Does it stop condensation coming up from underneath it effectively.I sleep in a swag on a stretcher
Paul tuplin - Wentworthville, NSW(3 years ago)
G'day Paul,
It can help, but it isn't bulletproof - theres a range of different variables, so it isnt always a straightforward answer. Ultimatley, the best defense against condensation is airflow. Check out our Podcast episode on how to manage condensation here.

Duarbility with objects on top1 answer
These mats sound great and I'm likely to get one. Are they intended to be used with things like camp tables and chairs on top of them? If the mat is on soft ground then chair legs might try to poke through and put some strain on the mat. Also, if a site doesn't have space for the full size to be used, I guess there's no issue folding part of the mat underneath.
Roger - Adelaide, SA (3 years ago)
G'day Roger,
These are designed as an annex mat, so it's reasonable to assume chairs and tables will be used on top. The mat is very strong, and chair legs are highly unlikely to poke through. My grandparents have been using theirs with a small table and a few chairs for at least 5 years with no issues. In terms of folding it up to suit the space, absolutely no issues whatsoever!

Sizing1 answer
What size mat would be appropriate for the Blackwolf Turbo 300?
Myles - Happy Valley, SA(3 years ago)
G'day Myles,
That depends on what you are wanting to cover. Generally, the C-Gear Mat is used for annex matting, instead of a groundsheet for under your tent. If you are wanting to use as annex matting, the approximate awning space of a Turbo 300 is 1.9 x 3.1m. Otherwise, you would decide what area or space you want to mat to cover, and choose a C-Gear mat size that is closest to that. Bear in mind that if you are not able to get the exact size, you may need to peg holes through the mat - just make sure the orientation is the same each time, so you're not adding loads of holes.
What size or 2mats maybe best for the darche270 awning?
Andrew - Jingellic, NSW(3 years ago)
G'day Andrew,
Ground mesh or mats are not a 'one size fits for one particular product' type scenario. When choosing what size or sizes to go with, we recommend measuring out how much ground you would like covered first, and then choose your size or combination of sizes based of that. Everyone's coverage requirements may be different, depending on how they use their awning, whether or not they have walls, etc. So the first step is to work out how much area you actually want to cover.

Does the mat bake in the sun?1 answer
Just wondering how hot the mat gets after a few hours of outback sun on it. Can you go barefoot on it comfortably, safe for children to sit on?
Steve - Cleveland, QLD(3 years ago)
G'day Steve,
It's not something we can say with any certainty without taking it out in those situations ourselves, as its the kind of info that comes from personal experience. The only thing I can say is that we've sold these for more than 5 years, and never had any feedback about them getting too hot to use. They're one of the most popular ground mats in the whole industry, including my grandparents having theirs for 7 years, and it's not something I've ever heard of as being an issue.
Lauren - Snowys(3 years ago)
Does it it matter which side faces up?1 answer
Hi, does it matter which side faces up when you use it or is it reversible?
Blake - Forster, NSW(3 years ago)
G'day Blake,
The C-Gear Multimat is fully reversible therefore can be used either green or grey side face up.

Best size for a Darche Safari 350?1 answer
Looking for a ground may big enough for our new Darche Safari 350 but would still like to be able to peg out vestibules etc. The tent measures 2.6*3.5 when open but there is obviously an awning area out the front that would be good to cover as well. Any idea if any of these will work? They all seem a bit narrow or too big...
Toby - Mooroobool(3 years ago)
G'day Toby,
Most tents don't have an exact compatible mesh footprint. When choosing a ground mesh for tents, you just need to work out the size that you'd like to have covered, and then choose a mat as close to that measurement as you like. If the ground mat requires pegs to go through, just make sure you set it up the same way every time so that you're pegging through the same holes. This is a very common outcome, so alot of people opt to use an Eyelet Kit to make the holes, which keeps everything looking neat and tidy. Hope that helps!
Lauren - Snowys(3 years ago)
Swag Pegs1 answer
Could eyelets be punched into the mat to allow the corner pegs of a swag to pass through without creating holes that may lead to a tear by simply pushing the pegs through it?
Paul - Cumberland Park, SA(4 years ago)
G'day Paul,
Great idea! You could absolutely install your own eyelets on the C-Gear Multi Camp Mat, we have a few options HERE and HERE...or if you're not able to do it yourself a Canvas/Awning specialist will be able to do it easily.

