This mat is very good quality! When you stand on it, it feels solid. It does not have a lot of give, but I think that is what gives it the supportive feel. I believe that it will break in over time, but it is not necessary for me. The colors are great and it fits perfectly in front of my kitchen sink. Even though the base color is white, it feels like it repels they moisture that drips on it rather than absorb it like some other mats like this I have had in the past. Very happy with this purchase!
