CGEARSand-Free Mat - Orange/Tan, Small

Having looked at other products claiming to do the same thing, only to read the reviews indicating they clearly done, I decided to pay the extra and get this, the original 'sand-free' mat and how glad I am!!Used it for two weeks holiday earlier this month and am so happy with it.Don't waste money on cheap alternatives that DO NOT stop the sand passing through it, you will not regret buying this mat.(Does take up quite a bit of space in your suitcase mind you)

This (6'x6') is our second Cgear sand mat bought for this summer for beach life back home. The other (known as Matt) is larger at 8'x8' and is truly brilliant but it lives in Barbados (with a carer) where it has been used for years (it is on the bulkier side for packing in a case, so it happily live there awaiting our return). It absolutely does the business and keeps sand where it should be.....worth every penny!

We use this "rug" under our dog's tent while camping. When our dog isn't with us, we use it in front of our tent so that we have a relatively clean & dry place to take off our shoes before getting inside the tent.It's heavy duty material, and I like the metal D-rings at the corners and sides so we can stake it down to keep it lying flat. Rain and small debris like sand and grit just fall through it because it's like a mesh material. I also like that it's reversible!Very easy to hose it off at home after a camping trip too. Comes with a good quality carrying bag to store it in. We have the 6'x6' size, and are considering buying the 12'x12' version to use when we go RV camping.A bit pricey perhaps, but you do get a quality item for your money so I highly recommend it.

We camp in Cape Cod every year and the sand coming into the tent is always an uphill battle. We staked this down this year outside the entrance to the tent and we were so amazed at how well it worked! We didn't have a fraction of the sand in our tent as we normally would have even with towels and rugs to try to catch the sand. The material may be too rough if you were going to lay on it on the beach but for our purposes it was perfect!

Initially, I wanted the 8 foot x 8 foot and ended up ordering the 6 foot x 6 foot due to availability. I am actually glad I only got the 6 foot one as I didn't need more. I took this to the beach with my family for 1 week (6 days of beach use). I can confirm what several reviews say. This works awesome for dry sand. With wet sand (as you would expect) as the clumping does not allow for the sifting action to work.I did not use tie downs and was in 10+ MPH winds the entire week. This was not an issue with how heavy the blanket is.ONE minor issue: the cord that closes the bag doubles as a shoulder strap. This came out on its first use. Not a huge deal though as the closure still worked fine. I am so happy with the product itself that I will not complain about the bag at all. It is just something to be aware of. For folks that toss this in a cart, this won't make or break the deal. For those that want to use this as a strap, just loop the remaining cord over your shoulder and it works fine.All-in-all, I cannot recommend this enough. Once I was done with my week of use, I hosed this down and was able to remove any few sand remnants that were left (hardly any).

Wow. This works incredibly well and exactly as described. It solves a lifelong challenge of shedding sand.

I used this for six weeks in Baja doing the whole #vanlife and this mat at the beaches is just "chef's kiss". It's amazing. Perfect for keeping sand out of my van and having a place to sit on too.
