Can this mat be used for napping?

It is not super soft, but it could be used for napping. I bought it for my 10 year old daughter to practice tumbling.

Thanks for your question. The gymnastics mats have a crosslink polyethylene foam core. This foam is firm to provide stability for stunts. If you looking for something soft to sleep on I would not suggest this gymnastics mat.

Hi James, I do not think this would be advisable. The sliding and shifting of the pad would make sleeping very uncomfortable. You would be forever adjusting the mattress pad under your sheets. BL

Yes it can. We got it and have slept on it several times. It is very comfortable. Good deal for the money.

Possibly. I have only used mine to provide extra cushion when sleeping on a cot. I slept on it for a total of 8 successive nights and it worked fine for that. It is about 3 inches thick.

I don't think it will necessarily deform, or damage the sleeper. I just don't think this is a great product to sit it on for long periods of time due to it's size, it may be a bit uncomfortable.

Yes, if the temperature is comfortable. I use mine twice a week after exercising wile I stretch out on a mat with the pad under my back. The pad will time out before burning you if you doze. (Pad directions say don't sleep on it.)

I don't think so. The cot is not wide enough and I doubt you would be able to get a reasonable night's sleep without being able to move some. You might be able to fit an adult and a small child on it, but neither would be able to move much all night.

No it does not recline far back enough to take a nap in. Also, it is not comfortable in the sitting upright position. The head rest does not fit my head in the right place, but I am a short person. May be better for a taller person. Also, it does not rock. The material seems to be of good quality material. Good luck!!!!

I don't see why not. However, it might develop soft spots rather quickly. I have had one for about a year and it is noticeably softer where I sleep compared to the middle.

Yes, that is the thing that I love most about this activity mat. The pillow is a loose pillow and you can use it anywhere. The mat is washable but I would let it air dry and not put it in the dryer. This is my second mat and I absolutely love it. My 2 year old absolutely loved his and I ordered a second one for my 6 week old who is now looking around and enjoying his. I would give this a 5 star! LOVE LOVE LOVE IT! :)

I do not advise this chair for sleeping. When opened for sleeping it is on the floor and your head gets buried with the 2 side arms and you are closedin. It's not appropriate for sleeping, it's very un-comfortable.. I use it for my cat, he sleeps on top of it, but I would not expect any guest to sleep on it noteven a child..

I seriously doubt if this would help in your situation. We use it on top of our sleep number mattress which is adjustable. We find it extremely comfortable.

Not sure of that. This mat is primarily good for having to be positioned on knees, or laying down and doing various exercises.Running, jumping jacks, etc may not be a good idea on the mat.

The paperwork that came with it gave some recommendations for time to lay on the mat. I do 10 min. or so, which is enough for me. I don't think going to sleep on it is a good idea, personally.

Yes, you probably could but in our experience, the thicker the pad the better otherwise the central support bar can be annoying. One person can indeed sleep on this but not in the center unless you have a very thick pad. I have sat on it, napped on it without having any feeling like it was going to tip over. Kids can crawl on it without any risk of it tipping over but the steel support beams could hurt them if they fall on it. Again, well padded mattress (or good air mattress) solves this problem. though some air mattresses will slide around when no one is on it holding it in place.

I don't think so - it is very soft. My husband and I purchased this for that very purpose. We unwrapped it, put a mattress cover on it, put it on our bed and laid on it. Immediate back pain for both of us. We laid there about 5 minutes and it just got worse. So we returned it. Minus a huge restocking fee. And less than pleasant customer service.

No. I think a memory foam pillow would work better for you, or a foam pillow that you can scoop away some of the foam.
