Living in Vermont where the three seasons are Snow Season, Mud Season and Rain Season floor mats are of no little consequence. I searched around and found floors mats costing $90 and above that promised to do everything but change my car's oil. Then I stumbled onto this brand. I researched the brand, read the reviews on Amazon and found reviews online to make sure that this wasn't a waste of $20.

Now that I have them in place in my Subaru, I could not be any more happier! They stay in place thanks to the pegs, they offer great salt, mud and clumps-of-ice resistance and at all times and in all conditions these mats provide protection for my car's interior while provided a rubbery surface that provides more than enough grip without sliding or getting in the way of my shifting gears.

Let me put it this way: you cannot afford not to buy these mats! they are at the right price, fit all the applications that I know of and they are sure to last forever without bugging you with sliding around.

I don't know what these mats are made of but they should not be allowed to be used in a closed space such as a car. The have a horrible smell. They smell like burned rubber. After a week of driving around with the windows rolled down hoping that whatever they are off-gassing goes away, I have resorted to scrubbing them with soap and a stiff brush. Even after a vigorous scrub, they still smell. I will either return them to amazon or throw them away. I just hope that what ever they are off-gassing it not a carcinogen.

WARNING: The smell of these mats may make you nauseous and will likely cause a headache.

These mats fit great and are heavy enough so that they dont move around... but did smell for about a week or two.

These winter car mats work great. They stay put and are very heavy duty. They are a great price and, in my opinion, I can't tell the difference between these and the expensive winter mats. They fit my car great (2007 Saturn Aura - a mid sized sedan) but seem easy to cut to fit other spaces.

These mats exceeded my expectations, and would be a good buy for anyone on a budget.

Pros:
+The price is very affordable compared to what you'd pay in stores (where you usually have to buy the two front and two rear mats separately) or from the dealer (who may charge over $100 for stock mats!).
+They seem pretty well-made...they're thin, but not floppy.
+The treads are just long and sharp enough to prevent sliding.
+They have lots of ridges and channels to trap water.
+They can be cut, if necessary, to fit most cars (I didn't have to cut anything for my 2004 Civic).
+They're easy to hose off if debris gets trapped.
+I only noticed a faint rubber smell, not the overwhelming odor others have reported. Opening the windows for a few drives will probably help dissipate the odor.
+They have a more "premium" look than the cheap mats that come with some cars.

Cons:
-The material is easily scuffed and cut, so the mats won't keep that look with heavy use.
-Rubber is more slippery than cloth, and the center sections are smooth, so your foot may slip if you're getting into the car with wet shoes.

I cant get the smell out of my car. The first time we put them in it was hot so when we opened the door we about fell over. So I decided to air them out and wash them with some soap for a day. Ok, put them back in, still smell like burnt rubber, they work fine, how could they not? But the smell is overwhelming. I have washed them three times, still stink.

These mats fit decently in my jeep cherokee and trap in enough dirt/snow. They put off a smell that just won't go away, if I have my foot vents on in the jeep the smell will aggravate my eyes, have set them out side for a week and washed them off.
I can't recommend this product only because of the smell

The only reason I ordered these mats was because of all of the positive feedback on them, so I thought I should leave my thoughts as well for other future buyers. These mats are great, fit my Ford Escape perfectly and trap all the snow/dirt/water exactly how I expected. I still can't believe how reasonably priced they are compared to other similar items. I am very satisifed with this purchase.

Pretty happy with the floor mats. They could be a little more wide to fit my 2010 Prius. Color matches the grey interior well. A little rubber smell (not much more than the new car smell), but it's mostly gone away now. These mats look fairly indestructable. Don't waste your money on $200 car mats from Toyota.

I read the reviews and was aware of the smell. These mats have been sitting outside for 2 weeks on my back porch, snowed upon, snow melted upon and snowed upon again. Basically, they have been washed a few times.

They still stink.

I put them in my car (2002 Frontier) today because I was sick of them being on the porch. Work well, don't move at all but they still smell.

Buy them for a cheap alternative but be prepared for the oil/plastic odor.
