Customer Reviews

An update....I like this style of placemat. They looked great with the tablecloth & napkins. They faded the first wash. THAT was my first review. My update is a couple more were washed and they are fine. My husband washed the first ones and who knows what he did! But the mats look fine. I do recommend getting them out of the dryer and straightened out so wrinkles don't set in.5Cheap!I guess when you don't buy quality brands you can't expect quality.Do not buy these!This is what they look like out of the dryer but I have other place matts that come out of the dryer and do not need to be ironed.1NOT Easy to clean.The only reason why I gave them two stars was because I like the color and they look good in my kitchen/dining room. Machine washable Eh? I don't think so. So I washed them and they shrank a GOOOD amount so I hand/arm stretched them and hung dry, they looked better but holy crap.. I less than hardly describe these as easy to clean. Pretty disappointed actually but as I said they look good so I will keep 'em...2Very sturdy, perfect for messy kidsWe absolutely love these. We're a family of 6 with 4 messy kids, and we use these every day for every meal. They are very sturdy. Nice and thick, not flimsy at all. They get washed every couple of days, and so far no unraveling. They did shrink a little after the initial wash, but they're 100% cotton. Cotton will ALWAYS shrink in the wash. There's nothing you can do about that. And anyone that gets mad about it is just ignorant, and should buy polyester place mats instead because polyester does not shrink. I put these in the washer with cold water, and lay them flat on the table to dry so I dont have to iron them. But even in cold water, do not wash these with anything else, unless you dont mind the color bleed to the rest of your laundry. They bleed like crazy. Another thing, is these placemats may not be strictly for special occasions or parties if thats what you're buying them for, they are not perfectly rectangle. Some are better than others, some look like they were made at a bit of an angle. For my family, we think it adds a bit of character, and don't mind it at all. In fact we're saving up for another set in a different color for some variety during holidays, but if you're picky about presentation, they may not be for you.5They Shrink, but Otherwise Nicer Than I Expected.I hesitated to buy these DII Cotton Ribbed Placemats due to mixed reviews and the uneven quality of inexpensive Indian textiles. But I was desperate for dark brown placemats that are washable and thick enough to protect my table from heat. These are casual placemats of passable quality, but they look good and get the job done. The Dark Brown color goes well with my dark walnut-stained table. The placemats are 13 inches wide and 19.5 inches in length to start. They are about 3mm thick. Instructions say to machine wash in cold water and tumble dry on low. I washed in cold water and hung to dry. The placemats shrank in length by about 1.25 inches. They don't shrink in width. They are now 13 x 18.25 inches in size.I didn't expect perfection from casual, inexpensive placemats. One of the loops on the long edge of one placemat was frayed when I got it. I trimmed it a bit with scissors so it looked better. The loops acquire a little fuzz when laundered, though. So far, it has not been enough to bother me. The placemats don't wrinkle badly when washed and line-dried, but they do get some wrinkles. Whether you need to iron them will depend on how sensitive you are to wrinkles. I used spot spray when I laundered them, and it had no ill effect on the dye. The Dark Brown is a nice, rich chocolate. The thread matches the fabric well. The color selection is impressive. These placemats have been a good value for the cost; I m pleased with the purchase. Made in India.4Nice dark green color placemats!I like the dark green color of these placemats and the simplicity of them. However, they are made in India, are all cotton and seem large for a placemat until you wash them. They shrink about 1-2 inches in width after washing them in the washing machine and putting them in the dryer so they are more like a normal size placemat. I took them out of the dryer while they were still damp and them ironed them dry to flatten them out.4The perfect color, that I couldn t find locally.I m happy with them. They are the same kind that you can buy at the local kitchen, department store, Fred Meyer, etc places.. but I had never been able to get this color until now.5Looks great, easy to clean (needs ironing)These look great and compliment almost any dish set/place setting. I like the material and is pretty easy to clean. If you have pets, especially naughty kittens like we do, they may jump on the table at night and these will attract their fur. They are easy to clean but need ironing almost right away.4Dye Bleeds and Placemat ShrinksThank you for the other reviews that warned me about the dye bleeding. I bought these Wine placemats because I had been unable to fine a dark red washable placemat for daily use. I have had my old ones for several years that also bleed. So when I washed this New Bright Wine colored placemats, I added to my wash: SALT in the wash cycle and put VINEGAR in the rinse cycle. For me, I was doing a small load, Started with very cold water (I live in the north and it is winter, so the water is very cold). Added 1/4 cup of salt (add 1/2 salt is doing a normal or large load). A long with these Wine placemats, I added only dark red clothes (just incase the placemats did bleed). I added 1/2 cup on vinegar to the rinse cycle dispense (1 cup of vinegar if you are doing a normal or large load). I looked in the tub during the wash and rinse cycle and did NOT see any red dye. I dried the placemats on low for a short time and removed them while they were only half way dry (I don't have a space to let all wet items lay out to dry). The color is till the actual same Bright Wine color as the Unwashed placemats. But the washed placemats did shrink 2 inches in length. (This is OK with me because the placemats are large to start with.) The washed placemats did dry perfectly flat when thought I did lay them out flat to finish drying. I don't know if the Salt/Vinegar method permanently/semi-permanently set the dye, or I will have to do this each time. But either way, I have a lot of dark wine and black laundry that in the future I will always wash these placemats with if they do bleed and I don't do the Salt/Vinegar method that next time. I have always loved dark red ribbed placemats for daily use, so it is very possible I will be getting more of these in the future only because they are so hard to find, (I have been looking for years) getting more in Wine and also in Black. Somethings you love are worth the trouble. The label on my new placemats said they were made in India. I have had trouble in the past with other fabric from India bleeding. So it you get this placemats, you know that special care will be needed and they will never look like they did the day you received them. If you have another person in your household that also does the house laundry, they did to know these facts. Thank you again to the other reviews that gave me a heads up on this product.3DII Cardinal Red Rib Placemat, set of 6I bought two sets for the holidays (Christmas, Valentines and Patriotic holidays) Basic nice cotton placemats. I use kitchen wipes to clean quick spills but if you must you can wash in the washing machine in cold cycle but don't dry them in the dryer as they will shrink. Lay flat or hang on a line. A quick hit w/ a steam iron after they have dried and they will look new again. I have a set in blue and I learned how to take care of them with that set...shrunk some by drying in the dryer.5
