Hi guys.  Just curious on the outdoor mat size that people like to use for their R-Domes.  I'm in the market to purchase one but know that you need to stake down the R-dome for it to stay put so I just wanted to see what size mat people generally used inside theirs.

I think we used to use an 8 x 12 outdoor mat. Walmart and job lots sell a good one, that will allow you to put a stake thru it, without damaging it. I think all r-domes are about ten feet wide x 8 feet wide. They are a little wider on the keder rail side, but 12 feet should do.

Thank you.  Does anyone have any links to the type of mat you are referring to?

I bought one of these:

https://www.walmart.com/ip/Stylish-Camping-Reversible-Classical-Patio-Mat/46260697

I can't remember the size, most likely 6' x 9'. It cost me $23.xx in January. I haven't used it, the first time camping since then had too much wind and rain. It comes with a nylon bag and folds up nicely and easily goes back in the bag. Folded it is about 15" x 4" x 54".

This is more of what I was talking about. About the same as the other one, but will cover almost every bit of area under the dome. Ocean state usually has the same thing, when I bought it, it was only 30 - 35 bucks.

Based on a lot of the information I know, I'm pretty impressed with at the Reversible Mats RV Patio Mat, this outdoor mat is 9 feet wide and 18 feet long. I like it because the rug is made of pure polypropylene, which is a breathable material. Polypropylene is extremely soft, durable, and comfortable. I also found this outdoor rug to be mildew resistant. Another thing I really like is that it's very easy to clean.
All had to do was remove the dirt or disinfect the mat with the help of water and a spray bottle.
