A chenille microfiber rug with almost an inch of pile that the listing calls ultra absorbent and quick drying, on a textured rubber backing. - **A soft microfiber mat:** OLANLY Microfiber Bath Rug, 30 x 20 Inch. A 100% microfiber rug with nearly an inch of plush pile that the listing calls ultra-absorbent and quick-drying, on a TP rubber backing. - **A cushioned memory foam mat:** Yimobra Memory Foam Bath Mat, 31.5 x 20 Inch. A memory foam mat with a coral velvet top and a deep foam core that the listing says traps water fast, on a diamond-tread PVC backing. - **A thin mat for humid bathrooms:** MontVoo Thin Quick-Dry Bath Mat. A thin faux suede mat with a rubber backing that the title says is quick-drying and absorbent and thin enough to fit under a door. Our top pick is the **[Gorilla Grip Chenille Bath Rug](https://twelvetabs.com/reviews/best-quick-dry-bath-mat/#pick-1)**, a thick chenille mat that the listing calls ultra absorbent and quick drying. We read 124 Amazon search cards for "quick dry bath mat" over two results pages, set aside sponsored cards and anything that is not a quick-drying or absorbent bath mat, and compared the pages of 10 mats. The [OLANLY Microfiber Bath Rug](https://twelvetabs.com/reviews/best-quick-dry-bath-mat/#pick-2) is the soft microfiber one, the [Yimobra Memory Foam Bath Mat](https://twelvetabs.com/reviews/best-quick-dry-bath-mat/#pick-3) is the cushioned one, and the [MontVoo Thin Bath Mat](https://twelvetabs.com/reviews/best-quick-dry-bath-mat/#pick-4) is the thin one. Wirecutter's lead pick, the IKEA Toftbo, is on Amazon only as a third-party listing with a used offer, so it is in the notes below and not in the table. ## How to choose a quick dry bath mat For this guide, a quick dry bath mat is a mat that its listing sells as quick-drying or absorbent, in fabric or in diatomaceous earth stone. Mats that sit in the tub, door mats and kitchen mats were left out. **Material.** The Spruce compared 29 mats and says cotton and memory foam mats tend to be the softest and most absorbent, while stone mats dry almost instantly. Apartment Therapy says chenille absorbs quickly and can go in the washer and dryer, and that memory foam contours to the foot. The Strategist says that if your bathroom stays humid, a quick-drying mat is best, and that stone and bamboo dry even faster than linen. **Plush or thin.** The Spruce says plush mats offer more cushioning underfoot, while thinner styles typically dry faster and are easier to maintain. Southern Living says its Gorilla Grip chenille pick absorbs water and stays in place, though it takes a bit longer to dry. **Stone.** The Strategist says stone mats suit people who do not mind giving up some coziness for ease of care, and that they feel cooler and smoother than fabric. The Spruce says they suit people who dry off before stepping out, to limit puddles. Southern Living says its stone pick is cleaned by spot-cleaning or light sanding. **Backing.** The Spruce recommends a non-slip backing whatever the material. The table shows each pick's grip as its listing gives it: rubber, PVC or a separate pad. ## Our picks in detail ### 1. Gorilla Grip Chenille Bath Rug, 24 x 17 Inch: best for a thick chenille rug **Why it made the list** - The listing says the pile is almost an inch thick and ultra absorbent, and that the rug dries quickly. - It sits on a textured rubber backing that the listing says is not PVC or hot glue, and it can be machine washed and dried. - Southern Living and Apartment Therapy each name a chenille mat from Gorilla Grip, though whether theirs is this exact listing is an inference. **Drawbacks** - Southern Living says its Gorilla Grip pick takes a bit longer to dry. - The Spruce says stone mats dry almost instantly, which a thick chenille mat does not match. **Watch for this:** Amazon shows this [Gorilla Grip Chenille Mat](https://twelvetabs.com/reviews/best-quick-dry-bath-mat/#pick-1) in three sizes under cards that share one review total. The page we read was the 24 x 17 inch size, so check the size before you order. **Skip it if** you want the fastest-drying mat, since chenille is not it. ### 2. OLANLY Microfiber Bath Rug, 30 x 20 Inch: best for a soft microfiber mat **Why it made the list** - The listing says 100% microfiber with nearly an inch of plush pile, ultra-absorbent and quick-drying. - It says the fabric is OEKO-TEX certified and the