Kmart Diamond Door Mat (100 x 45cm)

I have a long entry aisle at my ground-level unit, so my floor gets quite dirty on rainy days. This mat has been a floor saver. It looks fab in its timeless elegant vintage style. It's also sturdy as the top is made of coconut coir and the back/down made of PVC (so doesn't scratch the wood flooring). As it has a rough surface, I can energetically rub my feet on it and remove all dirt and humidity from my shoes. As the background colour is a clear beige, the mat clearer areas get more noticeably dirty than the brown ones. Yet, this is not a decorative piece; its function is getting dirt out of my shoes and out of my floor. This mat is also rigid. I has to be washed by hand. My preferred way is doing that on a sunny hot day. I throw a bucket of clean water, add delicates laundry liquid and mop it energetically; then, I let it dry under the sun. If you live in an apartment, you can wash it the same way in your shower and then let it dry in your balcony.
