Under Sink Mats for Kitchen Waterproof, 34 X 22 Silicone Under Sink Liner with Drain Hole, Hold Up to 2.12 Gallons Liquid, Under Sink Tray for Kitchen Bathroom Cabinets (New Grey)

I had previously gotten a couple of these in the past mostly as a It might save my butt someday. I am now singing its praises. The other night, I heard a drip noise, and when and looked, I saw that my faucet was dripping, and wouldnt stop. I was like, sigh...another thing for the weekend honey-do list. I woke up the next morning and noticed that my bathroom rug was slightly damp, and I thought that was weird. Did I over splashed when I used the sink last? So I decided it was a good time as any to mop the floor and I thought nothing of it. Later in the afternoon, I came back and noticed a small puddle in front of the sink where every else was dry. Because the puddle was small, I kept thinking it had something to do with me over splashing while washing my hands. But then I heard 2 drips, and I was like uh-oh. and I opened the sink cabinets, and the whole mat was full of water. I guess a bit of water would escape off the sides between the cabinet doors and pool itself in a small puddle right in front of the sink. I stopped the leak and wet vacd the mat dry. My heart was racing a mile a minute, cause my downstairs neighbor is very litigious. Her ex-husband (attorney) constantly gives her free legal services to keep the peace, and she has no problem taking advantage of that. Once the mat was dry, and no more drips, I removed the mat to see the damage - spotless! Wood was completely dry. I happy danced till I got the plumbers bill, but this could have been a lot worse if it wasnt for this product. Well worth the price for the peace of mind that you have a buffer to find a problem before it gets out of hand.
