mats get used. We do have this handy video to show you how our Lifesaver Mats absorb. This should give you an idea of how it works and if it will be a good fit for the mess you have in mind!

    Chair protector

    I’ve got ALS and use the mini mats to protect my power chair cushion from accidents or leaks. I use a purewick system when I’m in my chair and it’s super temperamental and prone to leaks. One time I didn’t know the hose had come loose and the pad held a full bladder and kept my cushion clean. They still look new even after tons of washes. And so much better on my skin than the ones I started with from another company.

    So, I got this for my grandmother as she was suffering from Alzheimer’s and UTI’s, amount other things. Cute pattern as I love to grow plants / have a garden. It was wonderful to include her bed rotation and I couldn’t be happier.

    Hey there, April! This made our day! Thank you for trusting us to be alongside your grandmother at this time. We're so glad that your Lifesaver Waterproof Mat could bring some comfort and joy to your grandmother. Thank you for sharing your story with us, we wish you and your family well! - Amanda @ Lil Helper
