Bought the playmat for my
"Bought the playmat for my newborn and she is loving it! The mat is super high quality. This is the only playmat i would recommend if you are looking for one."
Best purchase you will make with kids!
"Super fast delivery! Very pleased with the mat looks lovely and is so soft and comfy! I wish I’d have bought one sooner. Worth every penny!! All 3 of my boys love playing on the mat! I have a 1 year old, 4 year old and 8 year old and it’s perfect!"
Great playmat
"Looks great as well as being practical"
Really pretty and comfortable mat.
"Really pretty and comfortable mat. Has made clean up with a toddler so much easier than my carpet while giving the baby somewhere cushioned to explore."
Great for our grown up
"Great for our grown up family with a dog! We have replaced our living room rug with this playmat and no longer have to worry about dog hairs or a rug that smells of dog.. This looks great and has saved a lot of cleaning time and the dog loves the mat nearly as much as the old rug!"
Fantastic play mat!
"We decided to order this after a friend recommended them. Several of us have done the same as they started to crawl. I wish we had got it earlier as it would have made tummy time so much better for our little boy. They are incredibly soft and cushiony on your knees for playing as they start to get more active too. Our little crawler flies around on it with his cars. It is the perfect play mat and it’s great quality. My only wish is that we had decided to go for samples first as this is a little darker in colour than we thought from the photos. It’s a lot closer to dark grey than the blue I thought it was. This hasn’t stopped us liking it at all though. It goes perfectly with our light grey sofas. If you are considering getting one, definitely do. You won’t regret it!"
Fantastic quality, beautiful to look
"Fantastic quality, beautiful to look at, and perfect for tummy time. We all just hang out and play and enjoy wake windows together as a family on ours. Perfect. So glad to have found a playmat that works with the rest of the house and can just stay put!"
So happy
"Absolutely love it!! An essential product for my baby! I was not doing enough tummy time at all because I didn’t have the proper environment for it! Now my baby is much better on tummy time! Super easy to clean, comfortable (I take bunch of naps with my baby on it!), and beautiful!!"
"Love this rug wish I’d made the change sooner !"
Q&A
- Could I replace my normal mat with wooden coffee table on it and use one of these in its place? It's the centre of the living room.
- Hi Thanks for your question. As our playmats are made from memory foam, this means that they cushion and mould around weight, so we do advise that heavy furniture such as sofas, coffee tables, cot/beds or armchairs are best kept off them. Some people take that risk and put sofas etc on them - some of which still recover (and some of which don't. In reality, it tends to be down to the size and shape of the feet/base of the furniture, as that will impact the direct pressure put on one spot. Hope this helps
- Do these mats stay still on laminate flooring?
- Hi there. Our mats have a textured embo and are heavier than you standard foam mat, so they do really well at staying put on any surface!
- Do you test for formamide?
- Our mats are made from non-toxic PVC memory foam, akin to medical grade, and do not contain BPA, phthalates, lead, latex, formamide, formaldehyde, EVA or flame retardants. You can read our full safety testing reports here: https://www.totterandtumble.com/pages/our-safety-reports
- Is there any chance the astronomer will be available in compact size?
- Only the Standard size Astronomer is available for the EU.
