4.0 out of 5 stars Decent Soft Pad, February 6, 2004

Seems like a decent soft pad, although it wouldn't kill them to put some velcro strips on the bottom. The foam padding seems more suited to a hardwood floor than carpet. I have to rearrange the pad after every dance because while it doesn't move to any unsafe degree, it will slowly migrate across a carpet. Also, the center feels the same as the buttons, so in the more hectic dances you have no way of feeling where your feet are (with some of the more expensive pads, you can feel the buttons with your feet and know where you are).

Still, I have no trouble with the responsiveness and didn't really see a soft pad that looked to be better. My suggestion: start with something like this (the game I got did not come with any pad, so I bought this one) and if you feel the DDR craze, pony up the cash for a hard, arcade quality pad and keep this one for when the guests come over.

1.0 out of 5 stars Horrible quality, unresponsive company., November 3, 2004

This review is from: Xbox Dance Pad Non Slip (Video Game)

I purchased this pad and the down arrow stopped registering within 3 days. I contacted the company and was promised a callback. No callback, no contact.

The combination of a poor quality product and an unresponsive company means that I will never buy another product from this company again.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great Mat But Get One On eBay!, March 2, 2005

This mat is great for beginners. It won't last too long for advance users but this mat is a great way for a beginners to learn how to play. Some people recommend duct tapping plywood on the bottom of the mat some it responds better, but if you get a mat anywhere, I STRONGLY RECOMMEND getting one on eBay. Usually, they are brand new and factory sealed. They usually come in a sets of two (one for you and a friend) and sell for about $8.50 like this one (either in XBox or PS2) and $15.95 for shipping (The Buy It Now price on eBay is usually $8.50 but you can still bid on it to save a couple of bucks). Shipping for these mats on amazon.com are $4.49 for 3-5 day shipping and $8.98 for two day shipping so you still come out ahead on eBay. I got a mat that retails for $130 (its sort of like the mat that sells for $99 here; its more expensive because it has extra padding and it will last longer) for $20 and $25 dollar shipping. For hardcore fans who really got some moves and play the DDR games a lot, eBay has the metal dance mats with the bar (looks exactly like the one in the arcades) for about $150 (not including shipping). Otherwise, this is an awesome mat but if you want to save money and get one for when a friend comes over, get one on eBay (if you get one on eBay, search ddr or search ddr extreme).
