Are these bath mats safe to use ,and are they slippery?

they are just cloth they have no rubber backing I have a tiled bathroom floor and six kids and so far nobody has slipped which surprised me since there is no non slip backing so whatever blend of material they use keeps the mat stable.

I don't find that they are slippery. They are thick and heavy weight. I use them at the entrace/exit of my walk in shower so suck up any extra moisture on the floor. I would think that any rug or mat of the floor can potentially become a trip hazard but which is worse slippery wet floor or potential trip hazard in a bath mat. We love the 2 bath mats we have.

I have never had an issue with them slipping after getting out of the shower. However, they do not have anything specially adhering them to the floor.

The quality was a pleasant surprise. Better than what I was able to find in stores. I gave them as gifts. I know both recipients use them 24/7 in their bathrooms with no problems. (as below~~these are the same as any other towel bathmat)

I think they're better, but your milage may vary. The surface of them is pebbled and sort of rough, so if your foot is right on one, you're not likely to slip, versus bathmats that often do not stick properly to the tub, and slip right out from under you. (Also, bath mats are more likely to get moldy than these will.) Like other people have mentioned, you're going to want to get at least three packs for a full size tub, because there's only five to a pack, and the lack of coverage between can be /really/ slippery, if you step there without expecting it.

I got them to replace a supposedly non-slip mat. The mat would slip if I did not get all the little suction cups down tight. Since that meant leaning over the edge of the tub to press it down, and sometimes losing my balance in the process, I decided on these little guys. They are not quite as rough as the mat was, but they are rough enough that I don't slip on them.

No it's not slippery. The rug is kind of "woven" so there's a texture to it. Very pretty colors. I was very happy with the rug.

no, they do not have any non-slip mechanism on the bottom. I have tile floors and do not have any problem with slipping.

The material that the mat is made of is high quality. I have never had a problem with slipping.

Yes, they are safe. I have hardwood floors as well and the feet have a rubber type cover on them.

I own 2 of these, one for each bathroom. They both have 9 skid feet on the bottom of them. I have had no problem with them sliding at all.

To me they work okay, I'm sure they work better with the "sticky" mats but compared to not having a towel or using a regular bath towel is like night and day. I perspire quite a bit in class and always had trouble keeping my feet planted regardless of what mat I used. The Yogitoes mat towel has been by far the best solution. Like everyone says dampen the towel a little bit for the best results.

I would say they're a little more slick than a full mat. I've also had problems that some came off. I bought 3 different sets. My granddaughter Loves them, but she can still slip between the decals

No, I think if they got even a little wet they'd be slippery. And walking on them probably would crack them after some time. They are made for wire shelving.

You shouldn't have a problem with the mats being slick. For a workshop they should be fine.

We use it in our walk in shower. it is not slippery at all. It feels very nice under your feet and is much better than standing on a cold slippery tile floor. it is sealed so water does not build any moisture. we lift it every so often and let is stand against the wall so it dries out completely. we have no complaints. it makes our shower feel like we are in a spa.

They are very sticky. Just as long as there not in the shower, you should be ok.

I've had them in our tub for about two months and I've had no issues with mold or mildew. They're easy to clean and stay put, but can be removed easily if needed. They only thing I don't like is they can still be a bit slippery for little ones. I ended up getting the frogs too, and it helped prevent slipping. Hope this helps.

They are not too slick; I have Hard wood floors and they can slide around- they don't have traction or anything like that. They work fine for us though.

Yes they are great mats, if they get really wet they may become slippery, but not just from sweat.
