Age 18-24 25-34 35-44 45-54 55-64 65 and older Gender Male Female I bought the large size about a year and a half ago for $13 or so. For the price it's OK. It does stay put and it has stayed clean and mildew free since I have taken it out of the tub after each use and hung it over the shower door to dry. What is disappointing, however, is lack of durability. I noticed recently that the suction cups were pushing through the mat and making circular cracks around the cup. I don't imagine that it will be much longer before the suction cups start coming all the way through and detaching themselves. I should explain that I am single and the mat gets about a third of the use that a family would give it. I contacted Rubbermaid via online chat and was sent a $25 gift certificate for Rubbermaid products even though the one year warranty had run out. For $13 it's a good bargain compared to the prices on other brands and is worth buying if you understand that you are likely to have to replace it every couple of years.

I had already purchased one bath mat, and when I used it I almost fell because the surface was so slippery when it got soap on it. So I was looking for something more specifically designed for the elderly. I purchased this one based on the reviews I read. I ALMOST did not purchase it due to a review from someone who said that it got red mold on it after one week and that bleach would not get it off. I was hesitant after reading that. However, I believe now this is more due to her water situation than a Rubbermaid bath mat of high quality. It has been used every day for a month and it is fine. There is no way anyone would slip while standing on this mat. The suction is extremely sturdy and the surface of the mat is such that your footing is completely stable, even with soap. The only downside is that it was supposed to be white, and it's really not; it's more of a light gray-beige color.

But it does what it was meant to do and that's what counts. Yes () No (5)  Report Yes () No (5) Verified purchaser I am very happy with my Rubbermaid bathtub mat. The size is perfect for my tub... not too large or too small. I wet the tub before pressing the mat into place, and it doesn't slide around at all. I think it is very safe. I spray the underneath side with white vinegar occasionally, rinse it off, and place the mat over the side of the tub to dry. I think that helps to keep it clean and free of mold.

The rippled and textured surface prevent slipping, and the suction cups on the bottom hold really well so you don't have to worry about the mat itself sliding around. Seems to dry fairly fast - But, as with any bath mat, make sure you remove it from the tub and hang it up after each use so mold and mildew don't start growing under it.

Moving Truck Rental Oswego IlI have been searching out a Rubbermaid one since I have always liked the quality. Used Homeschool Books Kansas CityI found what I wanted....at least I thought I did. It looks good, it sticks well...the problem is the fact that it is NOT comfortable on the feet. You can feel EVERY suction cup through the rubber, something that is not true with the previous one. I thought....ok, maybe it will soften up with use. I asked my husband and he felt the same way.

So I will continue to look for a good, comfortable bath mat. Yes () No (1)  Report Yes () No (1) I just received this bath mat today and only ordered it 3 days ago. Well I have to tell you I am 6' 5" tall and weigh 400 lbs and 62 years old pretty good shape considering the arthritis and all I do need a mat that stays put and does not slip at all on a textured shower floor. Years ago I had a couple of Rubbermaid mats with a hundred or so of the tiny suction cups on the underside of the mat and was unable to find them again until now. I can tell you that once these mats are on the shower floor no matter how much soap or any kind of slippery liquid that you may use this mat will not move. I am going to order another mat now. Keep in mind no matter how good a product performs always be careful and be safe. Thank you Walmart and Thank you Rubbermaid.

I searched high and low for a safe mat like this. Sticks to the tub. Has a grippy surface so my toddler doesn't slide around. Does what it's supposed to do. Pick it up out of the tub when you're done and it won't mold; leave it in the wet tub and it will mold. Yes (8) No (0)  Report Yes (8) No (0)It was a damp, snowy winter, and so far, it's been a damp, wet spring, which means that getting rid of mold is the number one challenge in my bathrooms. Adding to that, our water leaves lime deposits, so my spring-cleaning chores include tackling all the hard-water deposits that build up all winter long.

Conventional cleaning products designed to combat mold and hard water are full of toxic chemicals, such as harsh acids and chlorine bleach, which you don't really want to be inhaling in a steamy shower. My nontoxic cleaning tools, on the other hand, didn’t cost me much in time or effort, and all I was left with were sparkly-clean surfaces and clean-smelling air. Coping with Mold and Mildew I started by tossing the mats and fabric shower curtains in the washing machine and hanging them out on the line, where the spring sunshine emerged to do its mold-killing magic. If your curtain is a bit musty, you may want to give it a presoak for a few hours, or even overnight, in a bucket of water with a cup of white vinegar added before tossing it into the washer. Then, I tackled the grout. No matter how diligent you are at giving your bathroom its weekly once-over (and I am very not diligent), the joints where one material meets another are prone to dirt buildup and mildew. A number of natural cleaners are equal to the challenge, but the type and condition of your grout, tile, and other surfaces need to be taken into consideration when you select one so you don’t damage them.

Also, steer clear of scrubby pads if you have materials that could be scratched (my surfaces are tough and were marred long before I owned them, so I don’t sweat a little more scrubbing once in a while). A good basic cleaner to start with is baking soda dissolved in water for spraying or sponging (1/8 cup per quart of water), sprinkled dry on a damp sponge, or made into a paste with a little water for tough areas. Baking soda has been found to kill certain types of mildew, and for the types it can't kill, its mild abrasiveness allows you to scrub the stuff away. It's safe for most surfaces, but you might want to test a small area first if you have any doubts. Apply the baking soda, either in spray or paste form, leave it alone for an hour or so, and then scrub with a soft brush (a retired toothbrush is my favorite). Wipe and rinse well when finished. White vinegar or lemon juice (full strength or mixed with half water) are also good for cleaning mildew-stained grout, but they are acidic and can start to eat away at grout as well as certain hard-surface finishes, so be sure to rinse completely;

neither is a good choice for natural marble. To use, sponge on, scrub with a soft brush, and rinse. If you can’t get your grout clean with either of these cleaners, you may want to consider looking for a company that offers professional steam cleaning, which is nontoxic and very effective. Just make sure the company is clear that you don’t want toxic chemicals used. In areas where mildew is a chronic problem, you can keep it from growing by applying citrus or tee-tree oil regularly. Put 10 drops of lemon, orange, grapefruit, or tea tree oil and a few drops of dish soap into an empty quart spray bottle, add warm water almost to the top, and slosh to mix. Spray down areas that are prone to mildew once a week or so. Depending on the dissolved minerals in your water, you too may get white, gray, or even rusty stains on bathroom surfaces. If I had a magic bullet that would banish these with no effort, I’d be a millionaire, but I don't. However, with a little trial and error and even more elbow grease, you can take care of soap scum and mineral deposits as effectively with natural products as you could with the latest toxic panacea being pushed on TV (which probably isn’t nearly as effective as they want you to believe it is anyway).

As with grout, baking soda is a good basic cleaner to start with: Use it dissolved in water for spraying or sponging, sprinkled as is on a damp sponge, or as a paste for tough areas. Apply baking soda to your surface, let it sit for an hour or so, and then remove it with a soft cloth or brush. If baking soda isn’t up to your challenges, vinegar is quite effective at dissolving soap scum and water stains. Sponge it on full strength (or mixed half and half with water), wipe with a sponge or soft cloth, and then rinse well. To remove hard-water buildup from showerheads, remove the showerhead and let it soak in undiluted vinegar for a few hours while you're cleaning. Vinegar works because it is acidic, but for the same reason it can also eat into grout or damage the finish of marble, tile, and other surfaces. Check with the manufacturer for advice or test it in an inconspicuous area. Should both of those fail, a good next step is a product called Bar Keepers Friend (the dry, powdered type).
