Back when a proper drum mat was 2-300+, this mat was ok. It is closer to a normal rug than to a drum mat i think, the underside is not coated with rubber or with anything, so it slides like crazy. The bass drum stop is ok, but you dont need that to keep your bass drum from sliding. The size is also questionable. The thomann rug is beautiful, much bigger, coated with rubber and roughly for the same price.
