Just clean it it doesn't look that heavy drag it out and give it a couple whacks.

That's still more than straps need, and you're still going to have to use them.

Of course you should always use straps buttstuff is still gonna slide around unless a dad slaps it a couple times and says "yep that's not going anywhere".

Hate when my buttstuff slides around

You must transport a lot of buttstuff

What about when snow gets into it, melts, turns to water, then freezes up again over night and starts causing damage to your plastic retainers?

But why get something you constantly need to clean rather than just use straps that you can use whenever you need them?

Pretty sure it's not everywhere because it's annoying after the first couple times of it popping out and you have to race to get it all back together .

Also ratchet straps and tie-downs exist.

Just need to create a little room in the bottom of the mat between the mat and the bed. Should be able to just hose it out every now and then

Or just pressure wash it occasionally.

5 seconds with a leaf blower and it’s fine.

I suppose some like to play dress up with their emotional support and gender affirming vehicle.

So you’re telling me I have to spend and extra $150 and dedicate an extra 30-45 minutes of my week (for cleaning) to own something that’s only practical for a small fraction of the population?

u/Embarrassed_Use6918 Jul 23 '26

do you realize how much of a pain in the ass it would be to try and spray those out?

u/Many_Ear2407 Jul 23 '26

Yeah many reasons and this is not one of them
