Questions & Answers

I'm not sure how I'm going to get the mat clean. ?

I vacuum the mat before using my steamer to clean it.

Do these foam mats move around on hardwood like other foam mats or do they stay put?

They don't slide away as easily as a piece of paper would, owing to the weight of everything, but they do.

Is there a rough measurement for using four of the border tiles? Thanks! ?

Each tile is approximately 2 x 2 feet in size. Using four tiles in a square with borders, you can make a mat that is about four inches square. 5' x 4' 5 feet.

Why don't you mention that the animals are puzzle pieces that can be taken apart in your description?

Yes, the animals can be removed as well.

Selected User Reviews For SoftTiles Foam Play Mat- Safari Animals- Interlocking Foam Puzzle Mat for Kids, Toddlers, Babies Playrooms/Nursery- Size 6.5 x 6.5 ft.- (Light Blue, Light Gray, White)

On schedule and according to plan
5/5

Because our house has hardwood floors, I purchased this for my child to have a safe "landing zone" for playing. The item was delivered on time and in excellent condition. I'm overjoyed because I've been using this style for gym-related activities. There were some minor fit and form issues with the floor matting. With precise fit, clean lines and shapes, and uniform thickness and color, this product is unrivaled in that category. I can't give it a higher rating for durability because only time will tell, but it's a fantastic product that looks more like a nice rug on our wood floors than a gym floor tile from a fitness center. The tan and white version complements our white baby fence and natural wood floor perfectly, so the wife was delighted. You can also take the animals away as your child grows older for a more educational experience. A good product all around, with a puzzle game with large soft pieces.

The mat is nice, but it easily shows dirt
4/5

We purchased this to protect our children from the tile floor in the apartment we are renting, as they are still young and will most likely fall. This is ideal for that purpose. The fact that hair or small pieces of dirt show up so easily is one of the main reasons I dislike it. I like to sweep frequently, but I don't like to mop. Sweeping doesn't always get rid of it as well as I'd like, and I don't always get a chance to mop it up while my kids are awake but sufficiently occupied. I'm guessing you shouldn't vacuum on it because the bristles might scratch it. Because it bothers me so much, I'm thinking I'll just use the vacuum. But it's a cute design. The animals excite my older child, and the neutral colors appeal to me.

It was well worth the higher price! Our 9- month- For the first time today, my 12-year-old grandson was able to play on these
5/5

He has started crawling. Likes to get up with a lot of help. I wanted thick tiles to protect us from hard falls because we have hard tile flooring. /or your hands crawling on the knees I like how thick the tiles are, which makes them feel more comfortable. 5 millimeters I took a look at a few different brands. The SoftTiles appeared to be the thickest, and while they were one of the more expensive products, I believe they were well worth the money. br>All of the tiles were in a straight line. They go together perfectly. My only gripe is that: br>br> We were given two border tiles that were the wrong color by whoever packed them for shipping. The wrong border pieces, on the other hand, worked perfectly. If you have severe OCD, this may be an issue for you. If I had contacted the company, I'm sure they would have sent me the correct color, but all I want is a safe product, and I believe this is a high-quality product. I'm thinking of getting some for a friend's baby.

Playing on the floor with your baby on this mat is a lot of fun
5/5

On October 26th, 2016, a new update was released. With a very active toddler dragging practically everything across it and two cats clawing it to death, this mat has held up beautifully for over a year. Because it's still in the living room, we walk over it all the time. In fact, I just ordered another one with different animals to complement the first because my daughter now has a play table and the chair slides too easily across the wood floor. As a result, the new mat will connect to the old one, thereby increasing the padded area. Those who argue that it isn't soft should remember that the softer the tiles are, the shorter their lifespan will be. And they're soft enough for my 65-year-old parents' knees as well. After all this time, they still look great; we've vacuumed and washed them with no change in texture (the only damage they have is from the cats, which isn't too bad). They are firmer than other mats, but my daughter has fallen on them numerous times and, while she may bump her head and cry, she is not injured, and the mat does not slide around. They aren't completely waterproof at the seams (of course), but they do help to keep spills at bay. One of the best purchases I've ever made for my baby! Original review: br>br> br>Because we have hardwood floors, I needed something to cushion both baby's body when she moves around and me when I'm sitting on the floor playing with her. This is thick and cushioned to perfection. It's not squishy, but it does have enough give to make kneeling comfortable. The colors are vibrant, and the tiles are incredibly well-knit. It's the perfect size: not too big to fit in the middle of a room, but not too small to fit several people playing on it at the same time. br>br>I'm not sure why some people complained about an odor; mine didn't. Maybe theirs sat in the sun for a long time? br>br>The only thing I'd like to see changed, and this is just me being picky (because I love the set), is for the edge pieces to begin with a wider flat part before tapering down. This is due to the fact that the large pieces' tips are thicker than the edge pieces, causing them to stick up a little. Again, this isn't a deal-breaker, but in an ideal world, there would be no visible edges. br>br>After a few months, I'll update this to let people know if the hardwood floors have been affected by the tiles sitting on them for long periods of time. br>br>As an aside, my cats have enjoyed clawing the pieces, resulting in small holes, but no shredding of the material has occurred thus far, posing no risk of ingestion for baby. However, if you have cats, you should expect them to use these tiles to "sharpen" their claws.

Overpriced and difficult to keep clean
3/5

These were something I was hoping to enjoy. They're a lot bigger and more durable than the cheap marble print squares I bought before, but they're a magnet for dirt and hair! I'm picky about my hair, so I clean this thing twice or three times a day to remove hair and dirt smudges. Because the ones I bought are white and tan, dirt and hair stand out quite well. br>br>The surface isn't particularly smooth, so don't worry about your child sliding around, but the grooves and texture may cause them to trip. There's a lot of it.

These are fantastic! They've arrived (unfortunately)
5/5

These are fantastic! They've arrived (alas! ), and we're ready to go. ) in our living room, and they look great; they provide excellent cushioning for my 9-month-old, who is constantly cruising and climbing on everything and falling; my 3-year-old also enjoys playing on them; and it's a comfortable spot for an adult to sit with the boys. No off- I felt good about buying something that was less toxic than other brands of foam tiles and mats, and I felt good about buying something that was less toxic than other brands of foam tiles and mats. We have the black and white in our main living space, and while I love that color scheme, I will warn others that it shows dirt a lot.

The Mat is fantastic, but it scratches very easily
4/5

We adore this mat, and it's the perfect addition to our son's room. It has a fantastic appearance and is extremely comfortable to sit on. My only concern, which isn't really a complaint, is that we have a 60-pound dog whose nails rub against the surface and leave marks and gouges whenever she walks or sits on it. I have no complaints about the product or the company, but please keep your pets away!.
