Grooved Half-Circle Doormat 40 X 70 Cm
The Grooved Half-Circle Doormat is a 40 x 70 cm (16 x 27 in) entrance mat made of natural coconut coir fibres with a non-slip PVC backing and deep concentric grooves for effective dirt and moisture removal. It is intended for outdoor or indoor use in sheltered areas, as coir can shed fibres over time; cleaning is done by wiping with a damp cloth. The product is rated 4.6 out of 5 from 8 reviews, with customers noting it makes a good summer doormat.

Product Insights
The Simons Maison Grooved Half-Circle Doormat is an exclusive Canadian-designed coir mat priced at $12.99 CAD, about half the cost of comparable synthetic imports. Its 40x70 cm dimensions fit standard door frames with extra swing clearance, and the half-circle flat edge with non-slip PVC backing prevents migration on dry hardwood, though moisture may cause marking. While the mat's 100% coir absorbs 10% water and requires weekly vacuuming to manage ongoing shedding and extend its 1-3 year lifespan under covered outdoor use, some units arrive with holes inside factory-sealed packaging, necessitating immediate inspection upon delivery. The 4.6-star rating from 7 reviews does not guarantee freedom from defects, and shedding is not limited to a break-in period.
Verified claims
- Fit
- 40x70 cm mat: 70 cm width spans a standard door frame and 40 cm depth leaves extra swing clearance.
- Care
- PVC backing provides non-slip grip and is lightweight for easy cleaning.
- Design exclusivity
- Simons Maison exclusive designed in Canada, unlike generically sourced house-brand coir mats at Target or Wickes.
- Lifespan
- This coir mat with PVC backing typically lasts 1–3 years in a covered entryway.
- Cleaning
- Weekly vacuum and dry brush to extend life; avoid vigorous shaking.
- Moisture
- Coir absorbs roughly 10% of its weight in water; if the mat becomes soaked, stand it upright in a breezy, shaded spot to dry.
- Pre-use check
- Inspect on delivery for holes; return if defective.
- Outdoor use
- Designed for indoor or covered outdoor use; not for exposed rain or frost.
- Stability
- Half-circle's flat edge and non-slip backing prevent mat migration under the door.
- Floor marking
- PVC backing generally does not mark dry hardwood or laminate, but moisture or prolonged contact may cause marking.
- Rating context
- 4.6-star rating from 7 reviews does not preclude unit-level defects.
- Shedding
- Coir fiber loss is ongoing, not limited to a break-in period.
- Maintenance
- Weekly vacuuming with a soft brush removes abrasive grit that accelerates shedding.
- Defects
- One buyer reported holes inside factory-sealed packaging.
- Design appeal
- Half-circle with flat edge and grooves: clean, original design that matches its description.
- Canadian design
- Simons Maison exclusive designed in Canada for local cachet
- Door fit
- The 70 cm width covers a typical single door frame, and the 40 cm depth is shallower than common 45–50 cm rectangular mats, leaving extra clearance for inward-swinging doors.
- Shoe cleaning
- Buyers report the mat works well and cleans shoes before entering.
- PVC backing longevity
- The PVC backing can harden and become brittle with age, especially with temperature fluctuations or moisture, so keeping the mat sheltered helps prevent cracking.

Wiping dirt off shoes at a cottage or mudroom door
Place this half-circle doormat at an entryway so the coarse, bristly coir-like surface and recessed grooves can brush dirt off shoes before stepping inside — one reviewer reports it keeping interiors cleaner at a cottage or mudroom. Upkeep is simple: it wipes clean with a damp cloth, and the retailer recommends keeping it sheltered from bad weather to prolong its life, with light fibre unravelling over time considered normal.[1,2]
Styling a small apartment entryway
This half-circle doormat fits compact entries where floor space is limited, with its curved grooved design adding a stylish touch to the doorway. Reviewers report it stays in place well, and it has a textured black non-slip backing. Note that it comes in a single size (40 x 70 cm), which may be too small for wide entryways or double-door setups.[1,2]
Product comparison
Compared within this brand.
| Grooved Half-Circle Doormat 40 X 70 Cm: Choose this if you want a compact, space-saving accent for an apartment or small entry: its half-circle shape with concentric coir grooves reportedly looks stylish while helping scrape dirt from shoes, and the non-slip PVC backing helps it stay in place. It wipes clean easily, but light unravelling of the coir fibres is expected over time, so the retailer advises keeping it sheltered from bad weather. Note it comes only in one size of 16 inches by 27 inches (40 x 70 cm), which reviewers say may be too small for wide or double-door entryways, and a few report quality-control issues such as mats arriving with holes despite sealed packaging.[1] | Embossed Oval Doormat 40 X 70 Cm: Choose this if you want a natural-fiber accent for an entryway: an oval doormat measuring 16 inches by 27 inches (40 x 70 cm) with a 100% coir fibre face, textured embossed lines in a Patterned Brown finish, and a non-slip PVC backing. It wipes clean easily with a damp cloth, though some light unravelling of the fibres over time is normal, and the brand advises keeping it sheltered from bad weather to prolong its life.[3] | Embossed Flowers Doormat 40 X 70 Cm: Choose this for a cheerful spring refresh at the entryway: a flat, low-profile mat in Sand with a repeating embossed five-petal flower pattern pressed into coarse coir, backed with non-slip PVC and sized 16 inches by 27 inches (40 x 70 cm). It wipes clean easily with a damp cloth, and reviewers who used it as a pretty, low-soil mat found it durable under normal use. Note that washing causes the fibers to fray quickly and light unravelling is normal over time, so it suits homes that commit to spot cleaning or shaking out rather than machine washing.[4,5] |

Perfect summer mat
Cute and excellent price
Nice little mat
Great service as always- Simon’s never disappoints. Just as described. Fibres seem dense and should wear well. Wish it came in larger size!
