Product Information
Full details
The Gifts Direct 2 U Coir Quote Door Mat is perfect for parents and homeowners looking to add a humorous touch to their entryway while maintaining a clean home. Its primary benefit is the combination of highly absorbent natural coir fibers and a non-slip backing, which effectively traps dirt and moisture before it tracks indoors. However, prospective buyers should note that natural coir can shed during the initial weeks of use, which is a standard characteristic of the material.

FAQs
Is this mat safe for outdoor use?
Yes, it is designed for both indoor and outdoor use, though we recommend placing it under a covered porch to protect it from extreme weather.
Can I put this in the washing machine?
No, this mat is made of natural fibers and should never be machine washed. Simply shake or brush it clean.
Does it work on slippery tile floors?
The PVC backing is designed to provide grip on most surfaces, including tile, keeping the mat securely in place.
What are the dimensions of the mat?
The mat measures 40 x 60 cm.
Is the material eco-friendly?
Yes, coir is a natural fiber derived from coconut husks, making it a sustainable and biodegradable choice.
Troubleshooting
The mat is shedding fibers.
Some shedding is normal with natural coir products. It will decrease over time as the loose fibers are shed during the initial breaking-in period.
The mat is sliding on the floor.
Ensure the floor surface is clean and free of dust or grit before placing the mat, as debris underneath can prevent the PVC backing from gripping properly.
Dirt is getting stuck deep in the bristles.
Use a stiff brush to scrub the fibers in a cross-hatch pattern to loosen stubborn particles, then shake the mat vigorously.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setting up your mat is simple: place it on a flat, dry surface at your entrance. The PVC backing is compatible with tile, wood, concrete, and laminate flooring.
To keep the mat looking its best:
- Routine Cleaning: Weekly, pick up the mat and give it a firm shake outside to release trapped dirt.
- Deep Cleaning: For stubborn mud or debris, use a stiff-bristled brush to clear the fibers.
- Avoid Moisture: While durable, natural coir should not be submerged in water. If it becomes soaked, hang it up in a well-ventilated area until completely dry to prevent odors or mold.
