Brinware Slip Resistant Silicone Placemat- Under the Sea, Blue, One Size

I can't believe these have lasted as long as they have, I think I bought these things like 3 years ago and didn't realize I hadn't left a review yet. My kids beat on these every meal, sometimes with the end of their spoons and forks, and it still hasn't torn or punctured. They're easy to wash and they don't have a weird plastic smell. I like how they grip the plates and cups so things aren't sliding around too. Great stuff here!

These mats are great, they stick very well to my wood table and help protect it from my toddlers fork which was being used to make "nice" little rows of holes in the wood. They are easily removable, but he is 2.5 and mostly beyond the stage of pulling them, up so they work for us. They are very easy to clean and dry, and they roll right up if you want to store them or take them with you. He loves them and they are great for crafts and play-doh time too. I definitely recommend these!

I purchased these placemats so my toddler would have something fun/educational to look at while waiting for her food. I love the colors, the designs, and the slight stickiness of the silicone which prevents bowls/plates from sliding around too much. However, one thing I was originally disappointed with this product was the flexibility/flimsiness—they do not stand upright at all. Because other reviews say they wash theirs in the dishwasher, I expected they would stand upright, but that's not the case. Washing by hand is a pain because there's no resistance so they end up flopping all over the sink. Then, I had the brilliant idea to wash them in the washing machine with my child's bibs. This was the golden ticket for me and changed my opinion of this product. I simply add the soiled bibs to a normal load of my child's laundry and remove the placemats before switching the rest of the clothes to the dryer. I give them an additional rinse under the faucet and let them air dry. I have done this a few times so far and the white graphics show no signs of peeling off. For some that may seem too tedious, but it's working for me and maybe others will find it helpful too.

I was not impressed when I first opened because they are slim, not very big and the pictures are very unreal. However, in a week of the mats being home I have found them very practical because 1) all dishes (even ceramic) stick well to it, and 2) they are easy to clean with a smooth very wet towel/ sponge or under the drain. Minor drawbacks: I wish they were wider (my son's mess easily spreads out) yet for now I am using two side-by-side. Also, many "other" things stick to it - anything grainy or dusty - when you don't necessarily want it to, but again, I wipe it off with a very wet towel as soon as I "can." A plus: Fruits don't stain it (scary-red cherries, for example) at all; that's great! The same might be if pasta sauce; I have not tested it.

I absolutely love these! I've been using the same green/blue set for 4 years, they've been through the dishwasher and come with us to the park, zoo, etc. since they're easy to roll up and stick in the diaper bag. Great product, highly recommend.

These are fantastic! I love that they come in a two pack. One stays at home on the dinner table, the other stays in our diaper bag so we have a clean surface for our daughter to eat on when we're out at a restaurant. I love how easily they wipe clean, and the print (super cute!) hasn't faded after several uses and cleans. They stick really well to wood and we really like using them. Our daughter has yet to peel them off the table, so that's a bonus! They roll up very small, so they're easily packable, and they are very tear resistant. Surprisingly strong for how thin they are.

These have been great placemats for our three year old and one year old. The designs on them are visually interesting to the kids and they are super easy to clean no matter what gets on them. We've had oatmeal dry on them and had no problem getting it off. The only thing to watch out for -- you have to teach your kids not to pull it up. Both of ours were very curious as to what was under the mat and thought it was a great game to pick them up at the edge and dump their food everywhere at first. Catching them in the act a couple of times and correcting them quickly fixed this though. Just be aware this is a temptation to almost every little one out there.

We got these when our old cheesy hard plastic ones started letting food and cups slip slide around the mats. These things are awesome! They lay perfectly flat, they're non-slip so no one can play air hockey with their plates and cups and they're super easy to clean. We give them a wipe with a soapy rag or paper towel, rinse under warm water and dry with a little towel. We also hang them over the chair for a spell so they get all the way dry. I understand they're dishwasher safe, haven't tried that yet but one day maybe. Overall, great product. Oh and the boys love the patterns, they spend more time finding things than fighting, so that's awesome!

Quick shipping great little mats, perfect for traveling. Only gave 4/5 as mine got a hole in it from the dishwasher after the first wash.

Great quality mats. They stick well to our glass covered wood table, clean easily and roll up into very thin rolls without flopping open or requiring an elastic. Perfect for our needs

Love these!

Excelente calidad, no se deslizan los platos, los niños los aman

These things are useless for me. My 18 month old keeps pulling it off the table and I have to hold on to it while she's using it so she doesn't pull the whole thing off!
