This product saves the wear and tear on my knees. I love to cook but tile floor in our kitchen makes it hard on my knees. After a full day of prepping for a party I could hardly move I was so sore. I have purchased 3 of these Chef's Mats by Gel Pro and they are the best thing for my knees. Now I can enjoy all the hard work from my day of cooking without the pain from my knees. Thanks Gel Pro.
Pros: comfortable, construction, size, Appearance/ Design /Style, Arrived in good condition, Functional/Useful

Gel Pro mat does not last

PostedAugust 29, 2011

jtjose
fromTexas
I have the ostrich design Gel Pro mat. For the high cost of this product it should last much longer. After 2 years, each side of the mat is curling up which causes me to trip over it. Even the side that has been tucked underneath the cabinet is curling up. I don't understand why it is doing this. It's not lying in sunlight, etc. I won't be buying another one. Spending $200 for only 2 years worth of use is just not worth the money.
Pros: True to Color, comfortable
Cons: Performance, sides curl up

This is so much better than what I expected and it makes it so comfortable to stand at the sink or counter or stove cooking and prepping and washing dishes for long periods. If you ever experience feet or back troubles from standing for long periods this is the product to get. It also cleans very easily and does not slide around. I got the smaller one and move it to where I need it but will be getting the larger one so I always have it where I need it.
Pros: Easy to Clean/Wash, comfortable, Appearance/ Design /Style, Performs Well, Arrived in good condition, durability

This mat makes the dish washing much less tiring as it provides great cushioning under my feet.. My ankles and calves don't feel near as tired when the job is done. I might have to think about getting another one for in front of the stove! It looks nice, too!

Although not the most beautiful floor mat, the gel-pro is certainly the most comfortable for one's back and feet! Thick and spongy, it is a delght to stand on when doing any chore at your sink or anyplace else that requires a long period of standing. It is very easy to keep clean: all that is required is a quick wipe-up with a minimum of soap and water at the end of the day to keep it nice and fresh. I'm thinking of buying a larger one for my laundry room.
Pros: Easy to Clean/Wash, Value for Money, quality, Material, Warranty, True to Color, comfortable, multi-purpose, construction, Performs Well, Arrived in good condition, durability, Functional/Useful, Long-lasting

I love GelPor mats, except for their cost. And their color choices. All their colors are on the murky side, as opposed to clear. And this mat, in particular, is more of a misty green than any shade of blue. Fortunately, that will work where I wanted it. But I wish they would do a purple that isn't reddish-brown, a blue that wasn't green or muddied navy. I would buy more, if they came in colors I could use.

Cons: color not as described, expensive

Incredible Mats

The information regarding the mats sounded like just what we were looking for but it's always so hard to tell the quality, look and feel of a product just from a picture. However, our "feet" were screaming "try it! c'mon , try it"! So, we did. All I can say is that you should include in future descriptions, "it's like standing on a bed of the worlds finest cotton". The mats are incredible. We cook/bake alot and standing in front of the sink or stove for extended periods of time is no longer a strain. The look is contemporary and cleaning takes all of two minutes. We just love them. Oh, and by the way, our "feet" are mighty pleased with themselves for talking us in to purchasing the mats . . .
Pros: Easy to Clean/Wash, Value for Money, quality, Material, True to Color, comfortable, construction, Appearance/ Design /Style, Performs Well, Arrived in good condition, durability, Functional/Useful

My husband is the chef in the house and is very picky about his kitchen, so I was on risky ground with this gift. But I thought it would help prevent a tired back and legs at the end of lots of cooking. He was leary at first, but has really found the GelPro to be practical and still looks good in our very modern kitchen.

These Gel Pro Mats are the best ! My legs and back thank me every time I stand at the sink and stove! My husband loves them, especially since we have tile floors in the kitchen. He does quite a bit of the cooking and wonders what took us so long to invest in the gel mats!!!!! If you have tile these are a must have. They're expensive but worth every penny! Plus the free shipping made them less money than the other sites.

I love the new mat, the comfort for back, knees and feet is unbelievable. What a change after I removed my area rug. The look of the new mat is fine. After using it for a couple of years, it will prove if it was worth the investment.

I purchased the azure blue mat for my kitchen. Product arrived very well packaged (very heavy!). Although I was hesitant to purchase it because if its high price tag, I really wanted something of quality and durability. This mat fits the bill and I'm very happy with the purchase.
