Decent Soft Pad
Pecos Bill

Seems like a decent soft pad, although it wouldn't kill them to put some velcro strips on the bottom. The foam padding seems more suited to a hardwood floor than carpet. I have to rearrange the pad after every dance because while it doesn't move to any unsafe degree, it will slowly migrate across a carpet. Also, the center feels the same as the buttons, so in the more hectic dances you have no way of feeling where your feet are (with some of the more expensive pads, you can feel the buttons with your feet and know where you are).Still, I have no trouble with the responsiveness and didn't really see a soft pad that looked to be better. My suggestion: start with something like this (the game I got did not come with any pad, so I bought this one) and if you feel the DDR craze, pony up the cash for a hard, arcade quality pad and keep this one for when the guests come over.

Horrible quality, unresponsive company.
W. Bumgarner

I purchased this pad and the down arrow stopped registering within 3 days. I contacted the company and was promised a callback. No callback, no contact.The combination of a poor quality product and an unresponsive company means that I will never buy another product from this company again.

Great Mat But Get One On eBay!
M. Boone

This mat is great for beginners. It won't last too long for advance users but this mat is a great way for a beginners to learn how to play. Some people recommend duct tapping plywood on the bottom of the mat some it responds better, but if you get a mat anywhere, I STRONGLY RECOMMEND getting one on eBay. Usually, they are brand new and factory sealed. They usually come in a sets of two (one for you and a friend) and sell for about $8.50 like this one (either in XBox or PS2) and $15.95 for shipping (The Buy It Now price on eBay is usually $8.50 but you can still bid on it to save a couple of bucks). Shipping for these mats on amazon.com are $4.49 for 3-5 day shipping and $8.98 for two day shipping so you still come out ahead on eBay. I got a mat that retails for $130 (its sort of like the mat that sells for $99 here; its more expensive because it has extra padding and it will last longer) for $20 and $25 dollar shipping. For hardcore fans who really got some moves and play the DDR games a lot, eBay has the metal dance mats with the bar (looks exactly like the one in the arcades) for about $150 (not including shipping). Otherwise, this is an awesome mat but if you want to save money and get one for when a friend comes over, get one on eBay (if you get one on eBay, search ddr or search ddr extreme).

A good pad
A. Jimenez

This pad will get the job done for DDR Ultramix. The buttons are sensitive enough for the game and it has a decent amount of padding. It's very similar to the soft Konami pad that came bundled with DDR Ultramix.However, there are a few cons to the pad. First, it's recognized as a regular controller on Xbox Live. Also, the ports at the top of the pad do not support the headset (which the Konami pad does). It will only take memory cards. So if you want to play online, you are better off with the Konami pad that came with the game (which you cannot buy more of).However, these are great for extra pads when you have friends over. Personally, I bought two of them so I could then "mod" them by giving them a hard cover. I did this with plexiglass squares and a hardboard. Directions to do this can be found with a search for "DDR Chubby Pad" on the internet.I came out with two really nice pads that will last a long time.

Horrible!! Big Waste of Money
Jack Orwell

I am a big DDR fan, and was very dissapointed with this mat. On the third day of recieving, my down arrow was broken, and Naki's telephone and website are out of service. My friend owns a Konami mat, and they are very good, but I have to save up for one, which is a pain. That might sound sad, but I am only 14 and they cost 50 bucks!

3 faulty pads in a row
Brian K. Roberts

Within a couple weeks the down arrow started failing. Amazon quickly replaced the pad with the same results. Then we had to return the 3rd pad for the same reason. Something is seriously wrong.

not money well spent
Stacy McMahan

This pad works great for a couple hours, and, just like everyone else, the down arrow stops registering. Don't waste your money on this pad. I am so mad that I didn't read the reviews before buying this product. Also, you can't feel with your feet whether you're stepping on an arrow or another button. And, where are the lights? Oh, and Naki's phone number and website are out of service. I'm not buying a Naki product again.

No Good
Amazon Customer

I bought this pad for my daughter with her new XBOX and DDR software. The pad died in two hours. The back arrow wouldn't work anymore. I pulled out the instructions and it said to contact nakiusa.com - When I entered the website I received a page that said my account was suspended per an earlier email!!! What account? What email. I've never heard of this company until Christmas! I saw Naki's US address is on the west coast near where I live so I looked up their number through an on-line yellow pages site and called the number - guess what it is no longer in service. End of the road for Naki. End of the road for me and this product. We upgraded to a $99 product from RedOctane - unfortanately that one quit after two days! Wish I had better reviews and luck. Good luck!
