Any recommendations on mats? I have looked around but most of the ones I have found in local stores tend to be rather small.

My next thought was to look into kitchen mats as line cooks tend to stand for long periods of time.

I have the $60 one from Amazon, a step down from what Wirecutter recommends, but I think I will upgrade. I can generally do 4-5 hours standing with this: http://www.amazon.com/Imprint-Comfort-Nantucket-20-Inch-Cinn...


I tested many of the anti-fatigue mats, but personally prefer the "Imprint CumulusPro Commercial Grade". It's heaven on your feet, and it makes a huge difference once you start standing 6+ hours a day.

Unfortunately, the CumulusPro is out of stock everywhere, but I found you could order it online at a significant discount on Costco ($69 vs $115). Here's the link.

Based on an HN recommendation I got one of these: http://www.americanfloormats.com/rejuvenator-anti-fatigue-ma... . Expensive but also very good.


I've been happy with this mat, often standing >5h per day.

Yeah, a restaurant style mat is pretty much all you need.
