Secure Mat Non-Slip Bath Mat vs Mainstays Oval Bubble Bath Tub Mat

Buy the Mainstays Oval Bubble mat if you want a plain, cheap-to-own clear vinyl tub mat with suction cups and a soft bubble texture. Buy the Secure Mat if you want a larger fabric-style mat that drains water through instead of trapping it under suction cups. Owners rate the Secure Mat higher (4.7 from 2,320 ratings vs 4.3 from 232), but its listing copy makes big claims about Microban and loofah fabric that are hard to verify, and the stated dimensions conflict. The Mainstays is the safer bet on honesty and simplicity; the Secure Mat is the better pick on size and drainage if the claims hold up.

• Choose the Secure Mat if you want a bigger mat that lets water drain through and you are willing to accept unverified antibacterial claims.
• Choose the Mainstays Oval Bubble mat if you want a simple clear vinyl tub mat with suction cups that you can machine wash.
