6 Best Non Slip Shower Mats Under $40 (2026)

This is the beige edition of Gorilla Grip's patented large mat, and the colour is the point. A beige body hides soap film and minor staining far better than the clear version, so the mat looks cleaner between washes. It measures 35 by 16 in, which the listing describes as much larger than standard mats, and carries hundreds of suction cups under a pebble-textured hexagon top.

The listing describes hundreds of drainage holes that let water run toward the drain instead of sitting under the mat, and a soft, flexible, BPA-free construction. It fits most tubs and inserts but must go on a smooth, clean, non-textured, non-tiled surface, and the maker advises against newly refinished tubs and shower pans. It is also described as climate partner certified, a sustainability statement that does not bear on grip.

To get the best from it, install it on a dry floor and press from the centre outward before the water runs. Compared with the TEESHLY, which is longer, this is the more established brand with a patented cup design. Against the Homerella of the same size it states fewer exact numbers but a more recognisable name. Wash it every few weeks and air dry fully before reinstalling.

Homerella stands out for its cup count: over 250 on a 35 by 16 in mat. That density gives the mat more chances to seal across the floor and fewer loose corners that lift when a foot shifts. The listing calls the material odorless and mildew resistant, and it says the mat can be machine washed on cold.

The listing's antibacterial wording is the maker's own claim, and it does not list how many drain holes there are. If your tub is smooth, the cup density is a genuine advantage, but on a textured floor the extra cups do nothing. It needs the same clean, non-porous base as any suction mat.

Install it with the tub dry, press from the middle outward, and keep a cold-wash routine. Compared with the YINENN at 200 cups and 40 in, it is shorter but denser, and against the Gorilla Grip beige it trades the brand for the number. Rinse the mat in the tub itself each week rather than waiting for a deep clean. It is the better pick if your tub is smooth and you want the strongest evidence of grip.

For a small or narrow tub, the BEMISO is the neat answer. Its TPE and PP construction is light, the slotted panels let soapy water leave fast, and the mat dries quickly, so it is the easiest to rinse and hang each day. At 27.5 by 15.7 in it covers the standing area and leaves the rest of the floor bare.

More than 160 cups hold it to a smooth floor. That is fewer than the Homerella, but there is also less mat to hold down. It is a good fit for someone who stands in one place and wants a mat that does not turn into a chore to clean.

Place it where your feet actually land, which is usually under the shower head, and leave the far end of the tub bare. Next to the long mats it gives up coverage, and in return you get faster drying and an easier lift. Because it is light, it can be hung on a tub-side hook or towel bar to drain after each shower. That small step also keeps the slotted panels clear of trapped hair.

TEESHLY gives you 40 by 16 in of coverage, which is the longest in the lineup alongside the YINENN. The soft-touch PVC and domed pebble pattern create a surface that is gentle on feet while still adding friction.

The listing states the mat is machine washable and has drain holes, but gives no cup count, so the hold relies on a design you cannot verify. The long body takes longer to dry, which means more time for a damp underside, so hang it up fully after use.

It suits a long, smooth tub where you step in at one end. Next to the YINENN it states fewer details, and next to the Homerella it covers more floor but with less evidence of grip. If your bath routine is slow, sit on the tub edge to dry your feet before stepping onto the mat so the pebbles stay clean. A damp towel placed on the mat after use keeps it from turning slick.

The YINENN pairs a 40 by 16 in body with 200 suction cups, a stated count that makes it easy to compare. The vinyl is described as free of chemical smell, and the pebble design adds underfoot texture.

The listing does not give a drain hole count, and vinyl is less flexible than TPE, so it may sit less flush on a curved floor. On a smooth, flat floor it should hold well.

It is the long-mat pick for buyers who want a count to hold on to. Against the TEESHLY it adds the cup figure, and against the Homerella it gives more length for fewer cups. Because vinyl can stiffen with age, flex the mat gently before laying it down so it settles flat. Replace it once the cups stay curled after pressing.

The Hargiis is the one friction mat in the lineup. It is 0.4 in thick with a loofah-like foam top that feels soft, and it relies on a patterned plaid backing, not suction cups, to stay put.

That makes it the natural fallback for floors where suction will not seal, though how well it holds depends on the tub surface. The foam rinses clean and dries fast, but it can wear and hold soap over time.

Use it where the cupped mats fail, and check the grip by hand before stepping in. Next to the cupped picks it trades documented suction for softness and flexibility. Use it where the cupped mats fail, and replace it once the foam starts to crumble. Rinse it after every shower so soap does not harden in the foam. Think of it as the backup plan for awkward floors.
