Teak Bath Mat?

Our master bath is almost done and we are picking out accessories. We'd love to have a teak bath mat. The question is, do they work well? What happens to the floor underneath the mat? I assume that when you step on the mat, some of the water may go through the cracks to the floor so I'm concerned that will be an issue. Also, where do you buy a teak bath mat? I saw one at Brookstone but would love other options.

I love the way they look but have never had one. Saw them at TJMaxx and/or Marshalls.

We use these. We have used them in the past when the bathroom floor has a drain. In our last condo, we had a heated floor but no drain and that worked well too. The water dried quickly.

Water will pool underneath, but I prefer that to a soggy gross bathmat! My DH can't keep them reasonable looking.
