I used to use cheap bath mats from discount stores, but my wife decided it was time to upgrade. We ended up with this bath mat, and I am beyond ecstatic. I have been missing out on stepping out of the shower and onto a cloud for years! Whilst only one inch thick, the Crocodile bath math feels so much thicker. I have great traction stepping out of the shower, and feel a sense of joy when it cushions my foot. 
No more cheap bath mats for me! Some items are worth an investment, and this bathmat is one of those items!
