a fine mat for the price

The yoga mat was exactly as described. It is thick and sufficiently large. Like any mat, as you move into some poses, your feet squeak a little. There is a small blemish on the bottom but who cares as that is the side facing the floor. The strap is cleverly designed and has some elasticity that makes it easy to use. I expect the mat to last well. By the way, of course the ends curl when you first unfold the mat. Consider after each use, roll the mat so the side you lay on is exposed. thiis way the curling will be decreased when you begin a new yoga session.

Nice Yoga Mat

I finally caved and bought a "real" yoga mat after moving into a house with hardwood floors (was previously on carpet so I just went with the flow). I didn't want to spend an arm and a leg for something I was going to be abusing for yoga and workouts... and from my search I saw some mats for quite a high price. I'm glad I went with this one because not only is the extra thickness good on my hands (and knees, feet, back, etc) but after about a month of abuse it's still holding strong. I did experience a strange smell from the mat when I first received it - however, after letting it air out a bit the smell went away.

Highly Recommended

Having never had a yoga mat before, I was not sure what to expect. I definitely wasn't sure how much good it would do with my plus size body. I am so pleased with it, I am getting one for my husband. It provides an amazing amount of cushion, is long enough for my entire length and then some. New to yoga, I feel the width helps guide me spatially. The most surprising thing though was that having accidentally exposed it to a rain storm, it held up just fine. I woke to find it on my deck with water on top and not soaked in. Not that I plan on doing hot yoga, but that gives me confidence this mat could handle the sweat if I did.

Amazing for ab workouts.

I'm not into yoga so I'm not sure if this is a good mat for that. BUT, it's an awesome mat for doing any other stretches or exercises on the ground. I was previously using a 1/8inch think yoga mat and could hardly get through a set without back pain. I highly reccommend this mat to anyone doing crunches or stretching.

The Sivan Health and Fitness Extra Thick Yoga Mat was everything I expected it to be and.. a little bit more. I've used it in your everyday yoga studios, at home, the Santa Monica Pier (Roga!!) and.. for camping... YES! Camping! It served its purpose as a sleep mat, though, I wouldn't necessarily recommend it used for that. But, the mat proved itself thick enough to soften up the solidified ground beneath it, for sure! It's lightweight and a removable strap-like holder and attached handle come along with it which is perfect for those on the go. I'd highly recommend this to the novice or pro yogi alike!

Yoga Mat Love

I Love this Yoga mat!! It is thick enough to buffer the firmness of any surface, and making it very easy on knees and joints. The carry strap makes very easy to wrap it up and go... I would definitely recommend this mat for people with knee and joint issues especially. The color is also very pretty. I would purchase this mat again for myself, and would even buy it as a gift for someone else. 5 Stars!!

Durable, quality mat

This mat is great, nice and thick, and the travel strap thing works great. I use the mat on a carpet doing workout videos in my living room, for about a half hour a day and that time I am on the mat, including jumping, etc. The mat has held its shape and not thinned with a couple of months of use now. The color (teal) is great too. I would definitely recommend.

The mats are a good thickness (not too thick

PRODUCT REVIEW I ordered a purple and black yoga mat (for me and my wife) and, although the colors are different, the mats are exactly the same. The mats are a good thickness (not too thick, not too thin) and are very comfortable. I am a 250 lb male and the mat handles my body and weight just fine. The surface is very non-slip and it makes it very easy to hold poses for a length of time (because your feet don't slide everywhere). Overall, I'm very satisfied with the mat. I read a couple reviews that stated the mat had a very strong, odd smell once it was opened and taken out of the original packaging – I have to agree. It was definitely a strong smell. However, it went away within about an hour so don't be deterred from ordering these mats if you're worried about a smell. SELLER REVIEW I received my package just a few days after I placed my order. Both items I ordered were brand new and still in their original packaging. Everything was neatly and safely packed, and it all arrived in perfect condition. I am very happy with my experience.

Comfortable!

This was extremely comfortable to use. I purchased this so I could start doing yoga in my home, and was happy to see that it did not slide around whatsoever, even on my carpet. It is a little more bulky than I expected, but that was just my expectations being used to other yoga mats that I've seen. This is substantially thicker than others I've seen in stores, but is also substantially more comfortable.

This yoga mat is super squishy! I know some people don't really like that, but for me, I liked having the extra foam between me and the foam. Sometimes when I'm laying down for a yoga pose, my back bone hurts because the yoga mat is too thin and its as if I'm laying down on the floor. But with this particular mat, I have the extra cushion for support. Moreover, I like that it comes with the string to keep the mat stay closed up and makes it easier to carry around. And of course, I love the color.
