Customers say
Customers find the yoga mat excellent for both regular and hot yoga, with good grip that holds up well, and appreciate its comfort with cushioning under the knees. They like the embossed pattern design and consider it well worth the price, with one customer noting it’s denser than other mats. While the build quality is generally good, some customers report their mats falling apart over time.

The grip is real, great mat!
I’ve been using this mat for hot yoga twice a week for about a month now and I LOVE it. I love the color and pattern. I love the size and thickness –it’s substantial enough that my knees never hurt but provided stability perfectly. Whatever magic the finish is made of TOTALLY WORKS. It is absolutely grippy and slip resistant –I am an extremely sweaty person and I haven’t slipped at all. This mat is a gem. I bought the purple bag to carry it in, too. Especially for the price point, this is an absolute steal! I highly recommend!
Amazon Customer –
Non-slip. great quality. Highly recommend!! 🙂 Best yoga mat I’ve found on amazon.
Highly recommend! Finally, a good non-slip, durable yoga mat. Would definitely buy again.I’ve had trouble finding a good Non-slip yoga mat. It’s been an ongoing search for years. After trying and returning many mats, I usually end up buying another cheap mat.. the ones that shed little pieces and don’t’ hold up well. I gave this one a shot and I am glad I did. Here’s why I’d recommend it:non-slip (not too grippy; which yes, I’ve encountered. The grip is perfect). doesn’t shed plastic pieces. good quality. good thickness/ support for any workout (I use it for yoga, Pilates, weightlifting, ab workouts, all of my indoor workouts since I have a hardwood floor). I got it at the beginning of the year (2025) and it has held up very well with almost daily use (often multiple times a day).. no visible wear or tears or thinning (and no shedding of pieces!). It is easy to wipe down since it’s a smooth material (I use an organic cleaner similar to the Meyer’s cleaning products, and a damp cloth). Also, great price for the quality of the mat!Other helpful information:-I use this mat at home, but it is a heavier mat than others, so it might not be great for traveling.-The very end where it’s rolled doesn’t lay perfectly flat, but that doesn’t bother me. It has so many other good qualities, please don’t let that stop you from purchasing it.-No carrying strap, but it stays rolled up on its own, so I haven’t needed a strap.-I don’t recall it having any strong odor. I believe there was a slight new mat smell, and I left it unrolled to air out the first day. Any new mat smell quickly dissipated and by now there’s definitely no smell.. it also doesn’t pick up odor from my sweat or anything either.-It is not reversible. It stays put on my hardwood floor during the workout.. the underside doesn’t slide on the floor.-It seems a tad shorter than prior mats I’ve had, but it’s a good length for me; I’m 5’6″ FYI.Best mat I’ve found! I’ve tried probably over a dozen mats from amazon, including the more expensive ones like Manduka and returned them, mostly because they were never actually non-slip.

Still my favorite mat after five years
Best. Mat. Ever. It’s very much like Lulu The Mat. But a bit smaller in size, lighter & more beautiful. Lulu’s The Mat wears down so fast & this one doesn’t. Much lighter than manduka. Thicker/comfier than jade harmony which previously was my favorite. The surface is very absorbent. The grip is amazing – way better than traditional mats – I am so secure in warrior 2. I am able to go through half my hot power yoga class without a yoga towel. Then I lay down a towel during core when my sweat starts really dripping. It performs great when hot & damp, but also when dry. This mat is thick which is awesome for my knees in camel, and feels sturdy rather than squishy. I use chained hair elastics attached to a large button to hold it rolled when not in use. Any mat strap would work, I was just feeling creative & made my own. I used another thick mat before, but it was slippery. Then I used jade harmony but it was too thin. This is perfect.Update: I have had this yoga mat for 2 years now!!! I went through TWO yoga teacher trainings using this every day for hours, and often allowing other students to use it. I practice on it every single day. I do restorative yoga, drip-heavy heated power yoga and Bikram, as well as occasionally an outdoor class. It remains immaculate, as though I bought it yesterday! I cannot say enough good things about this mat. I clean it with JUST WATER and I think this is why it has retained its beauty. Occasionally, like every few weeks, I will clean it with either dish soap, vinegar, lemon juice-dilutred water with a drop of tea tree oil. Not consistent, just whatever is around. Usually it’s water and let hang dry outside. It does not smell (I am a medium-sweater, not a huge dripper but not just a glower). I wish my yoga studio carried this mat, I think I am going to recommend that they do. I don’t use it during my teaching only because I feel like I cannot “sell” it up, since we don’t carry it. But if we carried it, I would tell every student to buy it. Especially that student who face-planted on her lulu mat. The surface is only slightly worn – it’s almost as new looking as the day I bought it. It’s a beautiful mat. It’s thick and comfortable for those with knee issues, it has not matted down much at all – maybe just slightly after two years & only recently. I think I’ll get it in purple next!UPDATE: Year 3 almost to the day. I am finally beginning to see wearing on my beautiful mat. I’ve been practicing at home regularly & just did a third yoga teacher training. I am starting to notice it wearing down at the top middle & top bottom of my mat. I think it’s time for a replacement, but I’ll never throw this one away. They’ll have to bury it with me.UPDATE: It’s STILL my favorite mat after 5 years. It is showing some love wear on the surface but it’s not peeling, and i can see some of the threads around the top and bottom of the mat that are starting to be exposed. I kind of want to buy another identical mat but I kind of want this one to last forever and it’s still 100% functional. Part of me wants another just to test how much better (or not) a brand new one is because I think this MUST have lost some of its cushioning. Right? Well, it is like the tarot deck I’ve had for 25 years, I could buy a new one but the old has become an extension of me, one of my favorite possessions in its perfection as it is not new but still exactly perfect.

Hot yoga mat
This is a great mat. I have tried several types and this is a great mat for the price. Cheaper than lulu but quality almost matches!It’s heavy duty, thick and slip resistant! Perfect for a hot yoga class.

Absorbs sweat and not slippery
I recently purchased my second yoga mat after three years of use. It was worth the price because it didn’t break down and only needed a replacement due to a slight odor. While I didn’t clean it as frequently as I should have, it still lasted for three years and I plan to continue using it (just not in hot Pilates anymore) I sweat excessively and the mat absorbs the moisture, preventing the mat from becoming slippery. I highly recommend this yoga mat to individuals who sweat a lot.

I typically do 1 hot class and 1 session at home a day and this mat has held up really well after about a month. I’ve noticed some minimal wear starting on the top sheet but the integrity and cushion of the mat is holding up well and for a heavy sweater I need that. Would recommend this mat to any regular yoga practitioners.

Absolute life saver!After buying cheap 20$ mats at local sports stores and either sinking into them,or sliding like on ice, found this gem!Very grippy, and great quality.Would buy more as gift once needed

This has been a great mat. I have been using it for about a couple of months now. The grip is really good and I use it for both a calming practice as well as a sweaty ashtanga practice. It does well with both. Soft and foamy too for my knees as I have had knee surgery, without being unstable. Love this mat and highly recommend it!

I treated myself to this as my old yoga mat was crumbling and little bits were falling off. This is a much better quality – and so nice when doing yoga, pilates, body balance.
