The fabric has an almost velour texture, not what I was expecting for a drying mat. But the colors are vibrantVery absorbent and well made, however, the “Buffalo plaid” design isn’t very accurate. It doesn’t look like a traditional Buffalo plaid, which is a turn offA lot bigger than I expected. Works just like a drying mat. The image isn't all pixelated or awkwardly printed like I would have thought, so that's nice.This was exactly what I needed. The pattern is exactly as the picture. Colors are beautiful. Very large size. Has held up really well. Would recommend!Used as a cute, absorbent mat under the dog water bowl, and it worked perfectly! Machine washable and comes out great!The kitchen looks upbeat and new with these items without spending a lot of money.Perfect for what it’s intended for. No complaints!This bad boy looks awesome I’m happy I bought it
