  1. Before washing, make sure any solid matter is removed from your product. For items with heavy soiling that may stain or develop odors, rinse under cold running water until the water runs clear before storing for wash day.
  2. For a deep clean, start with a pre-wash on a short cycle using warm water (up to 140°F / 60°C) and the recommended amount of detergent, such as Tide Original to Line 1. Follow with a heavy-duty, longest-cycle wash in warm or cold water, again using the appropriate detergent amount. To ensure proper agitation, add other items to create a full load.
  3. For everyday or lighter messes or items already pre-rinsed, a regular cycle in cold or warm water (up to 140°F / 60°C) with the normal amount of detergent is sufficient.
  4. Whenever possible, hang to dry. If you’re in a rush, you can tumble dry on low.

Before washing, remove any solids from your product. For heavily soiled items that may stain or develop odors, rinse under cold running water until clear before storing. For a deep clean, start with a pre-wash on a short warm cycle (up to 140°F / 60°C) using the recommended amount of detergent, then follow with a heavy-duty wash on the longest cycle in warm or cold water, adding other items to create a full load for proper agitation. For everyday or lightly soiled items, a regular cycle in cold or warm water with the usual amount of detergent is sufficient. Hang to dry whenever possible, or tumble dry on low if needed.
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.

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!

Perfect for newborn

I have two minis (as well as an original and XL) and they have been perfect so far for after baths and diaper-free time. I don’t have to worry about her peeing after her bath (been there, done that, had to wash my shirt), and we can take our time drying and putting on lotion without worry or rushing back into a diaper. She can also do naked/diaper-less tummy time with no worries, which is also great. As she gets bigger, I have the larger size as well. Love this purchase and recommended to my cousin who got one for the same purpose, too!

Hi there, Sarah! We are tickled pink to read that your Lifesaver Waterproof Mat Mini has been perfect for your newborn. We designed it specifically with little leaky moments in mind, like after-bath and diaper-free time. It's a double win when you have less laundry to do too (we have totally been there for the 'post bath pee on the shirt' situation). Thank you for recommending it to your cousin as well. We hope your Lifesaver continues to make your life easier. We hope that you have a lovely day! - Amanda @ Lil Helper

Saved the day and my sheets

Unfortunately im a gal with a heavy flow and needed to step up my game from a towel, which wasn’t even working. I decided to give the lifesaver mat a whirl and it turned out great, didn’t bleed through and ruin my sheets. I’ll be using this every month going forward!

The Lifesavers are truly a game changer in a nighttime menstrual 'potential leakage' situation; we are thrilled to hear that yours is working well for you! You can sleep soundly knowing that your Lifesaver will catch any leaks, keeping you and your sheets dry all night. We wish you many comfy rest-filled nights ahead! - Amanda @ Lil Helper

Just the right size for smaller jobs

The Lifesaver Waterproof Mat Mini is just perfect for smaller things that you want to make sure stay dry. I use it to keep my bed from getting wet from my water bottle or an ice pack. I also use it if I am going to eat something in bed to keep my bed clean. There are lots of uses and the fact that you can put it in the washing machine is awesome!

Hey Mary-Anne!! Thank you kindly for your 5 star review of your Lifesaver Mini Mat! We love hearing how folks use these mighty little mats in their daily routines; using it to keep dry from the condensation of a water bottle or clean from crumbs in bed are two great ideas! If you're ever looking for more ideas, definitely check out our FB group 'Lil Helper Lounge' where our customers share their favorite uses for our products. My personal favorite for the mini mat is using it on top of a pillow when going to bed with wet hair! We hope that you have a wonderful week! - Amanda @ Lil Helper

Amazing!

After using the lifesaver mat I absolutely had to order a smaller one for my brother and sister-in-law now that they are expecting a little one! Also order a crib sheet for them, which feels so amazingly soft that!! 10/10 would recommend!

Hey Meryem!! Thank you kindly for your 5 star review of your Mini Lifesaver Mat. We are overjoyed that you are sharing the gift of Lil Helper with your family. We hope that they love their Lifesaver Mini Mat and Sleepsaver Crib Sheet! Have a great weekend!! - Amanda @ Lil Helper
