We recommend a heavy-duty warm cycle with recommended commercially available detergent. Line dry when you can, but if you must, tumble dry low! Avoid any fabric softeners or dryer sheets to protect your mat’s absorbency.
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!

Including packaging, the mat’s weights are as follows:

Great as a change mat

We liked this as a change mat so much that we got another one. They are soft and light, and are easy to carry around. As a change mat, using the absorbent side is great because if the little one decides to shoot something out, it won't spread around and get everything wet. We haven't gotten much use out of the waterproof side yet, maybe when the baby is more active with throwing things.

Hiya Jaye! Woohoo!! Thank you for being such a loyal customer and for taking the time to leave a 5 star review of your Lifesaver Original Mat. We love how easy it is to bring on the go too! Did you know that it fits inside one of our Zippa Zipper Wetbags!? We love hearing that your little one is enjoying the soft absorbent side and that you aren't dealing with any extra laundry if they make a lil mess! The waterproof side is great for those early food introductions and sensory play (among many other uses!) Thank you again for choosing Lil Helper! Have a great day! - Amanda @ Lil Helper

Works great!

This has been such a great help during adult time! It stays dry on the surface, and keeps the bed dry. The fleece is so soft and cozy. It’s a million times better than a towel! It washes beautifully and hasn’t developed any odors. I wish I had gotten the XL size but the original works just fine!

Hey there, Happy Lady! We are all high fiving here at Lil Helper HQ reading your review of our Lifesaver Original Mat! Many thanks for taking the time to leave such a glowing review! It sounds like it is doing exactly what we have intended for it to- be absorbent, prevent mess, bring comfort, and wash/dry easily! Our XL is on sale for Earth Month through the end of April if you are thinking to add to your Lifesaver collection :) Thank you again for choosing Lil Helper! Have a lovely day! - Amanda @ Lil Helper

Absolute game changer

I ordered this blanket (in the XL size) after having some mental blocks about messiness during intimate time with my partner, and it went absolutely above and my expectations. First of all the blanket is gorgeous and comfortable. I cannot believe how dry it stays, and clean up is a breeze as well! It is such high quality and I can feel the love that went into designing this product. It truly has given me a level of freedom and security that I didn't experience before. Thank you!

Amazing!!!

Lifesaver mat is the perfect name for this product. It truly is a lifesaver. I only wish I found out about this sooner. This product is so versatile. I do not have children, I use mine as extra menstrual protection and it has saved my mattress and couch many, many times. Highly recommend for anyone with heavy periods, anyone with children, or even pets.
