Do any of you bother with pedestal mats in the bathroom?

No I don’t like them and even when there was men in the house I never had them snd never noticed puddles on the floor either I must have had good aimers 🤣

Or they sat down and aimed in the right direction...

I think of them as being unsanitary. I want to see any drips so I can wipe them up.

As it is, it is not a problem I have.

For those that do... train them to wipe it up.........🙄 or try...?

(excluding those who are unable of course)

A pedestal mat serves 2 purposes - keeps your feet warm if you’re bare-footed and absorbs the splashes, from the menfolk - that’s what I think anyway 😂

But who wants to put their bare feet on a urine splashed mat?

Not everyone's OH splashes!

Horrible things 😱

We don't have any so my tootsies get chilly at 3 am!

keeps your feet warm if you’re bare-footed especially in the middle of the night!

Yes when my grandsons visit. I have never noticed any soggy mess thankfully 😅

Mine is around the base of my sink- am I doing it wrong lol?

Carpet in the bathroom 😱

I just pull the bathmat across for me, then put it back by the shower (we don’t have a bath).

I do think in the days of carpeted bathrooms and cloakrooms they served a purpose - yes, men, I’m looking at you - I’d rather boil wash a pedestal mat than have a stained carpet.
No need now though.

Well, I suppose it is better than paddling in wee.

They are to soak up urine spills from men who don't bother to aim when peeing, and piss all over the lav, seat, floor etc.

Civilised men teach their sons to aim straight, put the seat and lid back down, flush, and wash their hands.

Yes, delightful, isn’t it?
In the early stages of dementia, my FiL insisted that his neighbours had stolen his manky old pedestal mat.

In fact a sister in law had taken it away and burnt it!

I’ve never bought a pedestal mat . I’m not sure of their purpose either .
