Floor mats can add style and function to many different areas of your home. If you've recently moved into a new home, you may wish to shop for various floor mats to use throughout the residence. One popular type to consider is an anti-fatigue floor mat. It's different from many other mats because it's thick and cushioned. The goal of this mat is to provide comfort to your feet when you're standing. It can be a good idea to buy multiple anti-fatigue floor mats, as there are several places throughout your home in which they can be handy. Here are three places to use this type of mat.

Kitchen

Many people use anti-fatigue mats in the kitchen, as this is a part of the home in which a lot of standing occurs. When you think about how you use your kitchen, you can likely think of a few places where you stand a lot. Common examples are in front of the stove when you're cooking and in front of the sink when you're doing dishes. Don't be afraid to buy a pair of anti-fatigue mats that you can place in each of these locations to provide comfort during the countless hours that you stand in the kitchen throughout the year.

Home Office

An anti-fatigue mat can also be a good addition to your home office. Even though you spend the majority of your time in this space sitting down, this type of mat can still be handy. You might want it beneath your desk, where it will provide comfortable cushioning for your feet as you sit. Alternatively, think about placing it next to a window. When you have a business-related phone call, you can stand on the mat and look out the window. Doing so gets you standing to break the monotony of sitting, but allows you to do so in comfort.

Workshop

If you have a workshop in your basement or garage, this can be another good space to use one or more anti-fatigue mats. Even though you might sit on a stool for certain projects, you'll often find yourself standing as you work. A mat in front of the workbench or in front of a piece of equipment such as a bandsaw can offer a comfortable place to stand for prolonged periods. Even if you wear shoes in the workshop, the mat will provide a pleasant layer of cushioning.
