No Japanese home is without a Tatami Room (washitsu; 和室) which is used for a variety of purposes (eating, sleeping, watching TV). The tatami remind the Japanese of "home" and wherever there is tatami, there is "home".
Our tatami Mats are constructed of Japanese Rush Grass with a double layer top for extra protection. The inside is a baked Dried Rice Straw Fill for strength and durability.
Each mat is sewn with a black fabric border and bound with twine. A moisture resistant barrier is included in the foundation of the mat. Learn more about tatami mat composition here.

Several parts on tatami mats were damaged and some surfaces are sinking and the edges aren't straight, so there are gaps between tatami mats.
Perfect
I have had back problems for years and did some digging on possible solutions. Alot of research shows sleeping on a firm surface would help with back pain and my life has changed in the 1 week since I have gotten these tatami mats. I dont wake up to a stiff or sore back anymore. Besides helping me sleep and wake up better, the asthetic is also really nice.
While doing research on the tatami mats, I heard they may smell. They do but not in a way were it will stink up the room they are in at all. You really have to put your nose to it and give it a good whif. So far my dog also doesnt mind them and isnt scratching them up nor does he have the desire to think he is "outside".
Overall, super happy with the product and the service. Gotta save up for their Futon to make it a complete package.
I absolutely love the tatami mat layout I have setup in my bedroom. I had decided to turn my bedroom into a zero screen, electronics-free rest and relaxation zone, and the tatami setup has done a great job of setting the space apart from the rest of my apartment. The mats are heavy and durable and do no shift around when walking on them. I have my J-Life shikifuton on top of the mats and I have been getting the best sleep of my life. I wake up with much less back and neck pain and have been much better rested since setting up my tatami shikifuton sleep system. Also the customer support is great. Thank you J-Life!
