A good product
Even though I do not do yoga, I wanted a mat to use in other exercise classes such as barre and high intensity interval training. In the past I had used public mats provided by a facility and contracted a skin infection. In order to avoid a repeat of that experience, I bought my own mat. According to the ad, the mat is made from PVC and is non-toxic. Warning was given regarding a smell emanating from the mat when it is first unrolled, but I did not notice any odor at all. This mat is longer than most offering extra length to fold under for cushioning the head if needed. I have plenty of length to drape over or on top of a bench when the workout requires, and actually it is sufficiently long enough that it could be doubled on top of the bench if desired. Both sides of the mat are textured with excellent traction gripping the floor preventing slipping and sliding so there is no worry about injury in that way. There has been no skin irritation, chafing, or rubbing during or after using the mat. After each use I have wiped it down with disinfectant wipes the gym provides, rolled it up, and secured it with the strap (purchased separately) until the next class; it is lightweight and easy to carry with the strap. After almost a year of use at least 4-5 times per week, this durable mat still looks and feels like new. I have been quite satisfied with this mat and I would buy this product again if I ever need another mat.Top 3 Likes:-Long, double sided, textured preventing slipping-Durable, sturdy-Easy to roll up and strapTop 3 Dislikes:-Concern if worn spots develop, it may get slippery-Only 1!

Great mat for tall people!
I love the extra length so my head and feet can remain on the mat. The extra width is not enough that people think you are taking up too much space in class, but adds just enough extra for my broad-shouldered hubby. Thickness is fine, knees feel comfy and the mat is not too thick when rolled up. We have only used our mats for about 2 months – 3-4x/week – but the quality appears to be good. No problems or damage notes so far. It does make some noise when unrolling – maybe I need to wait a few more minutes after wiping it down after each class before I roll it back up. I did wash the mats before we used them the first time, as recommended by other reviewers. No lingering odor or excess slipperiness. It does get a bit slippery IF my hands get sweaty. A yoga towel quickly fixes that. Overall very happy with these mats!

Good lasting value and quality for price, no problems with too much slip or too much stick.
I ordered the Meadow design. A note to the perceptive: The image on Amazon implies that this item is bicolor on both sides. That is an editing mistake, as the original image does not show the entire item. It is one color on either side, as described.I have owned one mat from Gaiam before this one, and it has been in irregular use for 2-3 years now by two different people. By irregular, I mean 2-3 times a week on average. The old mat has no signs of damage, does not slip on the ground, nor do my hands or feet slip when in a posture. The new mat is just as good, and I imagine it to hold out throughout the years just as well. A good lasting value for the cheap price. Of course, natural rubber mats would definitely be superior to this type. Unfortunately (as far as I know), Gaiam does not offer mats in any different lengths. I am 5’11 and would have liked a mat that could fit my entire body when laying down. But this design is very relaxing to me, and makes me pretty happy when I do yoga on it. Gaiam does offer a variety of thicknesses, but not for every design. A thicker mat may be appropriate for you if you are looking for more support and comfort, and may also help in reducing any slip…which I will move on to.I see lots of comments here about people slipping. Different mats will have qualities and one must adapt. If you are slipping, you are likely sweating (even the tiniest bit of sweat on your hands can have an effect) or are not distributing your body weight appropriately in certain postures. For the former, you can use different products for that (gripping gloves, chalk, different kinds of mats, or a yoga towel, even). For the latter, like mentioned before, you must adapt. I have experienced a very negligible slide under my hands when in downward dog in the past, but I have comfortably adjusted that posture to maintain steady on the mat. I have not noticed any moments where I felt that this mat was unsafe or unfit for a particular posture. I also had no problems with the mat being too sticky and becoming damaged from that.Overall, I recommend this product to anyone looking for a standard yoga mat.

chemically smell feel lingers a long while
Negatives: cheap chemical smell and greasy feel even after wash/dry (though sticky enough to make feet noise); kind of heavy. Positives: nice and roomy with extra width and length; color (2 tone blue) are fine.Suspect as with so many products this brand was bought out, and then the product’s quality plummeted. Of course I have no idea, but the price (31$) indicates low quality, leaky materials. I always wash my hands and try to shower after using this product. Hopefully it will break in and stop emitting, shedding substance.

Lastest a long time!
My unit is over 6 years old and still going strong. Have used it for weekly yoga, working on the truck, laying on the ground in random places and other crazy things. I have put this mat through its paces and it refuses to give up! Lightweight and thin make it easy to travel with and give you that floor feeling.
