It was too much of an effort to keep these mats free from mold in all the nooks and crannies that it has. I was spraying it with the Clorox spray cleaner (with bleach) and hanging to dry every night, too. I had to throw them away. I just don't want my dishes to be touching the mold.Previous review (was 3 stars)We've been using the drying mats (we have 2) for 8 months now and I can tell you I am not impressed with the antimicrobial claim. I have plenty of antimicrobial items purchased within the past 3 years and they have been doing a good job standing up to that claim, especially our shower squeegee that is now over 3 years old. We are all too familiar with the previous shower squeegees getting mold on them which would have to constantly be treated for (almost daily) or it would spread the mold in the shower simply by being hung up to dry. The antimicrobial squeegee is now 3 years old and is untreated for mold to this day!With these mats, there are plenty of corners made with the horizontal surface. Your dishes sit on raised areas so that the water drains down to the horizontal surface. Where the raised area has a vertical side to meet the horizontal surface, pink mold collects in there. How do I know it's pink since my mats are black? I run a paper towel into that corner along all those corners and, unfortunately, it all comes out pink. That's what happened when I first found the pink mold.I did everything necessary to get rid of it, but it is never really gone. This maintenance I'm about to describe reminds me of the maintenance we had to do with our regular squeegee (not the antimicrobial one): Of course, I had to use bleach and I wasn't happy about that. I then ran it through the dishwasher to wash off as much bleach as possible. Now I am in constant maintenance mode spraying it with a Clorox cleaner that has bleach it in about two times a week. I take a soft bristle brush, too, and using dish washing liquid, I wash both mats at least once a week. I don't recall these mats having a maintenance instruction that required this much work.To add insult to injury, water gets underneath both mats. It's been doing this since day one. There are no cracks in the material nor has my cleaning regimen had anything to do with the water underneath. It gets slimy under there when wet and when dry, it is light brown (as seen on the counter) for some reason, but still moist. I hate to know what that is.Being that the mats are black, I realize I am never going to see the nasty growth on unless I am constantly swabbing them and that is just way too much work. I'm probably just going to toss them and go back to the way we used to manage drying the dishes which in ways is sub-par to this, but it doesn't cause the dangerous pink mold to be that close to our dishes. I really wished this was going to work. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars Customer for life! *by J***L on Reviewed in the United States on September 24, 2016* I love Mat! The cute emails were a nice touch too, made me laugh. I am about to buy my 3rd. Not to replace mine though. I still have my original, 2nd was for a gift (they loved it also) & 3rd will be for me. We use it to set wet or hot things on. To put meat on for seasoning before the BBQ, especially helpful when making ribs! I keep it on the stove when it's not in use, looks nice and gives me another flat surface to use. I have cut into mine on accident, probably not a good thing but it was definitely my fault. I will say that I use a micro fiber drying mat underneath when I'm using it for dishes. That's my own OCD tho, definitely don't NEED it, but I can't stand the thought of water between it and my granite from me dripping everywhere. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars EXCELLENT product! I've bought two of them and plan ... *by L***R on Reviewed in the United States on September 16, 2016* EXCELLENT product! I've bought two of them and plan on getting a third. I have quartz kitchen countertops and I want to keep them safe. The Tortuga silicon mat does this. It withstands heat up to 450 degrees and keeps things that may bump, scratch or otherwise damage my counters away from the surface. The large size is perfect for cookie sheets and large cooking pots. I use the mats daily. I highly recommend the mats. I must add that the customer service is also EXCELLENT. Besides being notified by Amazon, the company also keeps me in the loop about my order and delivery. They even follow up to make sure that I am satisfied with their product. Kudos to this business!!!Plenty of space on the mat for a 13X9 baking dish hot out of the oven! --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/20595195-xl-silicone-dish-drying-mat-and-counter-protector-and-stay](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/20595195-xl-silicone-dish-drying-mat-and-counter-protector-and-stay) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-06-06*
