Signature Fitness Puzzle Exercise Mat with EVA Foam Interlocking Tiles for MMA, Exercise, Gymnastics and Home Gym Protective Flooring, Multiple Colors, Multiple Sizes

We recently transformed our basement into a play area for the kids. Concrete is cold and uninviting so we got these mats for the floor. I saw some in Home Depot but they were more expensive and not to mention a lot thinner. My wife told me to check out Amazon instead and that’s where I came across these. You get more bang for your buck and they’re thicker.We got several packs in blue and it definitely livens things up. It’s very easy to set up, you just fit all the pieces together. There were a few corners that had to be trimmed but that wasn’t a big deal at all. We got the entire floor done in less than 30 minutes.All in all, a very good product. It does get dirty though and since our son likes sitting and playing on the floor, we make an effort to clean the mats regularly. We usually start by vacuuming the area, then we use a cleaner. We have a  mop with a microfiber pad  and that works great at accumulating all the gunk. The head swivels too so we can easily clean the corners and edges. It depends on our schedule but we usually mop it with cleaner every 2-3 days. Sometimes, if there’s just a small mess we’ll use plain water.Pros:1) The foam mats don’t have any noticeable smell even when you take it out of the packaging. It was something that we were worried about at first but now it seems like that was unnecessary.2) You can trim the mats easily with a pair of scissors. That’s what we did near the door since it needed a gap in order to close. You can probably also use a utility knife or something similar…the foam material isn’t that hard to cut through at all.3) I kind of mentioned this earlier but these mats are much more affordable than what you can find in stores. We spent less than $50 for the basement area and that’s a deal.4) They serve as a great insulator. Our son likes to run around and jump and these mats do a great job of absorbing it all. I’m so glad I didn’t go with the thinner ones from Home Depot.5) We didn’t do this but you can easily create a checkered pattern if you purchase the mat in two colors.6) The foam mats are very soft and comfortable to walk and play on.Cons:1) The mats kind of get slippery if you’re wearing socks so we always tell our son to take them off before playing. Better safe than be sorry…2) You have to play with the foam pieces a bit to line them up exactly the way you want for edges.3) Sometimes the pieces will come apart when our son is running up and down. He actually fell down once beacuse of that but luckily he took it with stride. Now we always make sure to watch him when he’s playing.4) There was a layer of dust/debris on the foam mats out of the packaging so we had to wipe them all down with a bit of water and soap before putting them together. I would recommend that you do the same.

I transformed our basement into a Lego area for my son. They are soft and thick and work out well, and these are worth the money. foam squares are big easy to clean.

For those times I don’t feel like driving to the gym, I use a small free-weight set (120 lbs total) and bench in my garage. I was paranoid about dropping the weights and damaging the cement floor so I bought a 24 sq ft package of 1-inch mats in black and they’ve worked great thus far. (The package included six 2 ft x 2 ft mats with twelve thin edge pieces.)I no longer worry about running out of steam at the end of a set of dumbbell presses and letting the weights fall to the floor because the mats do a great job of absorbing the shock.Density-wise these mat are much heftier than I expected based the other reviews. Perhaps those customers bought the 1/2” mats. I can attest that the 1-inch-thick mats are very dense and very sturdy. They probably wouldn’t last more than a few months in a professional gym with hundreds of members stomping on them daily but they are perfect for a home gym set up.And although I haven’t tried, I wouldn’t drop super-heavy weights from over my head to the floor, although that might be fine if you doubled up on the mats to create a 2”-thick surface.NOTE: As you can see from the photos, I set my mats up with a gap for the bench feet. This is to add length for doing dumbbell pullovers. It’s quick and easy to reconfigure the mats into a solid rectangle when needed.

As the title states, this is acceptable quality while on sale. I bought during black Friday. The tiles have some quality control issues as well as some general features that I don't like.I would say: good for HITT if barefoot or in shoes, not socks. Good for weight lifting on a flat floor. Probably not the best for yoga if you are on your knees.Firstly, the thickness isn't consistent acrossed all the tiles. I have at least two that are slightly thicker than the rest. It's an eye sore.Secondly, the color is not consistent. Some tiles are darker than others and some have a gradient across them making it very hard to notice on a single tile but becomes obvious when the light side butts against the dark side of another tile. See photosThe features I dont like:Density: it is very dense. Which is good and bad. Good for weights, bad for yoga. My knees started hurting after washing the surface (which you need to do). I weigh about 170 lbs (77kg). But, it seems supportive enough for weights. It doesn't seem like setting a plate on it over night will leave a mark. I'm sure a dumbell will as with any foam.Slippery: the texture is great. I love its appearance. But they went all in on the "easy to clean" and coated the surface in plastic or something. With sock feet you feel like you are walking on ice a bit. You can't make quick back and forth motions without slipping. But to their credit: very easy to clean.Cleaning: walking on the new tiles in sock feet leaves your socks feeling slippery when you walk on linoleum or hardwood after. That's why you need to wash them after installation. But again, that much is easy.The good: I got it cheap, the texture LOOKS good, the surface IS easy to clean, and the foam is very dense if that's what you need.

This BalanceFrom mat is easy to install and is great for a home gym. The tiles lock together, leaving no seams to trip over. The mat does not quickly absorb liquids and cleans easily with a damp cloth. My treadmill and bike sink into the foam slightly, but I have not noticed any imbalance in the equipment. The mats have worked great for doing floor exercises, soft to ease impact strikes but firm to allow for balance while doing lunges. The foam was placed on the carpet, and I noticed no damage.

Merci

Es un gran completo para tu equipo de entrenamiento, es bastante amplio y de un buen material.Súper recomendado!!(Lo agarre en descuento :p)

I’ve had the installed in my home gym with lots of use since 2021. I’m frankly baffled by negative reviews. The price point and the quality is very good and over two years in the floor still looks like new and is easy to clean.

This tile mat is thick! I use it has a play mat for my baby and it’s soft, durable, and easy to clean! All the pieces fit together perfectly!

These are great. I love that they’re an inch thick. It helps with dampening workout noise. Fit together great and good quality
