Full disclosure: I ordered this item to create a DIY cow scratching post. And let me tell you, it works GREAT! The cows love it. Inailed it on a post with some old broom heads and it's their favorite thing. After stapling and nailing this thing to a post, I was very impressed with the quality - nothing has ripped in 6 months! And let me tell you, the cows are not gentle on it. I was so impressed that I ordered a second mat for our garage, and it catches more dirt and manure as we come up from the barn than any other mat we've had. And it's super easy to clean. Just shake it out! If it's super dirty a quick hose off will fix anything. Well done!!I ordered 3 of these mats, being somewhat familiar with the type. They came in rolled, would recommend letting them hang or lay, opposite the roll, to flatten them out. Slight smell of rubber for the first couple of days, likely due to them being plastic wrapped. Excellent material for scraping shoes off on. Easy to clean, just general cleaner and hose off, I let them dry outside before bringing them back inside.I use this mat in front of the entrance to the cat box. It works great for trapping cat litter clinging to my cat's paws, and keeping it off the floors -- and everywhere else.The mat is very durable. My cat likes to wipe his paws, and sharpen his claws on it. I didn't think it would suffer the abuse it has, but it still looks new after a good wash.I would buy again, if the mat I have ever wears out, and would happily recommend to others.I got it today,love it ,well made, look nice at my front door, thank you very muchNice mat and easy to clean.I use this as a mat for my dog’s buggy. He’s older and requires breaks during walks, also has temperature sensitivities from chemo so the buggy having shade helps. Basically, when I leave to go anywhere, so does he and his buggy. This means that I track in dirt with it. I have the mat set up right inside my front door to park it on. It does a great job of capturing the stones and dirt and I can just shake it and rinse it off, no problem. It also helps it from wheeling away. I’ve had it for quite some time now and it still looks brand new. Great product!Seems to work ok. Lays flat on ground. Looks alright.But, the spacing between the raised areas might be a bit far from each other to clean off bottoms of shoes well?I purchased one of these mats in the middle of Feb to try it out. I then purchased five more to replace every other mat in my house, they are that good.High quality rubber on all sides & the bottom that give it a good weight so that it stays in place. The top is perfect for getting dirt off shoes & keeping it on the mat until you shake it out.I wouldn't complain at all if these cost $20-$30, but at $13 - they are an absolute steal.I got this for my husband who had a stroke.He uses a wheelchair and we needed something non slipperly mat for him to safely transfer between his wheelchair and bed. So this mat is right next to his bed. It won't move on laminate floor. It's very durable. Very happy with it!Received wrong sized item - ordered 24x36, but Received 18x30. Not even close to the intended use.. Qualitywise it's ok but who makes this kinds of mistake selling own product?
