STEP2 24 IN PLAYMATS (5 SETS/4 BLUE) Play Mats

The heading clearly states with capital letters that this item consists of 5 sets/4 Blue. WRONG! The item arrived and it is ONLY 4 pieces, at the extravagant price of almost AED 200! In the description paragraph it is mentioned that each set of 4 pieces is 16square feet (so you obviously calculate that times 5 sets) and that there is 1 x Blaster; 10 x Whistler darts; 1 x instructions included. Nothing was included and ONLY 4 playmats at the price of AED 200 delivered. Purposefully totally misleading! If that is not scamming I don't know what is.

SEE (2) PICTURES OF FIT TO "TRADITIONAL" PUZZLE-MAT PIECES IN PRODUCT PHOTO GALLERY.The initial playspace I created for my daughter was not well thought out. I bought 2 of those bright-colored "puzzle" alphabet playmats. When I sat my 7 month old down, first thing she did was strive to pull up pieces and shove them into her mouth. After a few days of this, and realizing I was going to spend every minute supervising her appetite for the bright edging on the traditional puzzle mats, I went to amazon.com and found these.I bought them because (1) they are 2x as thick as those puzzle mats you find at local stores, and (2) no pieces to pick up for the munching and (3) I like the ability to just wipe these down from spills or spitup. Indeed, first thing she did was explore, and not pull up any part of the mat (win!). When she fell over and bonked her head, she didn't cry out but just got back up (win!). I have a Little Tykes Playzone, and had to buy 2 sets of these to cover the space. To my pleasant surprise, the puzzle mat pieces kinda-sorta will interlock with these Step2 mat pieces, So I spelled out her name at the border to add a little "flair" to the zone. I posted pictures of this to the product photo gallery (my daughter's name is Gloria; there are 2 pictures posted)- it's a tight and not perfect fit, but it colors up the space, the puzzle pieces are far out of her reach but liven up the playspace immensely when added to the Step2 playmats.I'm going to give these 4 stars because they're quite expensive, and difficult to set up b/c each square is so large.The traditional puzzle-style playmats will run you a little above 1/2 the price of these playmats AND will give you more ground coverage. But I didn't find playmats this thick in stores, or any that were as babyproof as these. I don't like that the size of these mats makes setup difficult - if you have an odd playspace, you will need to buy more mats than you'll use, and set the extra aside. With traditional playmats, the squares are much smaller, making arrangement that much easier.

We love these mats.Pros: First, you can use it on both sides. Our cat scratched it for few seconds to feel it when we first put it out but he left it alone since. No problem, just flip it and use the other side. Second, as an adult, I can feel the difference stepping on the 0.75 thickness compare to the 0.5 inch thickness we also own. I am not sure if someone with little weight/feet such as a child or a pet can notice the difference of the two but the extra thickness is great considering the cost is similar. Third, like most similar floor mats, these clean easily - wipe it with warm water and it dries out quickly. These mats do no smell. Con: It does not come with corner/edge pieces. Also, it feels a bit slippery when we step off the mats to a wood floor but it's not the fault of the mats.I am not sure how others deal with it, we add some area carpet on the edge of the mats for the transition.Please note that the disclaimer on the box said it is to prevent bumps, not to be used for Gyms. I think this design does not have the "special tracks" as some others but I think it is OK for yoga or play. We bought it for our pets since our hard wood floor is harder on their feet. Overall, it is an excellent product. Although we just got it, I have a feeling that it can last long that it's well made. We bought three sets to cover an area of the room but I am yet to find the edge pieces from the same company to complete the edge.

Purchased a few sets for padding concrete under baby pool and other outdoor toys. Textured just enough to not be too slippery when wet, and are sufficient padding for the occasional tumble by my 2 and 4 yr-olds. The mats interlock very tightly together and have been outside in every sort of weather with no issue. They are easy to clean (with only slight discoloration) and holding up great. The blue does seem to vary in shade from box to box- but having gotten a few, I just mixed them up and it didn't bother me. We plan to get more- they are versatile enough to be used as home-gym flooring or excercise mats in future. Could be nice underfoot in the garage... I'm sure I can use them plenty while kids are small and find other uses when they are bigger. MUCH sturdier then ABC mats we have inside that always shift and come apart, and certainly more neutral. Very pleased with these.

These are blue mats.For my baby:I bought this for my 8 month old daughter as we live in a hardwood floor apartment and she likes to bonk her head. These offer sufficient padding for her to lay on and avoid any bruising.*Side note: It is soft and thick enough for me to lay or sit on it for a while and feel comfortable (I weigh 170lbs)Design:There is no artistic design on the mat other than the little bumps and divots for grip. Functionality design is good. Outside surface seems pretty waterproof as it is easy to clean up spills, spit and other. Expanding the surface area is great as you can buy multiple mats and interlock them together. The package did have a warning against kids under one year of age playing on these mats and I am guessing it is due to the edges which could fit perfectly in the mouth. The mats fit snugly together and are not too easy to pull apart and probably impossible for a baby to pull apart.I would recommend this product if you are looking for something simple and easy. I also plan to buy to cover the entire kids room.The only CON would be the lack of colors.

I like these mats. They have held up well. Nice and thick, lightweight and easy to move around if need be. Also very easy to clean. They have a bit of texture so they aren't slippery to walk on. I found them at a great price, and have had them for a few years now so I'm quite happy with these mats.Although I frequently do reviews on products offered to me at a promotional price, this was a personal purchase. I paid full retail price,and was not asked, nor am I obligated to give a review.
