We compared two indoor doormats: the DEXI 60 x 90cm Doormat and the GULLAMBO 40 x 60cm Doormat.
What we looked at
Size, backing, pile, absorbency, and price. Note the two mats are different sizes, so the price gap is not like for like.
The verdict
If you want a larger 60 x 90cm machine-washable mat with a waterproof backing, the DEXI is the pick at £27.99, with more than twice the floor area of the GULLAMBO. If you only need a small 40 x 60cm mat and would rather save £21.70, the GULLAMBO is the alternative, at £6.29.
A £27.99 60 x 90cm cut-pile polyester doormat with a waterproof TPR backing.
A £6.29 40 x 60cm rubber-backed, low-profile doormat.
