I used it for awhile until I built out my floors/turf. It is fine for what it is, the base is heavy and stable and the turf is much nicer than traditional mats like the country club elite to hit off. The downsides of it are that the stance area is a bit narrow and if you have a wide stance or like to tee it up somewhere other than the traditional position your options are more limited. The turf also isn't the same quality as the fiberbuilt strips you see in their more expensive offerings IMO. It's fine to hit off but isn't as dense and is an even bigger compromise for putting.

That said, I got a lot of use out of it, especially early on when I was just hitting into a net with a Skytrak. If you don't want to spend any more money and you want something movable (though it's heavy and awkward) it's a solid option. I actually am selling mine but I was just listing it local since I'm guessing shipping would be a pain and expensive.

Thank you. I figured for $270 at costco it can’t be that bad but figured I would ask around. My only worry is the narrow neck. I may have to buy it and see if it works and then make a decision from there. Thank you.

I bought it and returned it for some of the same reasons mentioned above. I think it's better to get the 1x3 option from fiberbuilt for about the same price and build your own stance mat.

Good to know. Thank you!

I’ve used mine for about 2 years. I have a permanent net setup in the garage but I need to park a vehicle there so the mat has to get moved each session.

it’s worked great and I find it super simple to setup and take down. With Skytraks smaller hitting window the narrower part of the mat can be a challenge with moving ball position to limit no reads without moving the unit.
