 Average thin dance pad March 13, 2007

A few things about this item bothered me. It is listed as with "thick padding". The photograph of the product looks like a foam pad. I thought I was getting a foam-pad, but I did not.
The product you receive is obviously not what is shown in the photograph (the pad art is different, and the dance-pad in the photograph has contours of a foam-pad, which this does not). The arrows are not elevated, as shown in the photograph.
Instead, we have just an average non-foam dance pad. If you want a foam pad, you have to pay $30 extra for the "Beat Pad Pro" - it is sold for $70. If you spend any amount of time playing this game, you'll want a foam pad (where you can feel the arrows with your feet when you play).
Two other minor negatives: First, the pad slips more than the Konami pad which comes with the game. This was a problem even on the average "difficult" setting. Second, the arrow sensor size was smaller than what I expected. You have to touch part of the graphical arrow - if you miss by 1/4 inch, it won't set it off.
Beat Pad is not like the pictured June 7, 2007

I think the descriptions and images of the Beat Pad Pro and Beat Pad got switched. So the description of the Beat Pad was not correct. The pad does not have padding and is flat (unlike the pictured) Hopefully people don't buy this and think they will get the better features.
 Poor Performance. December 15, 2007

If you are only playing a bit, this pad is fine. But know that it is very slippery at the bottom and if you have wood floors like me, it will move constantly while dancing on it.
Also, the material is plastic, and not the same kind that comes with the game, which is shiny and somewhat durable. No, this plastic is not as high quality. And it doesn't lay flat on the floor like the OEM pad. The edges peel up. This could possibly be fixed by leaving the pad unfolded for a long period of time, but I don't want to do that. And as someone mentioned before, the buttons are not at all elevated, so you can lose your orientation easily while playing.
I rate this a 2/5 because it is still useable, though it is very annoying. Avoid if possible. Get an OEM pad if you can.
Review for the Matt only, not the game January 18, 2008

The matt works fine, but the reset button is on the "handle" of the matt, right in the center. It is very easy to inadvertently tap it with your foot instead of the up arrow, which throws off the whole game.

Pad works fine, haven't used it much yet because too busy. Worked good as extra pad for a ddr party.
