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:

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!

Lifesaver is right!

This mat is perfect for everything I cannot emphasize enough how convenient and helpful it is. My wife and I love to use it for picnics and other fun activities. The soft side is so comfortable we have even used it as just a blanket. I recently ordered the XL version for this reason, as that was earnestly the only thing I didnt ADORE about it. I love everything you guys are about and am happy to continue to support you. Excellent customer service, excellent product, if youre considering this blanket for bedroom activities or incontinence consider getting the XL!

100% recommend!

I have the 3 different sized lifesaver mats, and the wet/dry bag. I use the lifesaver mats all the time! They are wonderful for puking kids and the occasional accident. They also keep our bed dry during my husband and I's intimate time so there is no wet spot. I won't use towels anymore for sick kids since the vomit and "accidents" soak right through them. These have saved my couch during norovirus, and I am ordering more so I can have more in rotation so there's always a clean/dry one ready to replace the soiled one. I've used them outside for blankets in the grass, and just literally anything you'd use a towel/blanket for. You won't regret it, there are a million uses, like a Thneed (from the Lorax), only better!
