Gaiam Premium Yoga Mat - (6mm)

This is a great mat. I love the look and feel, and was happy it did not slip during my practice. But WOW! What a strong smell! I took it out of the packaging and tried to air it out for a few days before using it, but it still has a very strong odor.

Good grip and decent cushion. However, I've only had the mat for 3 months and it sheds on me when I roll it up.

This yoga mat is very good in quality and doesn't slip at all while you are on it. Just what I wanted for yoga.

I got the green one with the tree. I think the design is cute. The mat doesn't move, even when I'm doing my HIIT workout. It doesn't shred like my other mat I had. It also gives a nice amount of cushion.

Super grippy. Beautiful design. No lingering smell. Dog also stated 10 out of 10 he could recommend to a friend..(See photo) 😁❤️

Definitely not non-stick. Attempted to use it for one practice and found myself fighting the splits and falling out of poses as my hands and feet were slipping constantly. Not the kind of workout I was looking for. Usually my go to brand. Mat is sadly being returned.

Love the fun design and the density and texture for functionality. Win win.

Love the design and color. Comfy mat. This is a #10 of 10!

Large, thick mat. Great for exercise.

This and that has a lot of cushioning and it’s very soft. It is good for yoga and has a grip on it.

Slippery and not a very supportive cushion.

Really cute mat but it does get a little slippery when your hands are sweaty.

The 6mm thickness is good for my knees. I have done several exercises on the mat comfortably and without slipping

There is a reason this is on sale. The paint used to make the bronze medallion rubs off on everything. Do not buy this unless you want a smudged mat and bronze paint on your feet.

Love this mat after trying it out in yoga class. The mat does, as advertised, feel sticky or tacky to the touch such that you wonder if a residue is left on your hands and feet (there is not). The stickiness helps to maintain your yoga postures such as downward dog, warrior and the plank. Additionally, the 6mm thickness (as opposed to the 4mm) provides cushioning for knees and spine. I wasn't sure about the bright gold design but actually enjoyed it while doing the postures....gives you something pretty to look at!

The print is more bronze than gold and it runs off with sweat. It’s a thicker mat, which I like but I’m bummed about the print transferring off.

I’ve had this yoga mat for 8 months now and absolutely love it!! Great design with perfect length and width. I’m 5’3 and the length works well for me. It still has great cushion and grip to it after 8 months. I go to yoga 1-2x weekly. Would highly recommend. Also if you do hot yoga, would definitely recommend buying a yoga mat towel.

This is rather slippery. I do not have particularly sweaty hands but notice a loss of grip when my hands are even slightly moist. Other than that it looks nice.

Material is super great, it does not slip, decent size esp. if you’re a first time yoga adventurer.

Quality and thickness are great.
