I love, love, love this mat! I'll say right up front, I don't do heavy duty yoga or anything but I needed a solid mat to toss down on my wood floors when I work out.This mat is great! It is large, both long and wide. It is a very solid, rubber mat. It's not exceptionally thick, but it feels well cushioned when laying on a hard floor. My favorite feature is that it DOESN'T MOVE!!! The grip on this thing is fantastic. I have super slippery floors and any mat I've used in the past has had issues with sliding around while I'm working out. This bad boy doesn't go anywhere! I've done a variety of movements, barefoot and while wearing socks, and the mat and my feet all stay in place with no excessive movement.Price wise, this mat isn't cheap. However, it's not made cheaply either. It has a bit of a higher price point than maybe some other mats, but it also feels like it's built with longevity in mind and is durable as can be. That justifies paying a bit more, in my opinion.The only downside was a bit of a chemical smell when fresh out of the box. However, letting it sit in the fresh air for a couple of hours did the trick and the smell is gone!
