JVLFirth Carpet Rubber Backed Entrance Door Mat, Charcoal, 40 x 70 cm

We needed a mat that was around the same width as the door, and unobtrusive to look at. We needed it to stay put on a porcelain tile surface. And we needed it to collect as much dirt and wet as possible in the one step taken over it when entering the house!It's small, neat, and fits perfectly behind the front door. It isn't substantially thick but has a good raised and patterned pile. The pile is relatively soft, and doesn't discolour when wet or show the dirt. A knobbled rubber underside keeps the mat in place, and although it does still walk a little, I doubt you could get better than that for our type of tiled floor. I'm sure it would stay completely in place on a less smooth surface. And it does take most of the wet and almost all the dirt off our footwear, not to mention the dogs paws!We have a very similar looking but much larger mat at our back door which, despite its size, does a less efficient job on ours and the dogs feet, and also it "walks" all over the floor needing repositioning several times a day. Might as well have bought a small mat there too, as it's size hasn't made it any more efficient than this mat!!!Good purchase.

Delivered flat and so far has stayed that way. Too early to comment on durability, but certainly good value.

I like the colour, which is a good match for my carpet. It does not move around, and works well as a doormat to wipe mud from your shoes.

A feature of a door Matt that I never thought I would have to consider is how much my cat likes to sleep on it.One of my cats has polyneuropathy and, as a result of this, can’t get very high as his legs are very week. He values comfortable places to sleep that are low to the ground. Once I put the mat down, he gave it a little inspection and then plonked himself down with a satisfied purr. I have been fussing him since.I have no idea how it functions as a mat, it seems like it would work fine, but the cat loves it so 20/10 would recommend to cats.

I read the reviews and zoomed in on the picture and decided anything was better looking that the carpet offcut at my back door. So i bit the bullet and purchased what i expected to be my nans door mat. I was surprised how not ugly it was, and we've actually been asked where we purchased it by quite a few people, surprised? me too! It's extremely hard wearing, and when my diva dog got over the fact we had taken away the shaggy pile carpet and finally started putting his paws on it instead of jumping over it, even his filthy paws are no test for it ( he even carries his dinner to it and eats off it! my dog approves! lol) With all it's use it still shows no sign of ware, definitely recommend this mat

Had to have a ramp built for our old dog and needed something so she didn't slide down it. I already had 2 of these in my conservatory so decided to buy more as I knew they would be perfect for our ramp. We screwed them down and they are easy cleaned, dry quick when it rains and the dog does not slip. Very pleased.

Love this little may. I have another one which I paid a lot of money for but this is every bit as good and better value. I have it between the kitchen into the dining room. It does move from time to time but so does my other one but this is nothing to do with the mat itself as it's on carpet and this happens. It vaccums well.
