Gorilla Grip Original Chenille Absorbent Reviews Summary

Durability and Quality

Pros:

• "The quality of materials used speaks volumes about the attention to detail in its design."
• "Very soft and comfy, absorbent, durable. I haven't had any issues with it moving around."
• "It looks and feels like it will last a long time. I’ve washed, hung to dry twice and it looks the same as the day it arrived."
• "I've washed it a few times already and it's held up very well."

Cons:

• "After 1 wash the rubber backing just comes right off in clumps. If they could survive the wash they’d be 5 star."
• "After about 14 washes, the backing on one of my rugs is completely destroyed."
• "This rug ripped after one wash, very telling how it won't hold up well over time."
• "We've had this rug for less than 2 months and have washed it 4 times. The grippy side is now all torn up."

Slip Resistance

Pros:

• "I ordered a larger size rug to make sure it wouldn’t slip. I’m not sure about the smaller ones but this one stays put!"
• "They are extremely soft and absorbent too. And what I love most about them is that they don’t slip around."
• "The rugs arrived and they are very much a non-slip rug."
• "My husband loves how soft, absorbent, and non-slipping these rugs are in the bathroom!"

Cons:

• "I like it just fine except that it slides around quite easily."
• "They definitely don’t last as long, aren’t made as well at all. Do not hold up even with a single old lady."
• "I've had many chenille rugs, most are thick and luxurious, this one is so thin you can see through the fibers to the backing."
• "These rugs are horrible! Very thin, not very absorbent, and they do not stick to the tile. They slide all over the floor!"

Comfort and Feel

Pros:

• "It’s very comfy to step on and dries fast."
• "The rug itself is soft and the color is as described in the pictures."
• "Just what I needed in a bathroom rug. Soft, easy to clean, perfect color for the new bathroom."
• "I've had many chenille rugs, most are thick and luxurious."

Cons:

• "Rug was described as thick, soft & absorbent chenille with rubber backing. Nothing could be further from the truth."
• "Very thin. You can’t fluff it up upon arrival as someone suggested."
• "Needed a smaller sized bath mat to replace one that had gotten worn out. Was pleased this seller offered multiple sizes."
• "It's flat to the floor, and barely feels like I'm standing on anything at all. Not at all 'plush' or soft."

Washability

Pros:

• "Arrived quickly and packaged well. It is just as they pictured it and described it. I washed it and tumbled it dry on low heat and it came out beautifully."
• "Bought two of these to lay over my dogs' sleeping mats. However, they are fine for the quality and use and they wash and dry well."
• "These bath mats are really soft and plush. So far I have not washed the bath mats but have confidence they will hold up well if directions are followed."
• "I liked the mat when it first arrived. Was a bit smaller than I expected but that was my own fault. However, I just sent it through the wash for the first time. The binding is now fraying and coming apart. Washed as instructed."

Cons:

• "I loved this when it first arrived. It's very soft and was a perfect fit for my bathroom, but when I washed it the backing shredded in the washer."
• "I have similar rugs in my master bathroom. Spent HOURS looking for kitchen rugs that one, did not come in an ugly color or pattern, two that came in sizes I needed and three actually came with a backing!"
• "The rug itself is great, looks good, soft, easy to clean, but it does not stay in one position. It moves when you step out of the shower, my dogs have played on the rug and it moves with ease."
• "The description says you can throw this rug right in the washer and not worry about the backing. Well the rug had a funny smell when it arrived that after two days I could not take anymore and decided to throw it in the washer."
