I’ve used a towel style bath mat for decades, I think it’s the most hygenic. It goes on the floor to shower, then gets hung to dry between showers.
I lay floors and hadn’t seen a “permanent” bath mat in years but ran into one today. It was that typical shag rug style, bright pink. This was a clean house but it was strange to me, I didn’t think anyone used those anymore.
Yeah we towel off in the shower.
We have a wooden slat type mat thing. Inevitably a few drips on the floor but not a puddle.
It got mouldy once, I put it outside in the sun for a few days.
