How dense are the pads, will they hold up over time?

The pads seem to be dense enough. Comfortable and should hold up for the long haul. Btw if you've never used a SSB, they will kick your a$$. Great if you have bad shoulders, your lower back takes a beating, and a great front squat substitute.

I bought these awhile ago, they very dense and heavy and have about an inch thick bottom, so over time it slowly erodes and turns into a double shot glass. as long as you wipe them dry after every use they are worth it.

We have been sleeping on this gel foam pad for 3 years or more. I honestly haven't noticed that it has changed at all. I would say it will definitely last more than a year. &#128521; hope you enjoy it as much as we have&#128549;

I believe they are a type of high-density foam, judging by the feel and weight of the pads.

I have had issues when the dogs are playing and run over or into the pads. In that situation the pads slide or get bunched up. But normally the pads are large and heavy enough that they stay put. There is no sticky material or non-slip material on the pads.

Hello! I purchased mine ages ago, and still going strong. They are quite thick but not heavy. Have come in great use at our house.

I'm not sure how to answer that. It's not firm- just a nice quality pad that is about a 1/2 inch thick. I think it's great.

This will likely depend on the surface upon which you place the pad. I use mine on a low-pile carpet and although the cheap (no foam, very thin) versions tend to slip a bit, these are pretty solid. Even after a very energetic song, the pads have seldom moved more than an inch or two from their original location.

I have no idea how you measure the density but I bought 4 of the 2" mattress pads and am well pleased. Two of the mattresses were old and I thought I would have to replace them but the foam pads make the mattresses firmer and comfortable. I hope this helps.

HII LOVE those pads. They are made of really quality material,and are NOT flimsy.After use I rinse dirt off, then addn a TSP of bleach to a quart of cold water, and soak themfo 1/2 hour, or so, tehn washhh it together with the white laundry, and hang it up to dry.This pad probably lasts a long time.Linda in MI

Just picked some up! Honestly, for heavy use over a decade, a fresh set of pads is worth it and not pricey at this point... I can't believe they still sell the same model so many years later; it speaks well for the product. Thanks for the link!

Like a dense light foam with black grip pads not the bottom (not sure how grippy they are)

The softer fluffy inside part is covered on both sides by a smoother woven cotton. This should provide enough structure to prevent cotton fibers from "melting/unraveling" into a blob. I don't immerse the pads but soak them pretty well - they keep their shape and they hold up. Good luck!

They seem pretty durable to me. I'd say they'd hold up. They don't work very well for inside use, just an FYI

My pad has worked every time over a time period of several months. Since it has no moving parts I don't expect it to wear out very soon.

They have held up great. They might be good for hardwood floors if you put a rubber mat down the size of the base. They are medal.

Dear Karla, The pads do go back to their original shape after seating 180#, but ours haven't held more weight yet. They are very nice though, and I guess would return to their original shape after even more weight. They are a little bit smaller in size than the average chair cushion which may not be comfortable for larger folks??? I got them because they fit my card table chairs perfectly. I hope this helps.
