Velotas 3/8-Inch Thick Interlocking Foam Tiles with Rubber Top - Personal Fitness Mat, EVA Foam Puzzle Floor Tiles, for Home Gym Workouts

I really like how they feel under foot and also the look of them. Putting them together is a bit challenging as you have to push/pull at the same time for the rubber portion at the top of the mat to come out evenly. Some pieces didn't quite fit together as nicely as others leaving small gaps. Very mild if any odor, and actually in improvement odor wise from my old EVA mats that had been down for years.My son promptly dropped a 100 LB dumbbell on the mat a couple days after we got it put down. While there is what looks like is going to be a permanent indent in that mat square, it didn't cut through the mat as has happened on plain EVA mats in the past.Overall, a decent value for the money and I'd buy them again.

These are the best mats I have found. It has the perfect level of foam and the rubber overlay is exactly what I needed.

Love it this product and going to get another set.

Highly Recommended! I researched exercise room flooring and decided to go with this hybrid style flooring, which is a layer of rubber on top of a dense foam base. When walking on it, you can feel the cushion, but you don't feel like you're sinking into the floor. It's a great balance of cushion and support. Leaving a dumbbell on the floor for an extended period of time leaves a very small dent that goes away pretty quickly. I have no problem dropping heavier dumbbells on the flooring form a short distance. The rubber surface provided plenty of grip for aerobic workouts.The overall thickness is 11mm or 0.434 inches, which is thicker than stated in the description. The rubber layer on top is about 2.8mm or 0.1 inches.The puzzle lock features nest well together, and for the most part interlock completely flush with the mating tile. There are a few edges of my floor that are raised up ever so slightly, but it's really not noticeable. The edge pieces have stayed in place, and all of the corners are laying flat.Installation was straight forward, and two edges of the tile have a removable edge strip. I had a number of the edge strips left over after completing the area, so don't worry about running out. I did a 12 13 room in about two or three hours, and that included moving equipment and cutting several tiles. very easy installation.

In image 1: I have 4 anchor bolts in my garage cutout floor (back right corner)-it was fairly easy to push them up through the bottom of the pad without causing any cracking or additional tearing. I was also able to make clean cuts in the pad with a box cutter (using a brand new blade) to fit around the support beam at the back left part of the wall. Each square coming with its own removable border strip makes it very easy to tailor the pads to any space, no matter the angles & shapes, without worrying about wasting a corner or side piece like in other sets with fixed edges.Image 2 shows all sizes & weights of equipment I now have on the pads. The weight machine system & elliptical were both moved a little briefly from their original spots, and only left indents in the pad w/ no signs of tearing or cracking to indicate the pads aren’t sturdy or thick enough.Only thing not “perfect” about them is the variation in tone between some of the squares- kind of makes it look like different sets pieces together. I DID purchase two sets to fill the space, but the varying tones came within one of the sets. *Also, if using in a room with poor ventilation, may want to unpack them & set in an outside area to air out for a day or two- they do have an odor that may bother some. With all the driving in/out of my garage, the smell seemed to go away after a couple days- not sure how long if using in a home interior room.

I purchased this mat for a home gym with a full cage. The mat has held up really well with all of the weight of the cage, benches, and dumbbells. I thought that the foam would make the mat too soft and easily dent, but that has not been the case for my setup with a very heavy home gym. The thin layer of rubber helps the mats keep their shape, and resist dropped dumbbells and plates.One thing is the the mats don’t stay together as well as a full rubber mat would, so I need to snap them back together on occasion, but I am fine with this because these mats are a fraction of the price all rubber mats. I am very happy with this purchase.

Got these rubber topped mats for my home movement studio. All I can say is that they are absolutely beast mode. They are not mats you will find locally. High quality, durable, heavy, and thick. Putting together was easy just pay focus on your work. Only thing I will say is that they STINK. I cleaned with cleaning spray to disinfect and try to remove the smell but very strong odor. I hope that with time it will go away! Other than that, I am absolutely happy with my investment and I would highly recommend them to you as well if you are looking for some serious mats. It's worth paying extra for the rubber top!Tip: I purchased mat tape. Alot of people complain on amazon about these puzzle interlocking mats because they might move. First, these are not light mats, they are heavy so even if you didn't buy the tape they probably wouldn't move. Second, I believe other people are buying mats that are your typical 1/2 inch design, if so the tape is def. necessary! The brand I bought "Meister Double-Sided XL Floor Mat Tape". If you think this will happen. I have had no issue with movement on these mats at all.

I was looking for a rubber mat to put under my elliptical machine. The solid rubber ones were way more then I wanted to spend. The all foam ones were too cheaply made so I found this one and it has the best of both worlds. Nice cushion on one side and the other side has the solid rubber (probably an 1/8” thick). Decent price and they fit together pretty good. Definitely recommend.