Darche 180 Eclipse Awning 1 answer
What size would fit the Darche 180 eclipse awning?
Sam - Gawler West, SA(4 years ago)
G'day Sam,
Due to the shape of the Eclipse 180 awning, you won't get an exact fit with the rectangular mat. The 2.4m x 6.0m will give cover you under the whole awning, and will give you some extra space at the edges too, so we'd recommend that size.
Leece - Snowys(4 years ago)
Nebula swag1 answer
I got a Darche Nebula swag from you guys which is great. Would the C-Gear mat 2.4 x 1.8 suit underneath?
Paddy - 6122(4 years ago)
G'day Paddy,
Glad to hear the Nebula is going well. The 2.4 x 1.8m CGear Mat is a good size for this set up. We'd just recommend keeping the set up the same each time, as your swags pegs may make a small hole through the layered mesh, so using the same hole each time would be ideal.
Leece - Snowys(4 years ago)
Size with Blackwolf 2401 answer
Hi there, what size CGear mat will go under the Blackwolf Turbo Lite 240? Thanks
Jess - Point Lonsdale(4 years ago)
G'day Jess,
The 2.4 x 4.3m version will probably be the best option for your Turbo Lite 240 tent. At this size the mat will go under the tent body, as well as the front awning area.

Steel pegs1 answer
Are there any steel pegs supplied with the C Gear mat?
Barry - Port Macquarie(6 years ago)
G'day Barry,
The C-Gear Multi Camp Mat isn't supplied with any pegs, so you're welcome to purchase any style that will suit the conditions you plan to use the mat in.

How does the mat handle getting wet?1 answer
Will puddles form underneath? Does it keep water from seeping through from wet grass?
Trent McGrath - Dee Why(6 years ago)
G'day Trent,
The C-Gear Multi Camp Mat will perform well in the wet, the water should drain through the mat and into the ground/grass. The only issue you might face would be if you're camped on poor draining ground, or in a puddle divert.
Leece - Snowys(6 years ago)
Do you have peg these mats?1 answer
Hi, do these mats need tension to be effective? Ie can you just lay them out or should they be pegged?
Laura - 2107(7 years ago)
G'day Laura,
I'm so sorry for the delay in answering your question, I've just looked into this and you don't need to tension the C-Gear Multimat in order for it to be effective (i.e. pegging it out). However, it will be the most effective when laid out flat - so that's something to keep in mind.

C-Gear Multi Camp Mat for Oztrail Ultimate All Weather Queen Stretcher1 answer
Hi there,
I was just wondering if the fly sheet of the Oztrail Ultimate All Weather Queen Stretcher would be able to be pegged out properly over the edges of the C-Gear 2.4 x 1.8 m Multi Camp Mat without poking holes into it?
Cheers
Andrew - Kinross(7 years ago)
G'day Andrew,
I've just crunched the numbers for you and you should have no issues at all with using the 2.4 x 1.8m C-Gear Multi Camp Mat underneath the Oztrail Ultimate All Weather Stretcher without piercing it at all with the pegs.

Eddy - Exeter(7 years ago)
G'day Eddy,
Unfortunately, the C-Gear Multi Camp Mat doesn't come with a carry bag but I'm sure you'll be able to find a canvas carry bag to suit here.
Ben - Snowys(7 years ago)
G'day Peter,
My bad! You're 100% correct, they do have a carry bag. It's made of the same mesh as the groundsheet, hence my confusion. Just to confirm, they do indeed have a carry bag.
Ben - Snowys(7 years ago)
Packed dimensions seem quite large1 answer
Is there any reason why this product couldn't be folded and rolled and stored in the same way as the Black Wolf Turbo 240 groundsheet? (Looking for something similar to the Turbo version for the Turbo's extanda awning and need it to pack down small.)
Jude - Melbourne(7 years ago)
G'day Jude,
Great question. There's no reason why you can't roll or fold it however you want to make it work for you.

