Thanks

I just stick mine in the washing machine.

A damp cloth. If it’s really bad it goes in the bath and gets washed down with the shower.

I've tried a few different ways but the washingmachine seems to be the easiest and best.

i use a clothes brush for lint etc on mine does the job great.

I spray whatever cleaning product is under the sink on it and just use a cloth, comes out nice.

Thanks everyone its only a few weeks old but got a few marks on it and a couple of dog hairs, so will try the damp cloth first

Washing machine at 30c. Leave to hang dry. Come out spotless.

Washing machine seems a bit excessive.

Damp cloth does the trick for me.

Considering the speed.

washing machine on hand wash and low spin.

Only issue after few years like this the sides are flaring apart. This method is best for those mats that have edges stitch.

Mines been going in the washing machine for 3 years, still looks like new.

I soak mine in half a pint of beer for 5mins and then put in the washing machine at 30C for a short wash. Looks like new. Otherwise some antibacterial spray and a warm, damp microfibre cloth.

I have an steelseries, and I use an brash to get dust it off, but I never washed mine since the day I got it. Then again I always like to keep it clean.

un-fragrance baby wipe then a tea towel after

I put my ones in the washing machine @30c

While we can't recommend washing in the washing machine, I'm pretty sure it works well.

If the mat was to break when washing then let us know and we'd sort out a discounted one or something.

For Forum members anyway

Ive two mats so when one is washed have other to use! Razer one had long time still ok mind many cuts/nicks onit from messing about with bits on it!
But either the washing machine or soaked in large oblong bucket and knead/pummel/squeeze it so gets all the bits out as oil from skin gets into them then rinse and hang to dry for few days as even though dry there is still moisture inside then as a bit like a sponge!
Dishwasher will work also(wonder what time she is home???)

but like anything if sensible don't have issues!

Regularly give mine a good wipe down/scrub with antibacterial surface wipes, comes up nice and fresh.
Every 4-6 months, or if I spill something on it, I'll stick it in the bath tub with some warm soapy water and kneed it till its clean, rinse off the soapy water and hang to dry.
Had mine for a couple of years now with no issues, still holding together good as new.

Haven't tried it in the washing machine yet, might give it a go next time.
