One of the best items I ever purchased for my kitchen.  Never realized how much time I spent standing at my kitchen cabinets and sink.  Not nearly as tired now at the end of the day. Really nice padding in this mat.  Spongy. Not having to stand on wood and tile floors is great.  Mat is big enough to cover all of my main work area.  Not to mention I'm looking forward to the added warmth to my kitchen floor this winter.
