How to Set Up Your Ruggable Play Mat

Your Ruggable Play Mat arrives as a single piece–no assembly required. Simply unroll it, place it with your preferred design facing up, and it is ready for play. Because Play Mats are double-sided, you can flip them any time for a fresh look.

Before You Start

  • Clear Your Space: Choose a clean, dry, level floor.

  • Unbox on the Floor: The Play Mat measures 82.7" × 55.1" and weighs approximately 19 lbs, so unbox it on the floor rather than a table or counter.

  • Save the Box: Consider keeping the original shipping carton—or even half of it—to use as a handy storage sleeve later.

  • Allow Time to Settle: Light creases or curled edges from shipping are normal and will relax flat on their own within a few days.

Step-by-Step Setup Guide

  1. Unbox: Slide the rolled mat out of the carton. Remove the outer plastic film, the inflatable end inserts, and the foam sleeve from inside the roll.

  2. Position the Roll: Place the rolled mat along one edge of your space, with your chosen design facing up.

  3. Unroll: Slowly unroll the mat flat across the floor.

  4. Let It Settle: Leave the mat flat. Any minor curling or creases from shipping will naturally smooth out within a few days.

Setup & Usage Tips

  • Creases or Curling: Edges will relax on their own within a few days. Leave the mat flat and let it settle. Foam will relax faster in a warm room and more slowly in a cold one.

  • Do not Fold: Always roll your mat. Folding creates permanent creases in the foam that cannot be undone.

  • Footprints or Impressions: High-density foam holds temporary impressions underfoot–these will naturally bounce back on their own.

  • Mind the Wheels: Heavy furniture, walkers, and large-wheeled ride-on toys can leave lasting marks or snag the surface, so keep them off the mat.

  • Indoor Use Only: Long stretches of direct sunlight and outdoor use can fade and wear the surface, so keep it indoors.

  • Flip the Design: Play Mats are double-sided. Flip at any time for a different look.

How to Store Your Play Mat

If you need to rotate designs or put your mat away temporarily, follow these steps to preserve its shape:

  1. Roll, Never Fold: Always roll the mat. Folding creates permanent creases.

  2. Keep the Box: Slide the rolled mat back into its original carton (or half of the carton) for protective storage.

  3. Store Safely: Keep in a cool, dry place out of  direct sunlight.

  4. Unrolling After Storage: If the mat holds a curl after being stored, lay it flat and allow a few days for the foam to relax.
