Worth every penny
After having had this mat for a few months now, I can honestly say that I love it. I opted for the extra long one (85") and I'm SO glad I did. That being said, I think the regular length would be totally fine too...I just found that for me personally the long is great because I don't spend so much time scootching back on the mat in the middle of my flow! The Napa color is really pretty too. Pretty true to the color in the photo and relaxing/not distracting during practice.The mat has held up well, and I really like the 1/2" thickness - the texture helps too so your hands won't slip during poses, or if you're taking it to hot yoga (my fave). It's cushy, but not too thick and on a wooden floor, it definitely provides enough cushion for exercises that might otherwise hurt your wrists/back etc. (for me this was more relevant with Pilates and bodyweight exercises - also great for my Mom who struggles with exercising with RA). The only thing I will say is it's slightly stretchy, but I do more Pilates/core with it, so it's greatIt might seem silly, but I was pretty excited about the little carry strap that came with it too. It's just convenient to not have to have my mat unrolling when I'm already awkwardly juggling everything else. I can loop it onto my workout bag and go which is a huge plus.I'm definitely pleased and would (and have already) recommended it. As someone who's usually pretty thrifty, I think it's a great buy.

Not that great
I bought this mat thinking I needed a little more padding between me and the floor. While this mat did provide that, it also provided a little something extra. This mat makes awful, loud, and mortifying fart noises during class. The mat also stretches which made it less than stable. The foam would indent and stay that way. Because of the thickness of the foam, it also doesn’t roll up very easily or very well. I’m returning it.

Wow, what a great Yoga mat!
This is by far the best yoga mat I've ever owned. It's lightweight yet durable and has the feel of something that will last a long time. I highly recommend!

It's okay but its slides around and stretches too much
This mat is okay but I've been told by my yoga instructor that it is more of a pilates mat rather than a good yoga mat. It slips and stretches a little too much sometimes and that makes it difficult to do lunges and such. It squeaks a little in class. It also stays depressed down for a while rather than bouncing right back while I am using it. I like that it has lots of cushion for my knees but I will probably have to get a different mat that doesn't slide around and stretch.

I think it's fantastic. Super comfortable to lay on for floor exercise ...
Not sure why there are so many complaints about this mat. I think it's fantastic. Super comfortable to lay on for floor exercise and as far as the mat stretching or squeaking on the floor, I haven't experienced that either. The color is beautiful, the font is nice, and the texture is great for grip. WOuld recommend to anyone!

This is the most AMAZING yoga mat
This is the most AMAZING yoga mat!!! This mat is thick enough that it doesn't hurt my knees when I do knee poses. I was worried that it would be slippery since it was so soft, but it's not slippery at all. I can grip the mat comfortably and securely. My boyfriend and I thought that we would try it out and now we're fighting over who gets to use it! Looks like you'll be getting another order soon :-)

Perfect for pilates
A mat like this is a must for pilates classes. Most yoga mats are too thin and don't protect your back when you're performing pilates exercises on the floor. This one is nicely padded and makes doing those exercises much less painful.

Quite the opposite of balance...
As comfortable as it is to lay on, it’s nearly impossible to do many poses (downward dog, lunges), because the mat just stretches with the pressure and doesn’t offer stable support. Also, the cushion presses down and looks worn so quickly after only a few uses. Wouldn’t recommend if you’re actually practicing yoga, maybe for some lighter moves that involve less movements.

Extra comfy mat for a novice yogi.
I think this mat is so great, it is very comfortable and has a super convenient carrying strap. I do yoga roughly twice a week but couldn’t stand the 1/4 mats. For my purposes this Mat is working very nicely however I will say it seems like it may wear out quickly. The foam doesn’t spring back. It is more like a memory foam and it already had indentations from the strap.
