Melee Mats DND Map Starter Set - 35” x 48", Wet & Dry Erase Battle Terrain Grid for Dungeons and Dragons - Ultimate Tabletop Gaming Experience with Accessories

Got this to start my kids out on D&D. It was packed in a nice round cardboard tube with caps that held the battle mat, dry erase markers, eraser, and spray bottle. So convenient for storage after the game session. Make sure to follow the instructions on rolling it up when you go to store it. If you roll it opposite of how it comes it will constantly try and roll up on you when you lay it out to play. I’ve seen it happen a lot at the local game shops when the host open rpg nights. The thought is that you want to protect the play surface... The mat, while thin, seems very durable. One thing I would recommend is using a microfiber cloth for erasing/cleaning the mat. The little supplied eraser is nice but leaves ink streaks. Also the markers come with tiny erasers on the caps that’s convenient when you need to change something when drawing out you terrain. Overall I’m super happy with this product!!

I've used it for about a year now, and I can attest to the quality. The cardboard cylinder it comes in is great storage, and it's size is the main thing I was looking for. I just use normal expo markers on it, but the original ones worked well, too. The eraser is also nice. They do seem to advertise a bunch of laminated stickers, which simply didn't exist for mine. If you're looking for a large, convenient mat, I recommend this one.

Mat looks cool and is way more convenient than paper, however I dinged it one star because after not quite a year of use, it began peeling a bit and creasing. We store it in its original container and use it an average of about twice a month. I don’t know how this compares to the durability of other mats, as everything basically falls apart as soon as you take it out of the package anymore. I’ll probably try another brand when the creasing/peeling gets annoying enough that it interferes with the mat’s function.

Huge game mat, great for rpg adventures laying out the town, or dungeon or market or castle or whatever. Good for combat or simply adventuring around. 1” wide squares are perfect for my D&D miniatures. Received the product in perfect condition. Great value for the price point. If you can afford it, this larger mat is worth the extra money, as it’s so big, it can pretty much cover every need. Thank you!

I originally purchased this product near the end of 2020. After 3 weeks of use, it started getting folds and creases in the top, making it difficult at best to use. I left a 1 star review explaining how bad the product was. The seller reached out, offering a refund. I instead made them a deal. If they would send me a new one, and it had the same problem, I would bump up my review to 3 stars for great customer service. If the new one worked as advertised, 5 stars for good customer service and a good product. They agreed and it's been about 4 months of use. 5 stars for a good product and good customer service. You get what you pay for, but this is still a great option for a dnd mat if you aren't willing to break the bank, and don't want to replace your mat after every 5 sessions.

I bought the two pack with the 4ft melee mat as well as the smaller battle board. I've yet to use either of them. But I can say upon arrival I was a little disappointed. The tube that the battle mat comes in is what I first noticed. It is not designed at all like the one in the photo. It's just a cardboard tube with a small product sticker on it. Where as the box the battle board came in is very nice and well designed. It looks great on the shelf next to my other board games. But the tube, not so much. I was hoping with the PVC backing and the extra length that the edges and corners of this mat would sit flat without needing to be weighted down. Unfortunately, that is not the case. Right out of the box, the mat still wants to raise up in the corners due to rolling it up in a tube. I may update this review after using it in a session.

Arrived quickly, as described!

When I ordered this a year ago the PVC mats from another company were in short supply, so I went with this laminated paper one instead. Didn't end up using it for 6 months and left it in the packaging. unrolled it on a table and maybe used it once or twice. Had creases in it that cover most of the map. It's usable but pretty crappy. Contacted customer service when I saw the other reviews here but they told me it's been too long since I ordered for them to do anything--so I guess I'll get a PVC one for my upcoming campaign. The material is nowhere near as nice as the pvc or vinyl playmat versions that are available for the same price and the creasing of the lamination makes it hard to draw on and hard to use minis on it. My nephews have had one of those since I bought for them 8+ years ago and we still use it when we play. Caveat emptor.
