About this product
This Famibay U-Shape Toilet Mat offers a practical solution for keeping your bathroom floor dry and tidy. Constructed from high quality fluffy microfiber fabric, this mat is designed to be both comfortable underfoot and effective at absorbing spills around your toilet. The reinforced seams ensure durability, while the soft material provides a soothing feel against bare feet.
The mat's unique design features a 50x50cm size with a deep pile of 16 centimetres, fitting neatly around pedestal toilets up to 25 centimetres wide. Made with TPR at the base, it offers excellent grip and prevents slipping on hard floors, enhancing safety in your bathroom. The microfiber material is also water resistant and easy to clean – simply vacuum regularly or machine wash with cold water and mild detergent.
This stylish grey mat complements a variety of bathroom décor styles thanks to its simple design and rich colour. It’s ideal for homeowners and renters looking for an affordable and functional addition to their bathroom space, particularly those with smaller toilet basins.
Please note that this U-shape cut-out is designed to fit around the base of a pedestal toilet; it may be smaller than a full bath mat. Ensure the bottom of the rug is dry and clean before use to maximise its anti-slip effect.

FAQ
What is this toilet mat best suited for?
This U-shaped toilet mat is ideal for providing comfort and preventing slips around the base of a pedestal or smaller-sized toilet. Its non-slip TPR backing makes it suitable for use in bathrooms where maintaining stability is important.
How big is the mat, and will it fit my toilet?
The mat measures 50cm x 50cm (deep 16cm, top width 25cm) making it well-suited for fitting around toilets with a width less than 25cm. It's designed as a smaller pedestal mat rather than a full bath rug.
What is the mat made of?
The mat is constructed from high-quality microfiber fabric, combined with a TPR backing for enhanced grip. The microfiber pile is soft and comfortable to touch, while the TPR provides excellent slip resistance.
Can I machine wash this bathroom rug?
Yes, you can machine wash this toilet mat using cold water and mild detergent – avoid chlorine or bleach. It’s designed for easy care and will maintain its appearance after washing if done correctly.
How absorbent is the microfiber material?
The thick plush microfiber fabric utilizes an advanced technology to quickly absorb water, helping to keep your bathroom floor dry and clean. The high pile height contributes significantly to its capacity to lock in moisture.
Is this mat suitable for use outdoors?
This mat is designed specifically for indoor bathroom use due to the TPR backing being sensitive to outdoor conditions. It’s best suited for providing a safe and absorbent surface within your bathroom environment.
How does this compare to other similar mats in terms of price?
At approximately £11.99, this Famibay mat offers good value for its features, including the microfiber construction, non-slip backing, and machine washable design – generally offering better quality than cheaper alternatives.
Are there any specific cleaning instructions I should follow?
To maintain the appearance of your mat, vacuum regularly. For deeper cleaning, machine wash on a cold cycle with mild detergent, ensuring it's dried flat to prevent deformation and preserve the microfiber pile’s texture.
Does the non-slip backing require any special attention before use?
To ensure optimal slip resistance, please make sure the bottom of the rug is dry and clean before placing it on your bathroom floor. This will maximize the effectiveness of the TPR material and prevent shifting.
What safety notes should I be aware of when using this mat?
While designed for safe daily use, always ensure the area around the toilet mat is kept clear to avoid tripping hazards. The non-slip backing offers enhanced grip but isn’t a substitute for careful footing.
