It is not recommended to put a Mellow Mat in the washing machine. The Mellow Mat is designed with delicate materials and filling that may not withstand the agitation and spin cycles of a washing machine. To clean your Mellow Mat, it is best to spot clean it using a mild detergent and water. Gently blot any spills or stains with a soft cloth or sponge, taking care not to saturate the mat. Allow the mat to air dry completely before using it again. Regular maintenance and spot cleaning will help keep your Mellow Mat fresh and clean without the need for machine washing.
