(More customer reviews)I nearly bought a Fisher Price bath mat (which I believe was from the Rainforest or Healthy Planet line), but I tried it out at the store. It was a major disappointment. After a few seconds, my knees became painfully aware of the fact that the store had a concrete floor underneath the mat. This OXO mat is much thicker and more comfortable than both the FP and Safety First mats I tried at the store. I am so glad that I found this and tried it! It is a quality product and made to help my knees withstand kneeling on the mat with all of my body weight on them. This mat is thicker and therefore firmer than one of the standard gardening mats or kneelers you can buy at Lowe's or Home Depot, but it has enough give to make it comfortable. I like the fact that it folds and holds closed. It is easy to fold and stow away when company comes and I don't want it in plain view. I'm 5'10" and it is roomy enough to comfortably accomodate me. If you are super-tall, you might want to pay attention to the dimensions and consider whether or not it will work for your knee and leg length.
I am puzzled about the fact that another reviewer gave it one star and stated that it can be a safety risk for children. It might be a risk to a newborn if a newborn had the strength, coordination, and dexterity to get his arm or fingers caught in the mat as it closed; however, I cannot imagine this being a real danger to an older infant or a toddler. Plus, a responsible parent is not going to give a child a bath and leave the child unsupervised while the mat is in use. Maybe I am dense, but I can't fathom this product being a safety concern when used properly and with supervision.
