Anti-Fatigue Mat Review
This is a 20 by 30 inch foam mat designed to reduce muscle and leg fatigue from standing in one spot for a long period of time. The mat is thicker then most I have seen on the market at almost an inch thick. This mat is very light weight which makes it very easy to move and clean as needed.
I am going to start with the surface of the mat. It is a smooth black surface. The top can be a bit slippery if you get it wet. So be warned and ready for some slipage on the top side of the mat. Now on the back surface of the mat it has an anti-slip surface to keep the mat from moving when you do step upon the mat. There is also a trailing downward edge around the mat to help prevent catching your shoes/feet on as you are stepping onto the mat as well.
When it comes to durability the mat is mid grade across the board. This mat is designed for clean environments like at a desk or maybe at the sink area of your kitchen for doing dishes. In these situations the mat is amazing and will stand up with out any problems. With the product being made from a foam type substance it does not do well at areas like a shop work desk area. You should consider a rubber mat for a shop environment. I know when I am working on things I tend to drop sharp, hard, jagged, and sometimes even hot which does not work well with the foam material.
The mat does however help with what it is intended to do. It does help reduce the muscle fatigue from standing in one place for a long period of time. It will not get rid of all of the pain from my experience but I have not found anything that will do that. I have also noticed that the ache at my heels are also much less then normal after standing on this mat. The mat claims to help reduce pain in the knees but I was unable to determin if there was any help. I am not sure there really is anything to help with my knees though.
If you are looking for a nice mat to help reduce fatigue and aches this mat can help reduce the pain. It is very light weight, thick, and does help reduce pain. I would like to thank Standee Co. and affiliates for sending me this anti-fatigue mat to try out and share my opinion.
