Dr. Doormat

I’m all for hygiene, but this idea seems a little half baked. I mean, it’s a doormat. It’s job is to be tread upon and scuffed. The idea that it’s supposed to
effectively destroy invading microorganisms on contact seems like a tall order even for a product who’s antimicrobial chemistry has been accepted and registered with the EPA, EU and other regulatory agencies for this specific application. Yeah, and I believe the idiots on TV who tell me that one single little pill will allow me to eat whatever I want and still lose weight (without exercising, no less).

Dr. Doormat

Are we supposed to roll around on the thing before entering the house? If not, what about the other umpteen-billion microbes that saw the doormat coming and made a break for the cuff in our trousers?

$59 ea, plus shipping? Sorry, I’ll pass.

  1. Comments are still slightly borked for the time being. I can now get all the comment text, but any paragraph formatting is lost. Please comment as normal, and I'll keep working to get things straightened out.
  1. I completely agree that it sounds fishy. Your hands are probably dirtier. Maybe it could be sold as a combo with a hand sanitizer dispenser that you can mount by the doorbell!
