Spotlight customer reviews: Customer Rating: Summary: Amazon ruined this order Comment: The description says that if you order the purple mat you are supposed to receive two mats. We received one and when we emailed amazon twice about the problem we received no help. When I eventually called they told me I would have to mail the "defective" mat back to them and that they would send a new order . . . unfortunately they are waiting for a shipment right now so if I don't want to wait I can get a refund instead. What a mess. This is the worst experience I have ever had with amazon. Customer Rating: Summary: Perfect second mat Comment: This mat is a perfect second mat. It's way too thin to place on a hard floor alone. It's perfect for putting on top of the smelly mat at the gym or using it at work on the carpeted floor. It is also so thin that you can sort of fold it into a bulky square instead of rolling it. That way you don't have to use one of those yoga roll bags if you don't want to. Customer Rating: Summary: There are two types of this mat that were made... Comment: I am a yoga teacher and own 28 of these mats. There are two types of manufactured mats, and one is better than the other. One of the mats has the tag (logo) located on the bottom left, and this is the better mat. It's durable and you have good traction. The other has the tag located on the top right side. This mat is a little like taffy, it stretches and bunches up when you stand in warrior pose, but it does have good traction and your feet won't slip. I hope this helps anyone interested in the mat. Customer Rating: Summary: Useless, annoying, impossible to work with Comment: I bought this mat because a basic mat is all I want, the price looked good, and I figured, hey, how bad can a yoga mat be? Bad. Very, very bad. First of all, this mat is not sticky the way a yoga mat should be. It doesn't keep your hands and feet firmly in place -- it adheres to your hands and feet and moves around with different poses. It is also so thin as to almost be about as thin as a bedsheet, and therefore rendered completely useless. On carpeted surfaces it folds and wrinkles like a blanket, and on hard surfaces there is absolutely no padding. Don't expect to be relaxed after your yoga practice if you use this mat. Expect to be a lot more tense and a lot less happy about life. Customer Rating: Summary: Two Sides to All Yoga Mats; Know Which Side is Up Comment: Yoga mats come in three basic thicknesses. At 1/16" this mat is the thinnest kind good for travel or placing under a thicker mat to provide more traction. At 24" x 68" it is the standard width and length. The thickest mats (3/16") are designed for those who need or want extra cushion. The average mats are about 1/8." There are two sides to this and nearly all yoga mats. Look carefully at the 'bumps' on each side of the mat. The larger bumps are designed to face upwards to cushion your hands, feet, and knees during poses while keeping your body from dangerously slipping out of alignment. The smaller bumps are designed to face downwards to grip the floor and keep the yoga mat from sliding. Many mats have a label on one end with the name of the brand. This is typically, but not always, located on the 'up' side. The bumps will tell you for sure. This yoga mat will increase in softness and stickiness with use. (So do most mats.) They start out mildly sticky and increase in stickiness the more they are used. You will want to wash your mat when it first arrives so as to remove the thin film they get on their surface during the manufacturing process. Instructions for washing the mat are included. Once you've washed and dried your mat you're ready to begin! After using it for a while, if you find the mat decreasing in stickiness each time you pull it out, this is the typical sign that a light coating of dust or too much body sweat has accumulated on your mat and it needs a light hand washing with very diluted soap and water. After washing, roll your mat in a thick towel to squeeze out the excess water, otherwise it will take forever to dry in the air. Then, air dry your mat unrolled, inside, and away from sunlight. (Hanging over the shower bar works nicely.) When you first unroll your mat you will find one end to be a bit curled. Simply alternate the direction you roll your mat (top outside once, then bottom outside next) or the end you start from (curled end once, flat end next time) and you'll find it straightening out more or less over time. I recommend buying your own yoga mat even if your yoga studio or gym provides them for you. I've worked in many studios and gyms over the years. Sometimes management has mats cleaned often, sometimes not. If you bring your own mat you always know where it's been. :o) Plus, owning your own mat may encourage you to begin valuable practice at home. For my students who have trouble with their knees in some of the poses requiring the body weight to rest on a knee, I recommend temporarily folding over one end of the mat to get double cushion under the knee while still leaving one layer under the rest of the body. This saves you having to haul more than one mat out each time you practice which can be discouraging especially to the beginner. More Reviews
