From Amazon. This site is the KIMODE catalogue — every button opens the mat’s listing there, and the payment, the delivery and any return happen on that side. We never see your card and never pack a box. If a purchase follows a click from here, the retailer may pay us a commission out of their own margin; your price is the same either way.
Not on a sealed, cured floor. Two things do cause marks: putting a mat down on a finish that has not fully cured (allow four weeks after refinishing hardwood), and leaving grit trapped underneath. Lift and sweep weekly and the floor underneath ages the same as the floor around it.
No. The foam core absorbs water, and a drum spin at speed delaminates it. Wipe the surface with a damp cloth and mild detergent. The hand-woven cotton mats are the ones built for the machine — cold, gentle, air dry.
The foam core sits around half an inch. Thick enough to feel underfoot for an hour of prep, thin enough that a dishwasher door and most cabinet doors clear it. If your appliance doors sit unusually low, measure before ordering the thicker runners.
The most common answer is a 17" x 47" runner along the main counter and a 17" x 28" piece at the sink — which is why that combination is listed as a set. Measure the run of floor you stand on rather than the room.
Direct sun will lighten any printed textile over a season or two; a kitchen mat in front of a south-facing glass door is the hard case. Rotating the mat end for end every few months spreads that evenly enough that you never notice a line.
Not on clean, dry tile. Slipping is almost always cleaner residue — the same film that makes tile feel slightly tacky underfoot stops the backing gripping. Rinse with plain water, dry fully, replace the mat.
Yes, and plenty of people do. It is the same construction; the only thing to check is that a rolling chair is not going to live on top of it, because castors on foam leave permanent dimples.
Everything listed here was in stock when the page was built. Availability and price both move; the button takes you to the current live listing, which is where the accurate number always lives.
