"Great Cushioning" 2005-07-22
By M. Han
I am use to doing abs work and pilates on the carpet, but my carpeting did not have enough padding so I decided to order an exercise mat. I a very please with my order. I noticed the difference right away. The cushioning it gives my lower back is awesome.
"LOVE IT!!!" 2006-01-06
By Petrina (California)
I take a Pilates/conditioning class and I bought the mat to have one of my own instead of using a 'community gym' one. I love the way that it never slips when doing any sort of workout and the feeling of it is just wonderful!! I highly suggest you try this mat--it even comes with it's own velcro straps--others make you buy them.
"Good Usable Mat" 2007-12-21
By Yoga Dude (Utah)
I bought this mat for my Yoga class. I've found it quite usable for that purpose. It's easy to unfurl and easy to roll up. It has its own velcro straps. The only annoying thing I've found is that curls slightly on the back end, but always straightens out when I lay it flat. I injured my knee in an accident along the way, and the extra padding with this mat has allowed me to continue doing Yoga. That has been a big plus. I noticed after a year there was a slight slippage in the mat when I was doing lunge positions. Also, I found that it was difficult to do balance positions, because of the extra thickness. As such, I usually just step off the mat for the balance poses. On the whole, I'd give this mat a 5 star rating. Comfortable, durable, easy to use.
"Excellent exercise mat" 2007-12-21

This is a very nice exercise mat. It is thick and soft foam that seems like it will hold up well. The built in velcro and straps make it easy to put away neatly. I use it to do pushups, situps, etc. and it really makes it more enjoyable than it was with my old exercise mat (which was really intended for yoga and was kind of thin).

We find it to be a great mat.
- Great size, maybe just a bit narrow
- Rolls up to a nice size for storing
- Nice thickness but not too thick for exercise
- Ours has never had a smell
For that price it was a bargain!
