Very happy with the quality and durability! I have some traditional triangular rubber chicks and I like them a lot better for our caravan. They are really good though and appear to be of excellent quality. I throw them on the bed all the time when my truck, on the floor etc and they are fine. I don't find that they smell bad after a few days. I took the rope and tied 2 together. It's easy to pull them out and walk on them. I was skeptical because they are cheaper than regular triangle chicks but after using them I would highly recommend them. Now I rarely use "old school" pads.
