Its rubberized underside ensures a non-slip grip on various table surfaces, while the included carry bag makes it easy to roll up and transport. Designed for serious Riichi and traditional Mahjong players, this mat enhances tile organization and gameplay precision with a bold teal color that breaks the mold of standard game mats. ## Description The Junk mat is made of a tough woven fabric on a synthetic cushion base, similar to the material used to make wet suits. It makes for a great playing surface, nicely secured by the black frame, robust and yet relatively light. The plastic frame has recesses where score sticks can be deposited during play. Two of the frame sides can be detached and the mat and frame can be easily rolled up and put away in the bag that comes with the mat. Review: Must-have for die-hard players without a real mahjong table - I play a lot of Riichi mahjong and have used a plain border-less mat in the past. This junk mat is a vast improvement because I can easily store and sort my tenbo/bones and dice with this. Also it's great having borders around the mat because it prevents tiles from falling off when shuffling. The border makes it easier to build straight walls and organize your hand. During gameplay I like melding sets and actually having a solid corner to place them in to. I was concerned the mat would crease and fold easily during gameplay but this is not the case. The underside of the mat is a rubber grip and sticks well to a clean glass playing surface. I would imagine it would be okay with plastic or wood surfaces too but can't say for sure. It's not easy to slide the mat around when there are tiles on it so place it in a good position prior to playing. This isn't a huge setback however, and really speaks to the good grip underneath the mat. I like the color of the mat. It's not a faded dull color or typical green poker table color. I find it more teal-colored and very bold. It looks nice with my yellow-backed tiles. It easily fits 4 walls of 17x2 tiles that are sized 25mm, which I believe is a typical small Japanese Riichi tile size. This is the set I primarily use this junk mat with. I have a larger Chinese mahjong set with 40mm tiles. It's very tight with the large tiles but doable. You could always get weird with it and do 3 walls of 14 stacked 3 high in a triangle pattern & set aside 10 tiles for the deadwall - which helps with space but is far from traditional. If you're concerned with space I personally wouldn't consider using this with tiles over 36mm. I have an American mahjong set that I'm not really into these days but of course you can use this for American mahjong, though there are more tiles involved in American mahjong. One thing to note is if you play on a large table and/or one that isn't square shaped, you may have 1 or possibly 2 players who have to reach a bit to play when playing with 4 players. I play on a rectangular table just a little wider than the mat's size but twice as long. With 2 or 3 players there's no problem. With 4 someone has to reach, npi. The price on this is a bit high though I suspect it's due to it being a Japanese import. My mahjong set didn't cost much more than this but I get good use out of this junk mat so for me it's worth the ~$42 I paid. Prime shipping got it to me in 2 days so there's a warehouse somewhere in the U.S. that already has these shipped in from Japan at the time of reviewing 3/2016. Review: Perfect if you have tiles already - Fantastic product. If you don't already have tiles though you should get the AMOS set that comes with them ## Features - Dimensions: 27" x 27" (69cm x 69cm) - Weight: 2lb 3oz (1.1 kg) ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0017KHW3A | | Age Range Description | Infant | | Best Sellers Rank | #391,946 in Toys & Games ( See Top 100 in Toys & Games ) #758 in Game Mats & Boards | | Brand Name | Junk Mat | | Color | Black | | Container Type | Bag | | Customer Reviews | 4.3 4.3 out of 5 stars (131) | | Educational Objective | Develop cognitive skills (problem-solving, critical thinking, concentration) and foster social skills and cultural understanding | | Grenre | Game Mats & Boards | | Included Components | Black Frame, Bag | | Is Assembly Required | No | | Item Dimensions | 27.17 x 27.17 x 0.79 inches | | Item Dimensions L x W | 27"L x 27"W | | Item Type Name | Tile-Based Game | | Item Weight | 1.1 Kilograms | | Language | Japanese | | Manufacturer | Taiyo Chemicals | | Manufacturer Maximum Age (MONTHS) | 12.0 | | Manufacturer Part Number | 3150003JUNKMAT | | Material Type | Plastic | | Model Name | \u30b8\u30e3\u30f3\u30af\u30de\u30c3\u30c8 | | Model Number | γ‚Έγƒ£γƒ³γ‚―γƒžγƒƒγƒˆ | | Model Year | 2000 | | Number of Items | 1 | | Number of Players | 4 | | Operation Mode | Manual | | Other Special Features of the Product | Unique Material and Score Stick Recesses | | Package Quantity | 1 | | Product Style | Japanese | | Set Name | Mahjong | | Size | 27" x 27" (69cm x 69cm) | | Theme | Chinese | | Unit Count | 1 Count | ## Images ![Mahjong Mat - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71LERFiF6UL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Must-have for die-hard players without a real mahjong table *by M***. on March 17, 2016* I play a lot of Riichi mahjong and have used a plain border-less mat in the past.

If you don't already have tiles though you should get the AMOS set that comes with them ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A Must-Have for Riichi Mahjong Enthusiasts! *by D***γ‚“ on October 31, 2023* As an avid Riichi Mahjong player, I was thrilled to discover the Mahjong Junk Mat. What makes it even more exciting is that it is manufactured by TAIYO GIKEN, the Japanese maker of the best-selling Japanese domestic mahjong products branded as β€œAmos" from mahjong tiles to automatic mahjong tables. Setting up the mat is a breeze, and it doesn’t even come with an instruction manual. The quality is simply spectacular, and with proper care, it doesn't wrinkle. The mat fits perfectly on regular tables and even smaller surfaces like coffee tables and heated tables (Kotatsu). Overall, I would highly recommend the Mahjong Junk Mat to anyone who wants to enhance their Riichi Mahjong experience. It's a must-have for all enthusiasts. ## Frequently Bought Together - Mahjong mat junk mat (japan import) - Yellow Mountain Imports Japanese Riichi Mahjong Set - White and Yellow Standard Size Tiles - with East Wind Tile and Black Vinyl Case - Riichi Mahjong: The Ultimate Guide to the Japanese Game Taking the World By Storm --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.at/products/2486089-mahjong-mat](https://www.desertcart.at/products/2486089-mahjong-mat) --- *Product available on Desertcart Austria* *Store origin: AT* *Last updated: 2026-04-25*
