Carpet In Bathroom Reddit

Bath mats can go in the washing machine. Installed carpet, not so much. When you clean the bathroom, throw the rugs in the wash, and have nice fluffy clean rugs anywhere you might slip.

Welcome to Reddit, Become a Redditor Why did people think putting carpeting in a bathroom was a great idea? (self.AskOldPeople) submitted 4 months ago by YinzaJagoff. Here's why you should rip out any carpet in the bathroom ASAP. 2 months later I returned home from Christmas vacation to find that my entire bathroom had flooded into the kitchen area nearby (also carpet).

So they had to replace the carpet in the rooms that desperately needed it. A woman who was shocked to find a carpeted floor in her grandmother's house has sparked a larger debate about hygiene on Reddit. The woman shared a photo on Reddit of her hubby's grandmother's bathroom, which was completely carpeted, and questioned whether it was at all hygienic.

She was especially concerned because she explained that it was particularly hard to keep the water from the shower from getting everywhere. These days, most people have come to their senses regarding the carpet in the bathroom situation. On a recent Reddit thread, one user asked: People of Reddit with carpet in their bathrooms, why? No one had anything good to say about this.

There was one user who admitted that "It's comfy," but they still blamed their home's previous owners for the wall. My parents' house (built in the 90s) has a carpeted master bathroom. However, the toilet is in a tiny attached room with no carpet and there is a little tiled area immediately adjacent to the bathtub and shower.

Carpets work well in living rooms and bedrooms, but seeing them in a bathroom is unusual. And, it turns out, quite upsetting for Reddit users. Some people think carpet in bathrooms creates a cozy feel.

However, it raises hygiene concerns because it holds moisture, which can cause mold and bad smells.
