Nice

It is good quality. Very grippy. You will not slip on this. Maybe a little less grippy would be good too. I love the color and how it is double sided. The thickness is perfect.

A Great Mat Worth the Price

Yoga mats are one of those items where the principle "Don't throw good money after bad" applies. Cheap yoga mats are toxic, they don't last long, they stretch, they lose their grip quickly, and many many of them are toxic. With yoga mats, spend the money and get the best you can.The last yoga mat I had which was this good was from Prana, at was even more expensive, and I bought it fourteen years ago. The Manduka feels just as good as the Prana, is made from similar materials, and I expect it'll last at least a decade. I'm happy with this one.

Slippery but good value

Good mat for the price but a little slippery. I’ve used it daily for about a month now and overall have enjoyed using it. Good for beginners.Pros:- good support- easy to clean and carry- no weird smellCons:- slippery; can’t do down dog without sliding- packaging not good for amazon; packaging doesn’t use plastic but leaves mat exposed. Mine came with a scratch on it that probably came from a pallet knife

Love!

Love this mat! It’s the perfect thickness and I love the colors. It grips well to our wood floor. I saw other reviews mentioning that it arrived dirty, but mine did not. I also think the price was decent for it.

No Smell - woohoo!

I was hesitant to buy another yoga mat because do many smelled terrible. Thankfully that is not the case with this one. I did not notice any odor, and I'm very sensitive to them. The yoga mat is great. My only complaint is I can't get into the habit of using it regularly haha

No traction when sweaty

I was so excited for this mat and was honestly disappointed. I have been wanting to invest in a good mat and after doing lots of research decided on a manduka mat. I ended up opting for the begin mat after reading lots of great reviews and comparing it to others. I love the mat but the second I start sweating there is no traction and I’m slipping all over. The only logical next step would be to purchase the towel as well but that is about the same price as the mat itself. I am definitely wishing I invested in one of the pro mats instead

***Slippery; not suited for vigorous yoga, please read***

I purchased this mat because I wanted something light and readily available to me as I planned on using it in the studio. Also, I enjoy being outdoors and I thought this would serve me some purpose for outdoor yoga. Wrong. This mat is very slippery in down dog which seems to be common in the reviews. That is not an exaggeration and you will slip plenty. Aside from it being so slippery, it’s a great mat and made very well. However, I would not recommend this mat for Vinyasa, power, or hot yoga because you will ship and you will have a miserable time in class.If you’re looking for a budget mat, there are plenty of other options and I would not recommend this mat at all. If you’ve already ordered it and don’t plan on returning it, I find that this mat is great for yin and restorative yoga classes. I’ve also used this mat for Pilates and it gets the job done alright. I’ve decided on the 3/5 star rating only because I’ve managed to find some use for this mat and I practice yin quite often.Again, if you plan on doing Vinyasa, power, or hot yoga, do not buy this mat because you will be slipping left and right with the tiniest amount of sweat. If you’re looking for a budget mat, do not buy. I would only recommend using this mat for restorative and yin yoga, and mat Pilates. It’s honestly a very beautiful mat and well made, but it’s just not good. I hope this helps.
