After a long wait, I finally got this pad recently. It took a mere few minutes to break it in, and soon I was completing songs on expert with ease. The buttons were easy to reach, and unlike plastic pads, more difficult for you to lose the buttons and step elsewhere. As if the arrows scrolling down the screen weren't mesmerizing enough, observers took an odd fascination in watching the pad light up with every step. Connecting it was also a cinch.
One thing that I realized was that the moment I stood on the pad, it seemed to give a little. I was dismayed at first, but ignored it until I could not, for it cracked three days after it was delivered. The crack in the right arrow not only affects that arrow, but also affects the left arrow as well. I feel like I'm using a plastic pad now -to press buttons, I must awkwardly and ungainly jump and lift my feet.
This is a great starters pad, however, you can only start with it. This pad will not give you what you ask for. I personally recommend a more durable pad from a more reliable seller.

First off, I LOVE Dance Dance Revolution. I currently own 3 of the games and plan on buying more as I come across them in stores.
But this particular dance pad is horrible! I purchased this pad thinking it would be much better than the foam pads since I play DDR so much, there was always so much wear and tear on the foam ones, and this pad was better...but the upper arrow button stopped working after only 3 weeks of having it. I'm not even a real heavyset person. I'm a 6'2" male, 190 pounds.
To make matters worse, since that pad broke within a month of my purchase, I contacted the company in hopes that I could get my horribly spent money back or at least get a new pad from them to replace the piece of junk they had already sent me. But no, they didn't. They said they couldn't send me a new one or give me my money back, but they'd send me a new part. And this was over the summer and I still haven't gotten this mystery part from them.
My advice, stay away from this pad and just save up the extra $120 for one of the $300 pads cause it seems to me that this company is just a bunch of crooks. It's a great pad until it breaks on you and there's nothing you can do about it.

this product shows a ddr game logo on the web..i think it was not. there was no ddr game logo on it anywhere and the buttons did not have the same writing as my authentic ddr game pad. the max player weight that was on it was 180 and it cracked within one week of purchase. Before that week, however, the lights quit working on one button or would only work sometimes. Quite a disappointment for the cost. Nothing about this pad indicated to me that it was truly a ddr game (brand) pad.

THE METAL PAD SUCKS!!!!!!! Yeah it was fun while it lasted (3weeks) then when the top arrow button stopped working and the top right circle button cracked it all went to hell. The game is no fun any more. I have purchased 6 foam pads and 2 metal pads and they are all junk. I'm sick and tired of these companies making inferior products and not backing them up when they know it's crap. Whatever happened to the days when you and your company where held accountable for your actions and your products? Good money thrown down the drain! Don't, I repeat DON'T BUY THIS PRODUCT!!!!!

I purchased this metal pad to replace a plastic pad that I bought for my grandson for Christmas. The plastic pad is totally worn out. After using the metal pad, he said that while it's much better than a plastic pad, it doesn't stay completely stationary on carpet. The movement makes it hard to place foot in right position on the squares.
