Large Flip-Flop Doormat

Our colorful, handmade doormats keep foam-rubber wastes from sandal / flip-flop manufacturing out of landfills by transforming them into tough but lightweight doormats that excel at removing soils. Used indoors or out, the flip-flop doormat is easy to clean and has a cushiony feel that makes them great fatigue mats, too. Colors vary. Large mat: 22" x 36" x 5/8" thick; Small mat: 15" x 25" x 5/8" thick. Philippines.

Didn't satisfy Date: October 25, 2009
"I bought this mat based on the pictures on the site. What I received was a mat with no design whatever, rather than anything like the sharp designs I saw in the pictures. I'd planned to give these as Christmas gifts, but won't do so now."

"First, be sure and read reviews for small size as well. Ended up with three large size and in principle they're great. Practically, however, they're just awful! First I ordered two for the kitchen as fatigue mats as suggested, but they came with random colors, no pattern at all, unlike the photo. I ordered another hoping (and asking, for the second time) for a diamond pattern, but no go. The third went into the garage and it's holding up better, but there's a lot less traffic. Being bulky, they're such a hassle to return, but I should have right away. After one week, the edges curl up badly from tripping on them, and because it's held together with wire, it doesn't bend back flat, so you keep tripping making it worse and worse. Cooking and cleaning can be stressful enough without tripping all the time! Some of the edge pieces of flip flops have ripped off and now WE feel ripped off. Really too bad because they use recycled materials and are cushy. Otherwise, a waste of money. Into the trash they go, less than 2 weeks after buying, $150 poorer."

Not what I was expecting... Date: January 13, 2009
"I received the mat in the mail today and it definitely wasn’t the same or even similar to the one in the stock picture. The one in the stock picture is multi-colored (very nice to look at) and the one I received was mostly black with a red, white, blue diamond in the middle of the mat. I suppose if I was going to put this outside the door then it would have been okay, but I was planning to use this in the kitchen. Only buy it if you don’t mind the colors or design since you won’t know what you are getting until you open the box."

Love this Mat! Date: August 28, 2008
"The mat is not only great to look at, it works to keep dirt out of the house and the fact that it is made from leftover sandal pieces, it's a story I love to share with those who walk on it!"
