This 'effective and safe' Amazon bath mat helps prevent falls in the shower — and it's 43% off right now

Yahoo3 days ago
It only takes a quick second to fall and injure yourself, which is why it's essential to prevent unnecessary slips. According to HealthLink BC, thousands of older adults fall and hurt themselves every year. The organization recommends installing non-skid mats inside your shower or tub to help prevent unexpected injuries.
The Gorilla Grip Patented Bath Mat is currently 43 per cent off on Amazon Canada, slashing its price down to $23. It has more than 86,000 ratings and shoppers say it's "effective and safe." If you're interested, keep scrolling to see more about the deal and what customers have to say about the product.
Gorilla Grip Patented Bath Mat
This mat helps prevent slips in the shower and has a 4.5-star rating on Amazon and more than 86,000 reviews.
The details
This textured, plastic bath mat has hundreds of suction cups that adhere to the bottom of your tub and shower to keep it firmly in place. It also has dozens of drainage holes that easily allow water to flow under the mat, helping to prevent stagnant water from sitting on the mat and in your tub.
The mat itself is 35 x 16 inches, and it comes in 20 different colour options, including transparent and opaque choices.
If it's starting to look a little dirty, all you need to do is throw it in your washing machine and then let it air dry.
What reviewers are saying
⭐ 4.5/5 stars
🛍️ 86,000+ reviews
🏅"This bath mat is fantastic. It grips the tub securely to avoid slipping."
Gorilla Grip Patented Bath Mat
$23 $40 at Amazon
Someone called the product the "best shower mat ever" and said they'd repurchase it if needed. Another said it's "incredibly effective" and shared it has a "cushion-like feeling."
Other shoppers also said it's "comfy on the feet" and also comfortable to sit on, noting they "feel much safer" when dealing with the slippery surfaces.
However, some users say it could use "a little more padding," while others say the size is awkward for their particular shower or tub — all things to keep in mind before purchasing.
The verdict
With more than 86,000 reviews, shoppers say this Amazon's Choice bath mat is comfortable and effective.
Most importantly, it makes them feel safer in the shower and helps prevent shower- and bath-related injuries. However, be sure to take down the measurements of your tub or shower before ordering.

Pura Scents recalling more than 850,000 diffusers as magnet issue may cause ingestion hazard

Pura Scents is recalling more than 850,000 diffusers because some magnets may detach and cause a possible ingestion hazard to children. The company is recalling about 851,400 Pura 4 Smart Home Fragrance Diffusers with detachable covers. It said an additional 1,100 were sold in Canada. Pura Scents said that the magnets on the inside cover of the product can detach, posing an ingestion hazard to children. When high-powered magnets are swallowed, the ingested magnets can attract each other, or other metal objects, and become lodged in the digestive system. This can result in perforations, twisting or blockage of the intestines, infection, blood poisoning and death. The company has received three reports of magnets detaching from the cover. No injuries have been reported. The diffusers were sold at Target, Scheels and other stores nationwide from August 2023 through May 2025 for about $50. They were also sold online through Pura's website, as well as online at Amazon, Target and Scheels. Pura Scents is offering a free replacement cover. Consumers are advised to immediately dispose of the existing detachable cover and to keep the diffusers out of the reach of children and pets. To receive the free replacement cover, individuals may contact Pura Scents at 855-394-5292 from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. MT Monday through Friday. The company can also be emailed at [email protected]. Consumers may also visit the company's website and click on 'Recall' at the bottom of the page for more information.

And, guess what? It's on sale right now — so your eyes (and your wallet) can finally catch a break. Advertisement Let's get into it. This miracle-in-a-tube is packed with ingredients that sound like they belong in a luxury spa: caffeine (for that I-swear-I-got-eight-hours look), retinol (hello, fine line fixer), hyaluronic acid (plump it up), niacinamide (goodbye, dark circles), and peptides (for extra firmness, yes please). Basically, it's a green juice for your under-eyes, but make it glam. Amazon Now picture this: you pop the elixir in the fridge overnight. Morning rolls around, you groggily grab it, swipe that cooling metal roller under each eye, and bam! It's like your face hit the snooze button in the best way possible. This new launch from the makers of some of the best under-eye patches around doesn't just look fancy; it feels expensive. But, plot twist: it's currently marked down on Amazon for less than $10. Let's talk packaging: sleek, travel-friendly and blessedly mess-free. No sticky patches sliding down your face while you try to sip your coffee. Just a cute, golden roller ball that fits in your bag, your desk drawer or your car's cup holder if you're extra like that. Bonus points if you film a GRWM TikTok while using it (this baby loves the camera). Pro tip? Use it under your makeup for smoother concealer, or reapply mid-afternoon when your face starts to scream 'help me' at your 3 p.m. Zoom meeting. It's like a caffeine hit… but for your face. (Your coworkers may even start asking what eye cream you use. Stay humble.) So if your eyes need a vacation but your PTO is tapped out, treat them to the grace & stella De-Puffing Eye Elixir while it's still on sale.

