"Whether you live in a dorm or an apartment with roommates, sharing a bathroom is no easy feat. Shower shoes and a caddy for your shampoo, conditioner, and other toiletries are often a must, regardless of whether you have a communal bathroom for your entire floor or you're just cohabitating with multiple people. (Nobody wants to accidentally scrub themselves clean with their roommate's loofah.)"
"By putting it right outside your door, or next to your closet, you can immediately place your wet shoes and caddy onto the mat before stepping inside of your room. In her comments, Nicole specifies that unlike a normal towel, or a thicker bath mat, a dish drying mat will absorb the liquid from your shoes better and dries faster."
"One commenter shares that this hack is great for avoiding wood stains - something she dealt with when she was at school. Others offered alternative options, including a boot tray or stone drying mat. Some of these might cost a bit more than a dish mat, but they'll serve the same purpose: keeping your space dry and free of water marks or a musty carpet."
Place a dish-drying mat outside a dorm or apartment room to serve as a storage hub for wet shower shoes and caddies. The mat absorbs liquid more effectively and dries faster than a normal towel or thicker bath mat. The mat can be machine washed with a normal load when it becomes dirty. Using a dish-drying mat prevents water stains and musty carpets on room floors. Alternative options include a boot tray or a stone drying mat; these alternatives may cost more but achieve the same result of keeping the space dry and free of water marks.
