MustMatTatami Mat Twin XL Japanese Floor Mattress Foldable Bed Frame with Storage Bag Rush Grass 39 x80 x1.4 in (Black)

I bought this tatami mat because I wanted to try sleeping on the floor like a real Japanese person. I was a little skeptical at first, but I have to say, I'm really happy with it! The mat is very comfortable to sleep on. It's firm, but not too firm. And it provides good support for my back. I've been sleeping better than ever since I started using it. The only downside is that the mat can be a little difficult to clean if it gets dirty. But other than that, I have no complaints. I would definitely recommend this tatami mat to anyone looking for a comfortable and stylish place to sleep.

I knew that it was going to be firm, but it was just as firm as the floor, and I thought it would at least have some level of give, so that it would be comfier than just hardwood floor. I was wrong. But the biggest issue was the smell that emanated from this tatami mat. The moment I took out the bag from the box, an immense smell of fish flake food hit my nose. I thought this may just be how rush grass smelled, and tried to stick it out. But not only would the smell not go away, the smell would also imbed itself onto the blankets, pillows, and coverings I'd place on top of the tatami mat. I tried fixes, like setting the tatami mat out in the sun for a couple days, but that didn't help eliminate the smell at all. It's one thing if the smell was a nature-esque smell ... but it reeked fish flake food for heaven's sake and for anyone who knows that smell, it's not pleasant at all. Maybe that's just how rush grass smells, but I somehow doubt that, it seems like it's something more to do with the quality of the product, as well as the other materials that were inside the mat.

I like the way how I feel , I like it firm , I just wish the fold area would make it more stronger , guys. Smell is Normal, common sense,,

I got this, so I can take it with me when visit my daughter. I tell you this much this is way better than those so call air beds. Last time I sleep in that my sciatica come back heck worst. Thanks but not thanks. This is better. And smell like natural fibers. The smell is strong but in a good way. Well if you like the smell of nature like dry flowers etc. It is sturdy, softer than the floor yes, but is not soft like a cushion, not even close. Japanese people use this more like a bed frame. Again not a cushion.I love it that is portable. and comes with its own carrier bag with zippers. I think is more suitable for people that like to meditate or for emergency visitors, just make sure you put a fluffy comforter as a cushion and you are good to go. Belive me is better than an air bed. No mention it is great for the environment.I think is worth the price. When I was little, my mom got me one, so I can play instead of sitting on the cold floor or taking naps. Maybe that is why I like the smell, reminds me of my childhood.This will make an excellent gift for "Namaste" PP lol ♥It is the size of a twin bed but folds. I think that was great because my pooches like to sleep with me. I have a Pom and a Maltese. Yeah, they are my 4 legged children lol.I highly recommend it!

It's very uncomfortable. I won't suggest anyone to buy it. Not only it's uncomfortable but also it's broken after a couple days.

In a traditional tatami mat, the core is made of multilayered rice straw, tightly fastened, and compressed. The core of this mat is high density foam. So while it looks very old fashioned and traditional, it's not. Just keep that in mind before you purchase. That may be ok because the foam may last longer. Then again, it may not. I mention this because I'm not sure how long lasting this will be; and two, I'm not sure what is creating the unpleasant and persistent odor. At first I thought it was just the natural rush. Now I'm not so sure. May be the foam? It was so overwhelming that I had to put it out in the sun to outgas it. It still smells.It's pretty comfortable and gives good support. I wanted to lay a pad down on it to do stretching. But I am still waiting for the odor to subside.

I got the mat for easy set up additional sleeping space. I often have family over with children. It serves as an excellent bottom layer for a thin matrass pad- a set up that I am able to create in minutes. It is hard, and perfect for those who prefer or need a hard surface to sleep, but with a matrass pad on the top, it creates a very comfortable extra bed. In addition, we used it for camping as a bottom later for sleeping, it is so easy to pack in the car and fold and unfold. Excellent quality and great isolation!

I have used rollable woven grass mats for sleeping when young. I liked to try the Tatami mat for sit down meditation and to use it as a top on a cushiony futon. The 39 x80 x1.4 in size is a good fit.I liked the Tatami mat as it is foldable to an easily storable, rectangular shape (folded size: 39 x 20 x 5.6 in.) and has a non skid bottom surface.I have heard sleeping on a firm mat or mattress is good for your back. This Tatami mat uses high density foam to provide firmness. The seating/bedding surface is made of Igusa grass (Rush grass). It will take sometime to get used to sitting or sleeping on a firm, non-smooth surface.The woven grass surface, with fine ridges and valleys may stimulate body parts that come in contact. Sitting on the Tatami mat is like sitting on a hardwood floor except it is elevated (by about 1.5”) and the surface is not smooth. I like the knitted grass surface.It is great, the Tatami mat gives a specific place in a big room. I enjoy doing peaceful meditation in lotus pose and pranayama (breathing exercise) sitting on the mat.I will recommend this Tatami mat to anyone who needs it.
