Gaiam Essentials 1/4" Thin (6mm) Yoga & Pilates, Fitness & Exercise Mat with Easy-Cinch Carrier Strap Cusion Support For Fitness and Gym Workouts

Definitely needs to be aired out for at least 24h after first unpacking & unrolling, as the fresh chemical smell is STRONG - will need to leave in a well ventilated room or outside! It's a good size, exactly as stated, which is perfect for my frame without feeling too big or small. It's not super bulky, but it's still thick enough to protect me from the hardwood floor I stretch on. Love the color! Carry strap is pretty cheap, it's just a fabric strap with a slider - if it's the difference between this item and a different one, honestly making your own strap could be better. But it feels nice and relaxing and I'm not worried about it rolling away! Love the mat, would get again if I needed a spare.

Lightweight and suitable stickiness too. Simple mat but well made and at a great price.

This is my only yoga mat at the moment. I’ve been using it consistently for over a year now for all of my hot yoga and Pilates classes, and it has been great. Always feel comfortable in wrist/hand heavy positions, so I’d say it’s a good thickness. I do use it with a yoga towel, it gets slippery when I sweat and I don’t enjoy having to reposition myself due to slipping out of a pose. Again, over a year of usage in heated classes so I’d say good quality! I might buy a second for when friends tag along to classes with me.

The intention was to buy an inexpensive mat for my dog to navigate the slippery floors. I was really surprised by the quality so I've used this for my workout. It's thick, rolls up easily and feels durable. The only downside is that when you're on floor with your nose to the mat, the chemical smell is a bit overpowering. I'm guessing it will dissipate over time. Really like the color as well.

High quality 1/4" thick exercise mat

Soft, comfortable, non-slippery, is thick enough and portable. It is easy to clean and affordable too.

Suits my needs. Great price. Not too thin. Easy to carry.

This is the best yoga mat that I’ve used; and that’s including the ones at the gym. The gym yoga mats are usually the best quality, but this one beats those. It has amazing grip, durability, cushion and I feel very confident on it. I can do all of my balance poses on it and feel confident that I won’t slip or fall. I can hold down dog on it for a longer period of time. You can transition from pose to pose flawlessly by using this mat. It’s seriously that good. My only concern is ordering other colors because the material doesn’t say the same in the details. The one I ordered says “B… Rubber”. That’s the one you want to get.