Or an ultra-affordable E.l.f. color corrector that comes in a ton of shades to help counteract different types of discoloration, like redness and dark spots.

Lay a pad on an unwanted blemish, stomp, toss the pad, and admire your pee-free carpet. It also works for non-pet stains like ink, soda, coffee, and review: "Our poor older pup started having some incontinence issues and had several accidents in the house. I was really frustrated until I found these. They work amazingly well. They're small, so if the area was larger I had to use two or three, but they pulled up stains and saved the house from being smelly. I even used one on an older stain (that I'm pretty sure wasn't pet related) and it came up after leaving it on for about 24 hours. I make sure to keep a supply of these in the house at all times now." —MCGet a pack of 20 from Amazon for $27.48. A lightweight gel cream from Nivea with powerful Q10 that helps plump, firm, and moisturize skin in as little as two weeks with consistent use. One reviewer found success with this when expensive neck creams from department stores and Sephora fell flat. Or a Medix retinol body lotion because if retinol works so well for your face, it's gotta do wonders for the rest of your body too.

Wasting time scrubbing will be a thing of the past. And the future? Sparkly clean items as far as the eye can see. A deep-conditioning hair mask promising smoother, shinier, and stronger hair, even if you're fighting against bleached, dry, or damaged locks. It can even handle Florida levels of humidity! Or Mise En Scene Perfect Hair Serum, a K-beauty favorite that promises intense hydration and heat protection up to 450 degrees. With the help of a blend of oils (Moroccan argan, olive, jojoba, coconut, etc.), it can help repair damaged hair and reduce frizz, even in hot, humid weather. It's so effective, reviewers compare it to the $46 Gisou version. A crack weeder tool if your home looks like it's trying out to star in the next season of The Last of Us.

It's also wayyy cheaper than the $69 Colorescience version. A Tibet Almond scratch remover stick that you can apply like ChapStick for your furniture. The colorless balm can help hide light scratches, watermarks, and water stains from wood, bamboo, glass, and more. Just open the can, remove the wrapper, and start rubbing the stick on unsightly marks. Miss Mouth's Messy Eater Stain Treater Spray renowned in the parenting community thanks to its uncanny ability to erase stains from most fabrics in record time, all without harsh ingredients like chlorine, sulfates, or perfumes.

This spray is the middle ground and helps safely remove wax, soil, and handling residue. Promising review: "This stuff is great and I have ordered it several times. In the past, I just rinsed fruit or vegetables, but I was at the grocery store recently and saw a very cute kid touching all the fruit. He also had a runny nose and I just thought, 'better remember to really wash the fruit when I get home.' The great thing about Veggie Wash is you can feel the wax film wash off of certain fruit. It really does a great job of cleaning and doesn't leave any odd smell or taste. As I said, I've bought this before and make sure my kitchen always has a spray bottle nearby." —Me in SoCalGet three spray bottles from Amazon for $25.86. Ogx Argan Oil of Morocco Curl-Defining Cream for curls so bouncy you'll be jumping for joy (and to show them off). The argan oil-boosted formula moisturizes and tames frizz while adding a level of volume and shine you'd normally expect from a much higher price point.

The lightweight, color-adapting formula is designed to blend seamlessly — check the drastic difference in the review photo!

It comes with five spray tips to tackle all sorts of hardcore cleaning tasks. A roll of scar tape, aka silicone sheets that mimic the skin's barrier, locking in moisture and preventing the excessive healing that could lead to scarring. Bonus: Some reviewers have used the tape as a short-term measure to reduce the appearance of fine lines — it temporarily smoothes the skin by keeping it taut overnight. A roll of 10M wood grain tape perfect for frameless mirrors that could use a little more panache. The waterproof adhesive is easy to apply and does a convincing impression of wood grain. When you're ready for a change, the tape peels off easily. A container of oatmeal paw butter that'll soothe and relieve your dog's cracked, dry paws. Its eco-friendly formula is pH-balanced so it's safe for pets, even if licked or swallowed. *seriously considers licking it myself to see if it really tastes like oatmeal* Promising review: "This stuff smells so good! It smoothed my dog's paw pads the next day. It felt so soft! This is a miracle I love this product and it's a great price! You get a good amount of product. Thank you so much.

The carnauba wax and beeswax enhance and protect your wood from drying out, so you can keep your great-grandmother's rocking chair in tip-top shape with just a few swipes. A cruelty-free Essence Lash Princess lengthening mascara that's lightweight, won't transfer, doesn't smudge, and lasts all day — oh and makes your eyelashes look like tall, beautiful skyscrapers. Why Essence only charges $5 for such an S-tier mascara is beyond me, but we're all grateful.
