PerfectJun 18, 2008
Yes, it did come out of the box smelling a little funny...sort of a new car/shoe smell. It quickly faded though, so it wasn't a problem. Besides, it's basically a giant sheet of rubbery plastic, so I was expecting it to smell a bit chemical-ish at first, lol.
This mat is so thick, and so gorgeous! It provides the perfect amount of cushion, and keeps me from sliding around.
If you practice Hatha yoga, your toes will thank you!
(If you're more into Bikram, check out the nonslip towels.)
Great yoga mat!Apr 23, 2008
I really like this yoga mat. It is very thick and lays flat on the ground without rolling up at the ends like some mats do. I have long legs and this mat gives me plenty of room to stretch out.

 Soft, cushy, beautiful, but can be a bit slipperyApr 21, 2008
I have been using this mat for about 9 months, practicing yoga 2-4 times per week. It is a beautiful mat, and a "sticky"-type mat. It is lighweight and fits in a standard yoga mat bag.
While I like the mat, it did take some getting used to.
For one, it does have a bit of a smell when first removed from the plastic packaging. I can't really describe it, but it was not an unpleasant smell, just kind of...hmmm...not really rubbery smelling, not latex, but some type of synthetic smell. It does go away after a while.
For another, it was extrememly slippery at first. I had to wash it well with water in the tub and dry it in the sun to remove the slippery coating that came on it. It is now not slippery as it was, but once the class heats up, if I am sweating a bit on hands and feet, I definitely slip on it, particularly my hands doing down dog. This slipperiness is pretty standard on these sticky-type mats, so this is not a particular defect of the mat itself, just the nature of this type of material.
If you practice any kind of hot yoga, this would probably not be a good choice for you, unless you use one of those skidless blankets with it.
If you do hatha yoga and don't sweat a whole lot, then I really recommend the mat for its wonderful softness and beautiful look.
Love it!Apr 05, 2008
This a great mat-- very comfortable. The thickness is perfect for me. I rinse it down and let it air out for a few days before I used it to get rid of the rubber smell. After that, it was fine.
Love this matMar 26, 2008
I agree with everyone else when they said this mat smells when you first open it...boy did it ever!!! But I hung it out and it did go away rather quickly. I like it as it is really comfortable and I love the color.
