It's easy to clean up after washing, and it dries fast if you parch it in the sun. It's a little expensive, but when I try to use it, it's a very satisfying product indeed. (Female, 40s) A friendly fiber to both people and the environment. I used to use just a bleached cloth to wrestle with the sticking rice, but since I changed to a fabric made of Polypropylene, I don't have to do that anymore, and it's quite useful. The fact that Polypropylene itself is a friendly fiber to both people and the environment was also a decisive factor in purchasing it. (Female, 40s) A mattress that doesn't stick. I've been making koji for many years, but the work of removing steamed rice from bleaching takes a lot of effort. Mysteriously, this mattress doesn't stick, and it's such a benefit for me.
