Great amount of cushion
I purchased this for outside workouts often done on concrete or asphalt. It has excellent durability and cushion for hands/back/elbows/etc when doing calisthenics. It’s a thick, comfortable mat for people with sharp joints. Had one for over a year with heavy use and it’s still working great. The roll is pretty tight so it tends to roll up partway on its own; it helps to anchor the bottom of the mat with something to prevent that during workouts. The straps are easy to put on and provides a handle that makes it very convenient to transport.

I bought this for my pilates class and it works great! It’s thick and comfortable. I got it in red and it’s pretty. Overall I’m happy with this purchase.

Very comfortable!
I got this product last week! Packaging came very nicely. It comes with a black Velcro strap so it stays rolled up nice and tight. The plastic smell really got to me when I first opened it up. But now that itâs been out, the smell is gone. Itâs longer than me and Iâm 5 ft. 5 in. so thatâs nice that my whole body fits when Iâm doing pelvic exercises. Itâs nice and thick so it exudes comfortability when lying on it. Overall great product for a great price! I gave it 4 stars only because of the initial smell.

Thick yoga mat
This is a great yoga mat. It is very thick which I love for practicing yoga. It causes no pain to hands and knees. The color is a nice dark green. The only thing to improve is the handles slip right off and you cannot really wear it on your shoulder.

Firm but comfortable
The only main negative thing Iâve seen on my mat is the imprints in my photo from where the strap was holding in for a very long time which is on both sides, but this doesnât particularly bother me, and itâs just on the very ends of the mat.
The mat itself is a good length for me, and while it is pretty firm, it is much more comfortable than my floor. I tend to get sweaty hands, and even through a few uses I donât find myself slipping at all, and the mat stays in place.
I know some people were complaining about a smell, but mine hardly smells at all. It does have a rubber smell to it which makes sense, but I only notice it if my face is on or just above the mat, and itâs not super unpleasant and doesnât bother me. I wouldnât say the strap itself is necessarily comfortable if youâre gonna sling it over your shoulder because itâs standard Velcro, but it is definitely lightweight and easy to carry, and it doesnât take up much space when rolled up.
This is my first yoga mat as Iâve just started, so I do have nothing to compare it to, but I am very happy with my purchase. When this one wears out I am likely to buy from this brand again.

The Valuable Opinion –
Unbeatable Durability and Comfort
The Gaiam Essentials Thick Yoga Mat has proven itself to be the epitome of reliability, earning a solid 5-star rating in my book.
Unless you’re in the market for a yoga mat to serve as a status symbol or you happen to have some mysterious “brand loyalty” (whatever that is, you weirdo), look no further â this mat delivers unparalleled value for your money. It’s not just a basic yoga mat; it’s a steadfast companion that has been by my side for three years and still looks as good as new, with only minor wear and tear.
The thickness of the mat provides an exceptional level of comfort during workouts, making every yoga session a joy. The material is not only resilient but also easy to clean, ensuring that it maintains its pristine appearance over time.
The Easy-Cinch Yoga Mat Carrier Strap is a thoughtful addition, making it convenient to transport the mat wherever your fitness journey takes you. It’s a testament to Gaiam’s commitment to practicality and user convenience.
From downward dogs to intense workouts, this mat has proven its durability through it all. Unlike other mats that show signs of wear after a short period, the Gaiam Essentials Thick Yoga Mat stands as a testament to quality craftsmanship.
Additionally, I love the built-in strap to quickly roll up and store the mat away – no fuss.
If you’re looking for a reliable, comfortable, and long-lasting yoga mat without the hefty price tag, the Gaiam Essentials Thick Yoga Mat is your best bet. It has exceeded my expectations and continues to be an integral part of my fitness routine. Highly recommended!

Needed a more comfortable, thicker mat for doing rehab Pilates. I have used this for 3 months now and couldnât be happier with it. Highly recommend especially for Pilates/physio exercises.
