We have a home gym. It has a concrete floor because when knew when building our home we were going to use the space as a weight room so we intentionally did not put flooring down. (It's in our finished basement.) I had two teenage boys at the time (now adults) and we purchased this flooring to help with the noise and to protect the floor from accidents. I initially put this flooring down in 2017. It's was super easy to install, wall to wall. It does get thinner over time, but I just recently replaced our flooring, so it lasted a good 8 years. There weren't any holes or any significant reason to replace it other than normal wear and tear. This flooring has been used and abused daily and has held up very well. I highly recommend it. It's relatively inexpensive and easy to put down, it can be cut to fit with a utility knife or scissors if necessary. We have two golden retrievers, they don't normally go in there, but their paws/nails don't hurt it and it's easy to clean with a broom or vacuum. We also clean it weekly with disinfectant. We have never been let down by CAP products, great quality without breaking the bank! Read more

I've been using the CAP Barbell Exercise Puzzle Mats for about a month now, and overall, I'm very happy with my purchase. These mats are perfect for protecting my floor while working out, and they provide excellent cushioning for high-impact exercises like jumping or burpees. Pros: Easy to Assemble: The puzzle-piece design makes it super easy to set up and adjust the mat to fit any space. You can add or remove tiles as needed, which is great for customizing your workout area. Non-Slip Surface: I love how grippy the surface is. Even when I'm sweating or using equipment, the mats stay in place, and I don't feel like I'm slipping. Versatile: These mats are multi-purpose. I've used them for everything from yoga to weightlifting, and they handle it all. I especially like that they can be used in a home gym or in a living room where floor protection is key. Comfortable Cushioning: The mats provide just the right amount of cushion. They’re thick enough to protect your joints without being too soft that it affects your stability. Easy to Clean: I’ve spilled some water and sweat on them, and they wipe off without issue. No stains or lingering odors. Cons: Thickness: While the 3/4” thickness is generally adequate, for certain high-impact exercises, it could be a bit more cushioned. If you're doing heavy jumps or using heavy weights on them, you may want to consider getting additional mats or opting for a thicker option. Edge Stability: The edges where the pieces connect can sometimes come apart during vigorous workouts, although this is more of a minor issue. A bit of repositioning usually solves it, but I do wish the interlocking mechanism was a bit stronger. Overall: These mats are a great value for the price. They provide excellent support and protection for most home gym needs. If you’re looking for a reliable and easy-to-install mat solution, this is a solid choice. The only reason I’m not giving it 5 stars is due to the edge stability and thickness under extreme conditions, but for most home workouts, this product is highly recommended! Read more
Bought these for our mini-basement-gym. They are perfect. I was worried it would be too thin, but they are very comfortable. I have no problem working out on the mats whether it’s sit ups, push ups, etc… it was quiet easy to put together and cut to size as well. Read more

I bought these for my senior dog because it’s hard for him to walk on hardwood, he’s actually able to jump on the bed again. Great support and quality. The size is perfect for the end of my bed and by the dog bowl. He had an accident and I just took them outside, hosed and washed them down super easy. Read more
