OSTENT USB Non-Slip StepMania Dancing Step Dance Mat Pad Blanket for PC Laptop Rhythm Windows Video Game

Been using it every day since purchase and it's held up. A working controller is all I asked for, and I got it. Buttons seem as sensitive as original DDR pad and the hit box is accurate to the printed pattern.

The pad functions just fine. You will have to adjust your own timing for when you go for a specific button since it is a softer pad. Take your time and practice on easier songs before adjusting yourself to harder ones.

It is somehow more cheaply made than the ones i used to own about 12 years ago. I purchased this in an attempt to get some more cardio in my life while i work a desk job at home. The pad worked perfectly for the first 2 days, was using it with the program "Stepmania"The only complaint i had at first was how soft the pad was and how easily it would ball up under you. But this was expected knowing the pad did not come with foam inserts, i had pre-purchased some velcro strips to put on the bottom, which solved the problem.Then on day 2 the back button started to rapidly fire inputs when held down making it impossible to complete songs requiring you to hold the back button down. Now on day 3 the back button and select button have completely stopped functioning. The pad has not even been moved since i opened it from the package and used it the first time, as i set up a dedicated monitor for it and velcroed it to the floor.I would have to suggest you steer away from this product and try to save to get an L-Tek pad shipped (which is very expensive if you live in the US, as the pad comes from Poland).

If you’re relatively new to stepmania and DDR, this is perfect. It plugs in via usb and just works. It’s perfect for learning how to play stepmania. It’s not the most sturdy thing ever though. Happy to say though it’s spill proof!

It works great. It's responsive. You have to download stepmania and configure the keys on the options menu. You'll need to use your keyboard at first to do so. As of March 2021, the Stepmania software does not support Mac users. The latest Mac updates doesn't run well with Stepmania. I'm using it on windows and it runs well.

Pros:- Price. Honestly the only thing going for it.Cons:- The mat is very slick on both sides, and mine did not come with anti-slick pads like described, so on any surface, it would slide like crazy. Luckily, I had some pads I could use, but they weren't ideal.- After a few sessions, the sensors for the arrows have moved around quite a bit, with the down arrow to the point of me missing notes even if I'm stepping directly in the middle of the down icon.- The usb cord itself is pretty cheap and relatively short, so it is very easy for it to unplug itself.- Durability is poor. Even after a few sessions, I have noticed very slight tears in the top mat covering.I have been using the same PS2 DDR mat for years, and comparing this mat to the official ones, it is just a complete downgrade. I'd only recommend this product if you're a complete beginner and only stick to beginner songs, as once you start doing more complex movements and songs, this mat does not do well. You really get what you pay for, so I'd recommend spending a little more for something better made.

Bringing me back to the old days!!

This pad may work for beginners, but if you’re on a higher difficulty, this pad will not stay still or grip to the floor like you need it to.I noticed right away that it’s way too light. Pretty much unusable for me so I’ll be returning it.I’ve had other USB pads, and this one plugged in and connected immediately without me needing to install anything.It looks like the original PlayStation pads, but definitely is not.
