I can't believe the difference this has made when doing food prep and cleanup. No more leg fatigue or pain. Perfect balance of cushy and firmness. Beveled edges keep me from tripping on the edge. Easy clean. Not sticky, No chemical smell. May be a little pricier than other mats but worth it. Keep your eye on the email promos for great deals). Made in the USA :o) I trust the integrity of this company and the safety of the product. So glad I purchased this.
