The only problem I had with this bathmat is that my 18 month old did not want to get out of the bathtub! Sticks great to the tub and I thought I would have problems because the bottom of my tub is a little rough textured.

I was very worried about getting this after reading the other reviews about the horrible smell, however I did anyway. I was pleased to find out that mine did not have a weird smell at all…just the slight “new plastic” smell which went away in a day or so. Great coverage of the tub and my son loves it!

We love this bath mat. My son has fun pointing to Elmo underwater. I would just recommend that you remove it after each use for it to dry on both side. After some use and not always removing it, I’m seeing some yellowing. Oh, mat fills about 3/4 of the length of our standard size tub.

It’s large enough for both kids to be on, it has cute pictures, stays clean, and stays stuck on the bottom of the tub very well.

I used this bath mat today for the first time. It’s not too great. The mat itself is pretty slippery, not too much traction on it. The worst thing is the horrible smell it gives off. It smells like a skunk. I know when it comes to certain plastic products, they have this certain chemical smell that goes away shortly after you remove it from the packaging. This is NOTHING like that. It smells so bad and it’s so strong. My whole bathroom smells like there is a skunk living in it.

*UPDATE: My daughter slipped on this mat. There is no traction on this mat. The little Elmos are the only pieces that are made of no-slip rubber. As you can see in the photos, the Elmos are pretty far apart, especially for baby feet. Not a good mat at all. I’d change my star rating if I could, but Amazon won’t let me.
