Great price for a beginners or occasional use mat May 26, 2010
By Nicholas Hanssens
"qwidjibo22"
I ordered 10 of these mats to supply a new yoga class I'm teaching.
On the whole, they are perfectly reasonable mats for occasional use. They had a mild rubber smell, which wore off quickly. They provide a good degree of padding and reasonable slip resistance. Certainly doesn't compete with a higher end jade or manduka mat, but this is a great price point for something that doesn't have any big problems.
The extra length is a big bonus for taller practitioners and surprising to find at this price.
They provide a little more padding/springiness than I might recommend for an intermediate or advanced practitioner. If you practice frequently, it is probably worth splurging on something more specialized.
If you tend to sweat heavily and/or practice in a hot room, you'll probably need a towel or a practice rug to throw on top of it.

Not a bad mat Jun 09, 2008
By Kim Manuel
I like the length and comfort. The only thing is it lost it's stickiness. My hands slip when doing downward facing dog.

 Love It! May 02, 2010
By J. Mahr
Since I am 5'11", I LOVED that this mat was extra long. I can finally fit all the way on the mat and not be hanging off of one end! I know many people said it was smelly or slippery, but I did not have that problem. I followed the instructions (unroll the mat and let it air out, then wipe it down) and didn't have any smell or "slippage." I really do like this mat. I can see how some do not like the thickness, but I think that is all in what you prefer (I like the extra cushion it provides).

great mat for price Nov 17, 2009

I really love my mats (yes, I have more than 1) and recommend my friends to purchase this one. Good long length, bright happy colors,and you cannot beat the price...why spent a large chunk of change on something that either you get bored with using, gouge out tiny holes with your toenails as you transition from up-dog to down-dog, and with something that after a certain amount of time, you just got to replace for germs, dirt, sweat, and everyday crud? I like that I got good quality, variety colors, thick, long yoga mats that (for the price) cannot be beat!

 Boooooo! May 20, 2010
By newask
This mat sucks. Thick sure, but it has no stickyness to it. I don't even do hot yoga, but it is warm in the room and I was sliding ALL over it. I had to put towels down. Also, it's thickness is weird. It kind of molds to your hands and feet so when you try to reposition, you sink back into where you were. This mat is cheap for a reason. Beware.
