Review on INC Absorbent Reversible Microfiber Kitchen Kitchen & Dining by Terrance Singletary

I bought this rug because I thought I could use the minimalist style in my kitchen and save some space without having a large kitchen shelf. There are definitely some pros and cons to using this mat. The obvious pluses are that it saves space and looks good, but there are also a few major downsides. The main downside is that this mat smells really bad after a few uses. Water dripping onto the mat causes bacteria and it quickly becomes dirty, while a conventional dryer dries it out beforehand. Another downside is that it's just too difficult to stack a meaningful amount of dishes on this thing. Without grooves, you end up playing Tetris with your dishes and constantly have to deal with them falling over everywhere.
