LOVE the size for keeping in the house. Very sticky back does not slide on the hardwood. Just enough squish to be truly comfortable for the knees and elbows during workouts. Doen not leave an impression like thicker soft mats. Firm enough to be stable when standing. The top material is a great balance of smooth with some tack and texture. It does not mark or mar as some mats do becuase it is PVC (more durable) and not TPE. I am using this for workouts and yoga and could not be more pleased! Premium quality. Read more
Super high quality and the size it’s exactly what I was looking for, I don’t know why this isn’t the standard size for the yoga mats, superb buy! Read more
Very nice mat. Most satisfied Read more
I love it. Good size not slide up Read more
Unbeatable bang per buck! The thickness is good enough. The quality of the grip is superb and way better than some other pvc mats I have used! The surface for working out feels durable. Only advice is to roll it out and let it sit out for 24 hours to get the smell out! Mine was perfectly fine after 24 hours. Highly recommend Read more
My daughter has a HAPBEAR mat in her room so I was excited to get one for myself. I have several yoga mats of different size, shape, and materials to accommodate different types of yoga practices but more costly mats tend to be very heavy. Especially when it's an oversized mat. I needed something more portable and lightweight, while still having thick enough cushioning to protect my joints. This HAPBEAR mat is the perfect "happy medium". Great size and feel, and the grip design does it's job. It's lightweight, easy to move, but doesn't slide on the floor when using for yoga practice. It's a fantastic value when it comes to a mat this size and thickness. The only small negative is I did have to wash it off and let it sit for a few days because it came with a strong chemical smell. After a week the smell was undetectable, thankfully! Read more
My husband, 227 pounds, is taking Pilates, something completely new... Perfect size for someone large and heavy. The back is very grippy and doesn't slip on any surface. Soft, thick, and comfortable enough for a large man, it protects his knees during sessions and doesn't stain the floor with sweat because it's thick enough. It works perfectly in the Pilates classes my husband is taking. He's 45 years old, weighs 227 pounds, and is a heavy man who suffers from chronic lower back pain and is afraid of slipping. These classes are completely new to him, but recommended by his doctor. The top material is soft, providing security and stability, excellent grip, and a smooth feel. Being PVC, it's much more durable, doesn't mark the floor, is easy to clean, adheres to the floor, and doesn't move under my husband's weight. price... I think it's expensive, but it's worth every penny. Read more
The yoga mat has a chemical odor. As stated on the label it will dissipate over time. It did not say how long that would be. It stunk up the muscle (exercise) room. It is a light red, so it looks slightly pink. On the top, It has a wave, 2 half arcs and rainbow band design in a dark pumpkin orange. The top has a filigree texture. The back has a line texture. The material is a higher quality thick waterproof PVC. The mat is 84.375 inches x 30.0 inches x 0.3125 inches. It weighs 15.3 ounces. The bag weighs 1.5 ounces and is a thinner rip stop nylon material and mesh. The strap is adjustable. The longest length is 32.0625 inches and the shortest is 19.9375 inches. At the shortest it becomes a handle. When it is long it can be used as a shoulder strap. The strap is 0.96875 of an inch wide. The bag has a drawstring spring toggle on top for closure. The mesh portion is located in the middle of the bag and is 10.75 inches long. The inside seam of the drawstring had fraying and several threads hanging. I cut the threads off and used fray check [B013WTDO3A] on the edges, side, and over the thread seam to prevent more unraveling. The mat functioned well. Using the mat for posing, it was denser and did not compress excessively. It provided adequate grip. The bag strap was not wide enough to support the weighty bag to be comfortable on my shoulder without digging in. It was okay for hand carrying like a handle since the strap gets doubled up then. It was difficult to get the mat in the bag because it doesn't come with closure straps. It is like trying to get a sleeping bag with straps around in its bag. The mat wants to uncoil from the center when you just put the end in and shake it down. I put the mat on the ground rolled up, straddled the mat, started putting the beginning of the bag on and pulled it up little by little like putting a sock on, while I worked my way down straddling the bag until the end. At first, I had the bag rolled up to 6.5 inches in diameter. That was too large to go in. I rolled it tighter to 6.125 inches in diameter and it went in. Value added for the expense for a mat that does not bend up when you step on it and has grip. Read more
