Frequently Asked Questions

What makes your Playroom unique?

Our Playroom is a complete, furniture-grade playroom set designed for safety and made to look beautiful in your home.

It includes the Mat and the Pen—a matching set engineered to fit seamlessly together using premium materials, creating a stable, gap-minimized, and secure play space that supports active movement while helping reduce slips, shifting, and pinch points.

Designed for real life, the Playroom is easy to set up, easy to clean, and made to blend effortlessly into your living space—so it works just as well for peace of mind as it does for your home’s aesthetic.

Why does Matty’s Room cost more than a typical playpen?

Matty’s Room Playroom is a spacious 5x7 ft Mat + Pen set, designed to work as a set. While there are other premium mats on the market and plenty of budget pens, the difference is that we took the entire setup to another level: a matching, safety-first, furniture-grade Mat and Pen that work together in your main living space.

Matty’s Room was created by parents who wanted a play space that felt safe, sturdy, and beautiful in the middle of everyday life. We were frustrated by low-quality, questionable-safety options, so we set out to create a Playroom that’s both truly safe and beautiful enough to live in your main space - a setup that feels like part of your home. We chose to prioritize safety, quality materials, and long-term durability instead of cutting corners just to get the price down. That’s how the Playroom was born: a “buy once, use for years” setup, even for a second child.

We’re confident that when you see Matty’s Room in person and compare it to other options, you’ll notice a real difference in the quality, thoughtfulness of design, and how it feels in your home. While the Playroom is designed as a complete Pen + Mat setup, we know not every family needs the full configuration. You can also purchase the Pen or the Mat on their own - the exact same components used in the full Playroom, just available separately if you only need one piece.

Is your Playroom safe?

Yes! Our products meet and exceed all applicable safety standards, including CPSIA and ASTM, and are rigorously tested to ensure peace of mind. We proudly keep our products free from harmful chemicals, including BPAs, phthalates, lead, cadmium, and other toxins, so children can play, crawl, and explore safely—every single day.

Beyond certifications, our designs incorporate thoughtful, child-first engineering. Safety Stoppies™—our anti-skid silicone grippy bottom on the Pen—help keep the Pen securely in place and reduce unwanted movement during active play. Our gap-minimizing Playroom set is intentionally designed to reduce pinch points, while the gapless mat surface creates a smooth, continuous play area for crawling, rolling, and early steps.

For added security, our system features a 3-step single-hand locking mechanism—easy for caregivers to operate, yet intentionally engineered to be impossible for little ones to unlock on their own.

Material safety is just as important to us. Our playmats are made with glue-free foam construction to eliminate exposure to harsh adhesives, wrapped in premium vegan leather that’s durable, easy to clean, and gentle on skin. The playpen are made with food-grade HDPE, the same material trusted for food containers, ensuring strength without compromising safety.

Can I buy the Pen or the Mat on its own?

Yes! While we designed the Playroom as a complete matching set (Pen + Mat), you can absolutely purchase the Pen or the Mat separately. This is great for families who just want the Pen or the Mat on its own without the full Playroom setup.

If you’re mixing our Pen or Mat with other brands’ products, please make sure the overall setup is safe - no gaps where little limbs or heads could get stuck, a firm and stable surface underneath, and no items that could create suffocation or entrapment risks. Your child’s safety always comes first. 💛

Is the Playroom difficult to assemble?

Not at all! The Playroom is quick to set-up. The Pen takes around 10 minutes, requires no tools, and can be assembled by one person. The Mat needs no assembly— simply unfold and place it inside the playpen to complete the Playroom!

Is shipping included? What is the ship time?

Yes! We provide free shipping to all 48 contiguous US states, and your order will typically arrive within 4-7 business days.
