I just bought “the Mat” and put it on my bathroom floor outside the bathtub. I took a shower on Friday, stood on it, dried myself off and went into the other room and got dressed. I went out of town. When I came back home and decided to shower on Sunday evening, I stepped on the mat to get into the bathtub and almost fell as the mat slide on my linoleum floor. I just thought I had stepped wrong as the corner edge was raised up a little bit against the door jamb. I fixed it so it was laying flat on the floor but had to go and grab my other shampoo. When I came back to the mat to step into the bath tub, it again slide and again, I almost fell. So I picked up the mat and it was still damp on the bottom from where it got wet on the earlier Friday. Plus it left the floor all wet as well. This is not acceptable in any way, shape, or form. The mat should have dried on its own. So I put it on the counter and dried it off with a towel. I put a regular bath mat on the floor after wiping up the dampness still on my floor. So I wanted you to now that this thing is a safety hazard. If I can’t stand on it and dry off and have it dry on its own--well it is not a product that should be on the market in my opinion.
I will be taking the two mats back to Costco where I purchased them and I will warn them of this issue.
It is comfortable to stand on, but if it can’t dry rapidly on its own, it should not be on the market.