What size CGear Mat1 answer
If annexe is 5.2m for example, would you extend longer out of the annexe as some sites you're unable to peg down due to slab. If I purchased a longer one would the water seep through into Annexe when raining?
Caroline - Brisbane(7 years ago)
G'day Caroline,
It is really difficult to advise you on which size CGear mat to buy, it really requires you determining the size that best fits your specific application. As for the water ingress, the mat will not wick water towards the centre, so your annexe area should stay nice and dry.
Troy - Snowys(7 years ago)
What size CG Gear Multimat to Buy?1 answer
Have Jayco Silverline 21.65ft slide out caravan. What size CG Gear Multimat should I purchase?
Karen - West Lakes SA(8 years ago)
Hi Karen,
I guess if you want to park your caravan on top of the mat and have a bit of overhang you could choose the 2.4x7.5m but if you want it to include a picnic area under an awning, perhaps the larger size of 3.05x3.05m might be best.
Feel free to give us a call to discuss if you need. Cheers!

Multi/Sand Mats1 answer
Are the multi mats the same as the quicksand sand mats? I've seen other brands carry on about sand going through the mats but to tell you the truth it basically just sits on the top. Yes after heaps of brushing and shaking it goes through but it is easier to lift, shake it off and put the mat down again.
Tony - Vic(8 years ago)
G'day Tony,Â
I can see why you'd be a little bit sceptical, but quite honestly, this product does exactly what it says it's supposed to do - dirt and sand will fall straight through this mat. We've had a lot of positive feedback from other customers, so it's a product that we really stand by.Â
C-Gear have made a pretty good video which you can check out here which shows their Multi Camp Mat in action, which might be helpful for you. Failing that there are heaps of user generated reviews and videos out there (not made by C-Gear) which show how this product work as well.Â

Multi Camp Mat for Outdoor Connection Brampton Tent1 answer
Hi, which size mat is more suited for the Brampton Tent, please.
Catherine - Melton(9 years ago)
None of these will be an exact fit sorry Catherine. With the Brampton measuring 6.0 metres in length and 2.8 metres in width, I would recommend either the 2.4 x 7.5 metre mat which will be narrow on the sides but give you coverage under the end awning, or two of the 3.05 x 3.05 m mats which will give you coverage length-ways, nothing under the end awning but a little extra on the sides.
Ben - Snowys(9 years ago)
can it be used for under a tent?2 answers
Hi, your description says that this can be used as a ground sheet. Does this mean it can be used under a tent like a tarp? Or would a tarp be better?
Jane - ,(9 years ago)
Sure can Jane, there are no defining parameters around what should and shouldn't be used under a tent, as long as it gives the tent floor some protection then it's doing its job. That being said, the C-Gear mats are an expensive way to do this, you get the most out of these by laying them as a floor in the living space of your campsite so they provide a relatively dirt free surface to relax on. A basic tarp is quite a cheap way of providing protection for your tent floor, and a combination of one of these as well as a C-Gear multi-mat would be a good solution.
Ben - Snowys(9 years ago)
G'day Jane,
The C-Gear mat should be able to help with smaller prickles and burrs however we're not too sure how they would go with bigger 3 corner jacks etc. Theoretically you should be ok in most conditions though as the mats have the Dual Layer Woven design.
Leece - Snowys(6 years ago)
Why are your measurements around the other way - see details. 1 answer
I am wanting to purchase a CGear mat for our caravan. We want the 5.2mtr x 2.4mtr for our caravan annexe. Other suppliers have theirs listed as 5.2m long x 2.4m wide whereas yours are listed as 2.4m long x 5.2m wide. What's the difference?

This C-Gear multi mat photo looks different to other sellers which has reinforced edge with brass eyelets.1 answer
Hi,
The photo of C-Gear multi mat on your website looks different to the one from other sellers which has reinforced edges with brass eyelets. Are they the same product or is this old version of it?
Thanks,

Ben - BAYSWATER NORTH, VIC(9 years ago)
You're right Ben, he images we have must be old, thanks for the pickup. Our stock is current and has reinforced edges with 'D' eyelets all round. Sorry for the confusion, I'll update our images asap.

Are all C Gear mats reversible? ie Green one side, grey the other?3 answers
Robert - KERSBROOK, SA(10 years ago)
Hi Robert, they are all the same material, and can be used either way up. The only difference is the size.
Ben - Snowys(10 years ago)
Thanks for that Ben. Unfortunately, you have not answered my question. Are all your Cgear mats green on one side and grey on the other? The reason I ask is that in the past I have had one that was green on both sides and I want to make sure that you do not supply me with one of those!
Robert - Kersbrook(10 years ago)
Sorry Robert, I have done a spot check on our stock, and it appears that all our CGear mats are green on one side and grey on the other, I can't remember them being different. Feel free to give us a call once your order is placed and we can double check for you before your mat is dispatched.
