The U-shaped cut-out is a generous 16.5 cm wide and 18 cm deep, which is what lets it sit snugly around the pan instead of gaping at the sides. Water disappears into it on contact.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSize\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e50 x 50 cm (19.6 x 19.6 in)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eCut-out\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e16.5 cm wide x 18 cm deep (6.4 x 7 in)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003ePile height\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e3 cm (1 in)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSurface\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eChenille, highly absorbent\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eColour\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBlack\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eShape\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSquare with a U-shaped cut-out\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e3 cm of chenille is a lot of mat\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMost contour mats are thin, because thin is cheap and nobody expects much from the toilet corner. This one has real depth — enough that your foot sinks in, and enough yarn to take a proper amount of water rather than letting it sit on the surface. The strands are closed loops rather than cut fibres, so air moves between them and the mat dries out instead of staying cold and damp.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMeasure the cut-out, not just the mat\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe outer 50 x 50 cm matters less than the U. Measure the width of your toilet pan at floor level and the depth from the wall to the front of the base, and compare them to the 16.5 x 18 cm opening. Push the mat in until the U meets the pan and flatten the two arms — a snug fit is what makes it look tailored rather than approximate, and it is the single most common reason these get returned.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFAQ\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWill the pile flatten?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt compresses where you stand and springs back as it dries. Wash it cool with no fabric softener — softener coats chenille and makes it both flatter and less absorbent — then air dry flat and shake it out to lift the strands.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes black chenille show dust?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLess than you would think, because the surface is broken up rather than flat. What it hides brilliantly is water marks and the everyday splashes this corner collects, which is exactly why dark colours suit the spot.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBrowse more in this colour in \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/bath-mat.co.uk\/collections\/black-bath-mats\"\u003eblack bath mats\u003c\/a\u003e, or see the rest of this size in \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/bath-mat.co.uk\/collections\/small-bath-mats\"\u003esmall bath mats\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bath mat","offers":[{"title":"50x50CM","offer_id":55747580559703,"sku":"14:173#Black;183:200007743#50x50CM U-Shape","price":37.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1046\/3733\/3847\/files\/S916b7f2f1824440691db6ebd8b23145c6.webp?v=1793968742","url":"https:\/\/bath-mat.co.uk\/products\/pedestal-bath-mat-in-black-chenille","provider":"Bath mat","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
