Skip HopBaby Play Mat, Interlocking Foam Floor Tiles, 70" x 56", Playspot, Grey/Cream

I waffled for a long time about which mat to buy for our baby's play area. We wanted a soft mat but I hated the ugly primary colors of most foam mats. The set up of our small house makes the living room the best place for this mat, and I wanted something pretty. However, I waited for a long time because this lovely mat was quite expensive. Honestly, it is worth it.The mat is nice quality, soft, durable, and looks great! Our daughter did tummy time, rolled over, learned to sit up, crawl, and then to walk on this mat. She obviously tipped over on this mat a million times and it makes a huge difference. The times she has fallen on the wood floor are obviously so much more painful; we are so glad she had this mat to cushion her most of the time. And it is really attractive. The colors are soft and harmonize with the rest of our house. There are many ways to arrange the tiles, and it comes with extra edge tiles so you can match the colors in whatever pattern you decide to use. They tiles did have a mild odor on arrival which dissipated with a day of airing on the porch. They are easy to clean and have no impact at all on our wood floor. Our daughter is now almost a year old and does sometimes pull the tiles up, but the are easy to pop back in place. The biggest problem we have is that our dog scratches them; the scratches are actually not too noticeable at all. They don't accumulate hair or dirt. Many visiting parents have asked us where we found this mat. I'm glad I finally bought it!

This beautiful mat is an investment piece. I can see baby using this for quite a few years, so it's totally worth not having something that doesn't fit with our decor.Also, it's huge, and the design options are endless. It also makes her room look so cute. We don't buy a lot of baby stuff or a lot of stuff in general, because our apartment is tiny, but when we do, we want it to be high-quality and fit with the overall look of our home when possible. In a small apartment, every item impacts the way our home looks and feels. With that said, we love this play mat. It's everything you'd want: sturdy, yet cushions well, easy to clean, easy to assembly, AND it doesn't look cheap. It'll grow with little baby well into to childhood!

Bought this pad to put on hardwood floors for visiting newborn grandbaby. It provides good cushioning (also for our knees =) but isn't too squishy, so should be easy for a toddler to walk on. Quick & easy to assemble; no instructions nec. I like that both the size & pattern can be varied, as this appears to be very good quality, so probably will be around for a while. Haven't needed to clean it yet, but it looks like it would wipe clean easily with a wet cloth.

When our little one stared crawling & pulling to stand, we realized our thin rug / carpet pad over our hardwood floors wasn’t going to cut it anymore. All the tumbles she taking were a bit rough. We looked into the ridiculously expensive interlocking mats, but just couldn’t justify the price paid as she would conquer crawling, standing & eventually walking within a few months & the mats wouldn’t be as much of a necessity. Not only are these Skip Hop mats well priced, they’re extremely versatile in the design, match our decor perfectly & definitely soften the blow of falling compared to our other rug! They’re SO easy to clean (wet & dry spills) and have held up to numerous beatings over the last couple weeks we’ve had them! We ordered two sets and were able to achieve (roughly) a 10x8 “area rug” with having a few pieces & many edge pieces left over! We’re thrilled with our purchase!!

I obviously can’t fault them for not standing up great to dogs since that’s not what the product is for but worth noting if you have pets. The floor has been great for my daughter, she just started crawling and is pulling herself up on things and she doesn’t even cry when she falls on this. We have hardwood floors so I was concerned about her getting hurt. However our dogs nails pierce it easily so I do my best to keep them off it. Also right after setting it up one of them peed on it and it went through all the little cracks so I had to take it apart to clean thoroughly. Wiped down very easily but was a pain in the butt. So kids juices or anything will also go through the cracks. But for what it is it’s good quality, I specifically got this one because we were gifted this brand already and I wanted to be able to combine them if we wanted. Not disappointed with the quality and the color patterns are very pretty. Also heads up my daughter can take it apart somewhat, mostly just the edge pieces but she has chewed on it and not been able to rip it with her teeth thankfully.

I was obsessing for far too long about what to get, and at first I got a very large and somewhat expensive rug. It needed a carpet pad to be soft enough for my little one, and also an antislip pad because the thing kept moving all over the place. It was constantly shedding which of course my little one LOVED to put into her mouth.After being completely disgusted by the rug and asking some girlfriends about what they used, I did another search on the internet and found the Skip Hop Playmat. I didn't really like the multiple color ones. We have a smallish apartment, and I wanted something that would be good for our little one and stylish.Yes, it's pricey when you start having to get a few of them, but honestly it was much cheaper than a box store rug from C&B, West Elm, or wherever. Also, you can make whatever design you like. I did a slated stripe design, and I think it's very pretty. It is so easy to clean (spills are no problem unlike that dang rug), and while there are some scratches it's very hard to see them. Hope this review helps!

I love this mat! I’ve had it for a year now and it holds up. My toddler has spilled everything on this mat and it cleans great. It’s not super thick but it does its job.
