Tatami Mat (Twin 79" x 39" x 0.5"), Japanese Traditional Tatami Mattress, Natural Rush Grass Floor Tatami Futon Mattress for Sleeping, Sitting, Yoga, Relaxing (Twin)

This is in it’s spot for a few months, I place my mattress on top of it every night, I don’t mind the smell of the material, I grew up in the countryside of China and this is natural to me. I sleep well and it’s foldable. Its looks just like the pictures. I have been sleeping in my back but I have been sedentary for my work and the lack of exercise make it very hard to sleep still on my back so I am considering switching to normal mattress. I tend to sleep on my side and I wake up with a lot of muscle tension around my neck and shoulder. I will keep this for my future when I feel like I’m ready to commit on sleeping on my back. This is a good product.

I wasn't sure what I was expecting when I bought this, but it's been a huge game changer for my mattress. It keeps things in place nicely, it smells great, and even on its own it's very comfortable!

I use it under my futon. Very good construction. Good price a d delivery. Very little grassy smell at first. I'm quite satisfied. It is a bit too long for a twin frame.

I can’t believe the quality! It exceeds expectations

I just got it and i love how it looks and feel. it's the perfect size for my space and it actually decent quality. The only thing is that it smells really bad. i've kinda already gotten used to it after a couple hours but the first time was awful. Other than that i'm very happy.

This is a very good quality tatami mat. I’ve always slept on the typical box spring and overtime it just sinks and makes my back hurt. Being Japanese I figured I’d try out the more traditional Eastern style of sleeping. The tatami mat has a solid structure that’s noticeably softer than carpet. Just standing on it, the pressure on your feet is relieved. I originally intend to add a futon on top for sleeping but tried out sleeping the night just on the tatami mat. I had a great night sleep on it. I’m mostly a side sleeper so it did hurt my sides a bit but this is just on the tatami mat. If you add a futon it should feel a whole lot more comfortable.Overall, a solid tatami mat with good weight to it. Easily folds up and can function as a bottom bed piece, yoga, or standing mat.Just a word of warning, this has a strong bamboo odor when first unpacked. It only took a day for the smell to dissipate.

The rush grass smells, yes is strong at first. Do not let this hinder you from trying a new way of sleeping. I do not mind the smell, so it was not a bother to me. I rather it smell true to the nature of the natural product (rush grass) than nothing at all.I purchased two twin mats to place side by side. My husband has one, and I have one. This allows us to keep the mats together or put away our mats as we wish. We used the mats first with a full-size mattress topper we have been using on the floor for the past year. We found too often we the mattress topper (the ones you put on a traditional American thick mattress) would slide up the tatami mats. The surface of the tatami is smooth, which caused this to be an issue.We now, however, decided to just sleep straight on the tatami mat. We have found this works best for us. We may go back to owning traditional shikibuton (we owned one without using a tatami mat before), once we save up for them, which would be a better fit for the tatami mat versus the mattress topper.I highly suggest you do your research on changing from a traditional way of sleeping on a bed frame and mattress to sleeping straight on a tatami mat/ and or with a shikibuton. Yes, the mat is firm at first. Our bodies are accustom to comfort and in time it will adjust if you stick with it and understand the transition from one style of sleep to another.

Looks good. Feels good. Stinks like hell.Wish I had returned when I had the chance. I gave it time to air out like it said. I left it outside for 3 months. Still stinky. I covered it with baking soda and vaccuumed it. I sprayed it with vinegar and scrubbed it several times. I left it next to an air purifier running at full blast with a carbon odor filter blasting another fan at it for days. I got activated charcoal. I tried essential oils. IT STILL SMELLS LIKE A DIRTY BARNYARD. I give up.
