We bought some of these over a year ago and they have stayed in great condition. We cook all our meals from raw materials and have a huge garden and we can. We are on our feet sometimes 3-4 hours non stop. These are very comfortable and of good quality. I bought more of them to cover the stove and counter areas (not all done by my first purchase) and in the laundry room for spot treating (which at times takes 30-40 minutes. They really help with fatigue. I definitely recommend these.
