Do you use this instead of a regular door mat?

Yes. I use one as a doormat to collect dirt from pet and people feet. I liked it so much I bought one for stepping out of the shower onto. It is nice and soft.

I have 2 mats. One for my dogs water and food. The other I use by our back door where she goes in and out. It's great for soaking up tracked in snow and ice from both the dog and from us. I can't say enough how pleased I am with the mats. I have washed them too and they come out like new and haven't fallen apart like other door mats I have used

You could use both. I don't wipe my feet on the dogs mat. I have a mat right outside the door to do that.This mat has been a life saver during the wet days. I don't work for the company.

I use it as an indoor mat to catch any dirt/water on my dog's feet. It can't be used outside since it is almost like a throw blanket. Very soft. Both my dogs love to lay on it. I liked it so much I purchased another one for upstairs! However, it is too small to catch all the water on their feet when it rains, so it that regard it's not very effective.

We actually have a runner from the door about 8 feet long. The dog mat is on top of it close to the door to catch the snow, mud, water. We also have a towel that we wipe their paws with because it is so bad here in the winter and with 4 dogs, we could never keep up with it if we didn't do that. The dog mat has helped cut down on a lot of it though.

You would not necessarily need a mat unless you plan on sweating a lot then you may want that on the mat and not the carpet:)

I've done it both ways and really a nice thick mat is soooooo much nicer on your joints and less slippery than carpet. I'm older (55) so being nice to my joints makes sense. Mine is about 3/4 inch thick black puzzle mat that I got here on Amazon. I bought two sets and put them together to make a larger area. Well worth the $. The thin yoga mats really only help with the slipping part.

Yes, it is a simmer mat... I use it for most of my cooking..especially things that stick easily...

Yes; more precisely, I use a padded mat under the Rugbuddy, then on top I have another carpet, over the feet of some tables/sofas rest (pressing on the Rugbuddy). So far so good, after 3 weeks of usage. The instructions specify to avoid large area objects lying on top of the rug - presumably to avoid heat build-up.

If it was me, no I would not get this mat for what you have in mind. Also keep in mind also that although it says Heavy Duty....It really is not. You might begin tripping on the edges.

Yes. Actually, the mat didn't work for me. It was too slippery and I was able to return it for a full refund.

I am sure hosing them off would suffice for your intended use. We have 3 mats and use them inside at door areas. We are very satisfied with their performance .

Just use it as you would a doormat to keep dirty feet from tracking in mud and sand, etc. The only thing about it that I don't like is that it is pretty lightweight so it gets kicked around fairly easily. But it does do the job. I have it in the garage where my dogs come through from the backyard and it does soak up the moisture from their feet.

If you are putting this on a tough surface (cement, woods, etc.) then you might want something to thicken the mat. If you are going on carpet (which I do), you will be okay. I like that it isn't clunky.

Yes! That's what I did and it works great. These mats come as a set of two but it's been six months and I haven't needed to use the second one at all because the first one is still like new.

I use it with my microfiber mat. I would contact the seller directly about the question.

It's not a yoga mat and would slip on the floor. You could use it in place of the blanket or towel you take to yoga.

I don't use a mat with it and I have hardwood floors -- i haven't had any issues or problems. I think you'll love this machine. I've had no issues or complaints.

Yes. Also, if you have laminate or hardwood, this mat will ruin your flooring.

Mat is nicely bound with nylon like fabric tape for a finished look. It is about 6mm or about 1/4" thick at the corners only. All other parts of it is thinner. Hope your door clears the corners it because it is a nice mat. Had the corners not cleared my doors, I would have been inclined to pound and flatten the 4 corners with a hammer. Do NOT know if this would have helped.

You could, but it will look trimmed. The edges of the mat are nicely beveled, so any trimming would be obvious, I believe. I do like the mat, and helps a lot with comfort in the kitchen. I bought two more of them!
