The mat is for the price more than okay. Unfortunately smelled our mat in the first 3-5 weeks after such a mixture of chemicals, mold, wood, etc., that we initially they assumed, any fungus could be made wide in the bathroom. Also much airing and washing off the mat did not help. After this "ordeal" (it is bearable) of several weeks, the smell has evaporated from the wood, however, and since then we are very happy with the mat.
