鶹 Vine Customer Review of Free Product( What's this? )
The material this is made of (XPE/Rubber/Velvet) reminds me a lot of neoprene... what they make scuba suits out of... with a rubbery bottom and cushy top surface. It looks and feels very high quality. Has a good heavy weight to it, it won't accidentally slide off your table. Though it comes folded, in half and then in thirds, most of the fold lines disappeared... all but the center line. But this isn't very strong, so it will hopefully disappear as well.
A few issues I've discovered, that may be already fixed when you read this: - The original velvet case this came with makes no sense. It's 22" x 7.5" which is not any sensible size for folding a 32" x 32" mat. The best way to store this would be rolled. This case won't accommodate this. But, there's now a revised version of this case that is 34.5" x 6-3/8", which is the perfect size for rolling this up such that it has no folds. - There are a few subtle issues with text... a couple spelling errors and a missing word to form a proper sentence. In the latest mat I've gotten, all of these have been fixed except for one. There's also a new design that has none of the text on it. - I had one of these with two small indentations in the top surface that could not be removed. This had to be the result of high pressure on the surface during manufacturing or packing.
The manufacturer (these come from several different vendors) has been very responsive to inquiries and they have been actively improving the product. Several of the issues I reported (spelling errors and case size) have already been addressed. If you get a mat with any of these issues, reach out to the vendor for help.
