After a ton of research I bought this mat and I love it because it is thick and great quality. I bought it specifically for The Very Hungry Caterpillar design.
Unfortunately the way the mat is curled up when shipped makes it so that when I want to show The Very Hungry Caterpillar side the mat curves up. I reached out to the company and they suggested I roll it the opposite way for 7-10 days and I could place it by a hot air outlet. My baby uses this every day, I do not have 7-10 days to keep it rolled up. And my house does not have a hot air outlet. I bought this mat 6 months ago and still cannot have the Hungry Caterpillar side facing up without it being a tripping hazard. It definitely has gotten better but the curl is still there. I am disappointed I bought it specifically for The Very Hungry Caterpillar design which I cant show.
Only buy if you’re okay with only ever seeing the Zen design or you have time to roll the opposite way to give it time to uncurl.
