Why is it a good deal? 💰

At just over $10 per mat, this is the lowest price we've ever seen them, so if your weary dogs could use a comfy landing pad, we suggest adding to your cart, stat — as of now, the deal on the black mats is already 60% claimed!

Why do I need this? 🤔

Thousands of Amazon shoppers say this nonskid, fatigue-fighting kitchen mat is the one to get. Or, to be precise, the two to get! You'll get the larger 17.3-by-47-incher plus a companion that's 29 inches long. The mats are 0.40 inches thick. (Or, if you're willing to spend a few more bucks, you can opt for an even squishier 0.47-inch model.) Either way, your body will thank you.

The sleek, geometric design is available in a neutral light gray with three choices of an accent color — blue, black or gray, though black is currently on sale for the lowest price. Great in a craft room, the garage, in the laundry room, at a standing desk or a register, these mats can give you relief in any spot where you spend long hours on your feet.

What reviewers say 💬

With nearly 13,000 five-star ratings, Mattitude Anti-Fatigue Kitchen Mats are an Amazon hit.

Pros 👍

One satisfied shopper who ordered the "super comfortable" mat duo shared: "I was surprised [by] the thickness of it. I’ve had many mats before, and most would lose their bounce/comfiness within a matter of days. This has made my cooking and cleaning routines at night a lot better and has taken some of the soreness out of my lower back from standing on tile. It’s also been nice having ... a safe spot [for a 1-year-old] to sit and play on in the kitchen while I’m doing the dishes."

"Great buy," proclaimed another. "I barely got these rugs and am already in love! The padding is great and a fabulous material. Easy to clean. Looks great. Definitely worth it! Perfect thickness to relieve pain standing in front of the sink and stove!"

"I am so in love with these mats!" added a final fan. "Arthritis makes standing in front of the sink and stove painful some days. These mats have taken the pressure off since they are padded. My feet are in heaven."

Cons 👎

Some customers felt like the mats needed to get a little more of a grip.

According to this reviewer, "A win for looks and comfort, but they slide all over the floor. While it might not become a tripping hazard for most, people who need the mats to grip and stay in place should look at other options."

"Affordable and are comfortable to stand on," said this shopper. "But they move if you look at them funny. I’m constantly pushing them back where they belong." (Keep scrolling for a simple solve!)

You can also get this version with dark gray trim for a few bucks more.

And to keep your feet's new favorite friend in place:

These sticky solutions are triangle-shaped to fit your mat's corners, and they couldn't be easier to use. All you do is remove the double-sided adhesive covers, stick them onto your mat and then press them to the floor so they'll really keep everything in place. Their main purpose might be preventing your mat from sliding around, but they'll also keep those curl-prone corners nice and flat.

"No more slipping!" exclaimed a content convert. "This product works really well to secure area rugs throughout my home. Not only do they keep the rugs from slipping out from under you, they also keep them where they belong and allow my Roomba to do its job more effectively. Great product!"
