Playmats - 24 x 24 inch™

I have mine over tiles and they do not come apart. My kids play pretty rough too. The connection is pretty tight.

Yes, anything that weighs much more than a couple of lbs will leave indents in the foam. You can rearrange furniture as you like but if you aren't covering the same areas and don't want to see them, you'll have to flip the affected pieces over. Unfilortunately, that probably means you'll have to flip the entire series of mats because of the way they puzzle together.

These playmats are made of EVA (Ethyl Vinyl Acetate) and do not contain silicone nor flame retardants. Phthalates are plasticizers mainly used to soften and enhance the longevity and durability of plastics, typically PVC plastics. Current testing technology cannot defect zero levels of phthalates. When the level of phthalates falls below an independent test lab's ability to detect the presence of phthalates the lab issues a report stating that the phthalate levels are undetectable, or passes the CPSIA phthalate requirement. Many toy manufacturers use these reports to make the claim their products are "phthalate free". Step2 chooses to make the accurate statement that our products are compliant to the CPSIA phthalate requirements as independent, CPSIA test labs cannot and will not state a product is "phthalate free." The soft plastic materials used in our products are routinely tested and are compliant to the CPSIA phthalates standards. To check the Confirmation of Conformance on, you can visit our website at <a href="http://www.step2coc.com" target="_blank">www.step2coc.com</a> and type in the name of the product and it will give you specifics on testing.

Hmm. not sure what your intentions are with this mat....they are thick enough to help soften the fall of a child learning to walk...but not much more than that. We have hard wood floors, so I covered our play room with these mats for a soften place to sit and play etc....they work out very nicely for this purpose!

Although no small parts come with this playmat or are provided for assembly this product it has been age graded for children 3+. Normal use and abuse testing conducted suggests through biting, torque, and tension a small part of foam could possibly detach. That is the reason for this this warning.

We've used them on our hardwood for almost 2 yrs now and all seems fine...great to have them in our play room covering our hard floors! The only problem is our house was new, so our floors have gotten darker, and when we removes the mats....the play room wooden floor will take a while to get as dark as the rest of the house.

Question for Step2 Staff: Have these playmats been tested for Formamide, Acetophenone, and 2-Phenyl 2-Propanol? If so, what are the test results?

I purchased these mats for my grandchildren about 2 years ago. I used them by my pool deck under there outside toys. They have held up very well even with all the water by the pool. I highly recommend these.