TP rubber backing is made without PVC or hot glue. - The care line says to wash cold, then tumble dry low or hang to dry. **Drawbacks** - The Spruce says thinner mats dry faster, and this one has nearly an inch of pile. - The page we read was the 30 x 20 inch size, so check the size menu. **Watch for this:** The same OLANLY microfiber rug is listed twice, once as a sponsored card, with one review total. It is one product. OLANLY also sells a chenille rug with its own total, which we left out as a second OLANLY. **Skip it if** you want a mat that dries in seconds or a firmer feel underfoot. ### 3. Yimobra Memory Foam Bath Mat, 31.5 x 20 Inch: best for a cushioned memory foam mat **Why it made the list** - The listing says a coral velvet top sits over a deep memory foam core that traps water. - Southern Living names a memory foam mat from Yimobra, and The Spruce says memory foam mats tend to be among the softest and most absorbent. - The listing says a diamond-tread PVC backing keeps it in place and that it holds up through 100+ washes. **Drawbacks** - The Spruce says plush mats cushion more while thinner styles dry faster, and this is a thick mat. - The 5X softer line is the seller's own comparison, which a listing cannot back up. **Watch for this:** The page we read also showed a used offer. The table shows the new offer, which is what the buy box carried. Make sure the buy box on your page says new. **Skip it if** you want a thin mat that dries fast or a backing that is not PVC. ### 4. MontVoo Thin Quick-Dry Bath Mat: best for a thin mat for humid bathrooms **Why it made the list** - The title says it is thin, with a rubber backing, quick-drying and absorbent, and thin enough to fit under a door. - The listing says the faux suede surface dries quickly and has none of the fibers that chenille drops. - The Spruce says thinner styles typically dry faster, and The Strategist says to choose a quick-drying mat in a humid bathroom. **Drawbacks** - The Spruce says plush mats cushion more, and this one is thin. - The listing calls it a soft version of the diatomaceous earth bath mat, but it is a fabric mat, not stone. **Watch for this:** Amazon shows this [MontVoo Thin Bath Mat](https://twelvetabs.com/reviews/best-quick-dry-bath-mat/#pick-4) in three sizes under cards that share one review total. **Skip it if** you want a plush mat to stand on. ## What we left out, and why We read 124 search cards, found 96 different organic listings and read the pages of 10 mats, plus one for Wirecutter's lead pick. Wirecutter's page lists seven mats and shows no "Top pick" label; the IKEA Toftbo comes first. The Amazon listing we found for it is a third-party listing with a very small review total of its own and a used offer, not IKEA's, so it is not in the table and not a pick. None of our four is one of Wirecutter's seven. - **Yimobra Bathroom Rugs, Chenille.** A chenille rug from the brand of pick 3, of the same type as pick 1. - **OLANLY Bathroom Rugs, Chenille.** A second OLANLY and a chenille rug of the same type as pick 1. - **Smiry Bathroom Rugs, Chenille.** Another chenille rug of pick 1's type, on a PVC backing per its listing. - **Memory Foam Bath Mat 30 x 20.** A memory foam mat of the same type as pick 3. - **ZIKIBL and AWW stone mats.** We read both and picked no stone mat this time. ## Questions people ask ### What is the quickest-drying type of bath mat? The Spruce says stone mats dry almost instantly, and The Strategist says stone and bamboo dry even faster than linen. Fabric mats such as the [Gorilla Grip Chenille Mat](https://twelvetabs.com/reviews/best-quick-dry-bath-mat/#pick-1) dry more slowly, and Southern Living notes that its Gorilla Grip pick takes a bit longer. ### Does a thinner bath mat dry faster? The Spruce says thinner styles typically dry faster and are easier to maintain, while plush mats cushion more. The [MontVoo Thin Bath Mat](https://twelvetabs.com/reviews/best-quick-dry-bath-mat/#pick-4) is the thin pick, and the [Yimobra Memory Foam Mat](https://twelvetabs.com/reviews/best-quick-dry-bath-mat/#pick-3) is the cushioned one. ### How do you keep a bath mat from slipping? Choose a mat with a non-slip backing, as The Spruce advises.

AI compared them, set aside sponsored cards and anything that is not a quick-drying or absorbent bath mat, read the pages of 10 mats and chose 4. AI wrote this guide from that research.
