    Though it’s not fun to think about, we all get dirty feet from time to time, especially when it’s hot out and open-toed shoes are back in our wardrobe. You should be washing (and drying) your feet daily — between the toes, too! — to get rid of sweat and bacteria that can cause infection and odor. But for people who have trouble bending over in the shower, washing your feet can quickly become an arduous task. Enter: a foot scrubber mat like this one by Beskar , which can do the job effectively and conveniently without forcing you to bend down.

    Available in six colors, this shower mat is lined with suction cups on the bottom, and reviewers say that the non-slip grip works as advertised. You can adhere it to the bottom or side of your shower or tub, and then squirt some body wash or scrub onto it when you’re ready to clean. The dual-bristle design, which has longer bristles for reaching the places between your toes and shorter ones for the soles of your feet, will clean and massage your feet as you move them over the mat. (Many reviewers say the bristles’ exfoliation was ticklish at first, but they quickly got used to it.)

    The mat is 12 by 12 inches, and 1.5 inches tall. When you convert the length to shoe sizes , that means it can fit up to women’s size 12 or men’s size 14 feet. It also has a loop on the top, so you can hang it on a hook to dry when you’re done using it.

    In case you need more convincing, the mat has an impressive 4.3-star average across over 14,000 reviews. Reviewers with hip or knee problems , arthritis and dry, cracked heels have all praised the scrubber mat for how clean it leaves their feet without the need to bend over. Other reviewers also love it simply because it provides a luxurious and spa-like experience that leaves their feet feeling soft . Its possible use isn’t necessarily limited to the shower, either — some happy reviewers have gotten creative by using it outdoors to clean their shoes after gardening or as a mat to stand on for relief from long periods of standing at the kitchen sink.

    Below, check out some more glowing reviews of this foot scrubber mat, or just go ahead and buy one for yourself to get the clean, sandal-ready feet you deserve.

    “Ok, so, I have the NASTIEST heels on earth on these feet. They stay dry and crispy to the point that they grab my sheets at night no matter what I do. I’ve tried those peeling foot masks, filing them daily, heavy creams, kerasal cream, etc etc. To NO AVAIL. Single handedly in about 5 days my feet are smooth like a baby and like brand new! I’m astounded. While I’m scrubbing down my body and hair in the shower, I simply rub my feet in the mat the whole time I’m showering and rinsing. That’s it! I’ve not done one other thing. Haven’t even continued using cream on them. They are so smooth it’s absolutely unbelievable. Wish I’d found this decades ago. It’s a game changer if you have terrible feet!” — Joel

    “I bought this after I had a cast removed on my foot. I thought that it could help me clean off my foot. I put some soap on the mat and rubbed my feet on all the nubs on the mat. It worked great. My casted foot felt great and looked great. It was so smooth you would never think it was trapped in a cast for eight weeks . My husband loves it too.” — Ann

    “Bought this after watching a TikTok video of things you need to buy from Amazon and here we are! 😆 hands down, it was worth the money. I toss a little body wash across it and start with one foot just rubbing my foot back and forth. It creates a lather with the body wash but I know my foot gets cleaner with that thing than just a wash cloth. It tickles, just like a pedicure but you get used to it. It also has suction cups so it doesn’t move. I can easily pick it up and toss it in another area of my shower and it sticks. If you’ve got an extra $20 lying around, give this a try!” — Megan

    “I bought this specifically for use after my shifts as a nurse. I wear compression socks that make my feet sweat and who knows what fluids sometimes spill on my shoes. Honestly my feet don’t smell great when I come home. They’re also sore.

    This product makes them feel so clean. I squirt some foaming soap on it and rub my feet into it while I do the rest of my shower. It massages them and gets between my toes.

    When I first step into it, my feet are a little ticklish, so if you are just stand on it and make little movements with your feet until they adjust.” — Sara A. Vogt

    “I prefer going barefoot, and usually have a hard time getting the bottom of my feet clean. They also build up calluses. And as I get older, I find it harder and harder to even reach the bottom of my feet in the shower, let alone scrub them. This mat solves all these problems. I get my feet clean and rub off calluses without having to bend over. I just squirt a little liquid soap on the mat and rub my feet on them. At first it was too nubby to stand on, but I just put one foot on the floor and rub the other back and forth. Now I am used to it, it feels good, like a massage. It is easy to rinse out after each use, and it adheres well so I never feel like it’s going to slip . At first I thought the little scrubbers would break off after awhile, but I’ve been using it for nearly a year with no damage to the little scrubbies .” — Mom1Sharon
