Quick verdict
LiftEvidence editorial assessment
A solid 4 × 6 ft, 3/4 in rubber stall mat, made in the US. It is the traditional base for DIY lifting platforms — cut into strips for the drop zones beside a plywood centre, or used whole under a rack. Owners describe it as tire-tough, stable and good value. It is heavy to handle, and odour reports are mixed — common with recycled-rubber stall mats.
