Does this mat roll up like a fabric mat? Or is it stiff like a regular dry erase board?

It is stiff and does not roll up. It must be metal under the white marker board exterior as it is heavy and magnetic.

It is not stiff like a dry erase board but wouldn't roll up real nice like fabric. It's about a 4 to 5mm thick piece of magnet mat material. Like a thin refrigerator magnet.

It has the thickness and flexibility of a refrigerator magnet, so you could probably roll the edges to make a complete circle, but not much more. Rolling it much further might wrinkle the material or crack it.

This mat provides better cushion than a standard yoga mat for abs but is firm. I use it on hard tile floors and it is fine. In response to the other answer about yoga I use it for yoga x all the time I find it less slippery than my yoga mat.

It is not like a rug. It is more like a vinyl mat. There are no fibers. But it is durable. I have it in my Kindergarten classroom. It is fairly large. The kids roll it up when they are done playing with it.

It is not stiff as a board. It's semi soft. I put my feet on it and try not to dent the corners by placing a throw pillow under my feet.

flexible but not floppy. it's not a stiff plastic - you would need to have it on rigid surface to write on it

It does have a very feeble rubber backing that doesn't do too much. It does bunch up, but it can easily be put back in place with your foot. I love my mats (I have two). They catch a ton of grime and dirt from coming into the house. I am always amazed at home much they hold everytime I wash them.

It is 4-15/16" (12.5mm) long, 2" (5mm) wide, and 15/16" (2.25mm) thick made out of a hard pressed very lightweight material like Styrofoam (but it does not crumble or anything like Styrofoam), and the erasing pad itself is glued onto it and is about 3/8" (.9mm) thick. It is a very soft felt like material in a loose pile (not woven like felt). It works excellent for dry erase and is so light it is not tiring to use. I have not tried in on a chalkboard but don't think it would work well for that. The erasing material is entirely different. When I have erased a lot and it collects a lot of residue from the ink I simply brush it off with my hand over a trash bin and it seems to clear easily. I think you could also use the fine tooth end of a comb but I have not had to do that yet.

Canvas but not real stiff. I wash it in my washing machine and then I air dry it.

I would discribe it as a hard rubber feeling. It holds the shape it's shipped in for a while (rolled up), I got mine in the summer and an afternoon in the sun flattened it right out. It also has a nonskid feeling too. So things don't slide well on it, a good thing for me. The raised letters and circles can be dented, so it does act like plastic in that regard. I had a plastic milk crate filled with stuff in back that dented the raised spot where the tie downs are. Overall I like the mat very much.

I can't tell, but I'm not that happy with the mat. It indents with anything that is put on it.It's too soft.

Mat is flexible, but not that flexible. It's flat though and only about 1/4 inch thick.

I relied on the answers below and ordered this mat. However, mine arrived rolled up, not as tightly rolled as another one I had previously but still not flat. Just so you know.

Kara, This mat is pretty smooth on the drying surface. I have other drying mats that have "texture" to them. I see no significant difference in the drying time. I do like the plastic backing on this mat as it stops mold and mildew issues that I have experienced with other mats. Hope this helps.Lee

Yes this mat is thick enough that it will not bunch up during intense work on it.

The mat has some cushion but it is not nearly as thick as a playmat. I would use it on hard wood floors if I was with my baby the whole time to prevent any bumps. Hope this helps!

hmm; without trying it out, i couldn't say for sure--but the chalkboard is pliable--very soft. and with amazon's return policy, you can't lose.
