Customer Reviews: Rating:  Date: 2008-06-23 Sweet mat So far, after airing it out I have enjoyed owning and using this mat. I don't do hot yoga so I don't know if it gets slippery with sweat or not, but it has served me well so far. Rating:  Date: 2008-06-15 Don't bother... Don't bother with this mat. I just purchased it and I would send it back except that I paid over $5 in shipping and another $5 to send it back would amount to half the cost of it anyway, so I'll just keep it as a spare. First of all, it has a noxious odor. It's made from PVC which is known to leach into the skin and cause adverse health affects. Not only that but it's production causes major environmental damage. When you open the package, the smell basically hits you in the face and stinks up any room you keep it in. I had to hang mine outside for a day just to calm down the smell as it gave me a serious headache. It IS toxic! Not only that, but this mat is too thin. It's only 2mm whereas most decent mats are 3mm at least. Plus it's super slippery. I tried it out and couldn't even stay in downward dog. I kept slipping all over the place. Anyway, I just bought a Jade Harmony mat. Environmentally friendly, perfect grip and padding felt great. I went to yoga this morning but went for round 2 just now because the Harmony mat is so great I didn't want to get off of it! So much better than this one from Gaiam and well worth the investment. Rating:  Date: 2008-06-03 not that great this product is alright in material but the thing to take note is its terrible odor when you first open it and the odor sticks for a very long time. Don't get if you can't tolerate smelly things. It's barely tolerable. With yoga in certain positions you are close to the mat and I had to smell it. So I end up throwing it out. Rating:  Date: 2008-06-01 A Little Thin Although this yoga mat is made to some standard dimensions, the mat is a bit thin. There are some mats out there that are much thicker (twice as thick) and softer for yoga. We ended up returning this mat to order a different mat somewhere else that was thicker.
The design on this mat is sweet and hard to find (which is one reason we ordered this). The mats we ended up getting were plain colored with no graphics (a minor trade for upgrading to a thicker mat). Rating:  Date: 2008-04-28 Good YOGA mat I was expecting something a little bit thicker in padding. However, someone explained to me that the mat is suppose to be thinner to provide better support for various yoga positions. So I give the mat a high rating on being a Yoga mat only. |
