Gaiam Essentials Thick Yoga Mat Fitness & Exercise Mat with Easy-Cinch Yoga Mat Carrier Strap, 72"L x 24"W x 2/5 Inch Thick

So comfy!I bought a green one for my teen to use when I noticed him trying to work out on his bare bedroom floor… and then I got jealous of how thick his was so I ordered another one for myself too :)I do various types of yoga sometimes and my wrists get sore at times, so this is nice for lighter days. I’m not sure how well it works with sweaty yoga and it’s probably way too thick to support any complex poses, but it is more comfy for stretching and gentle floor work.

I just received this yoga mat. The color is kind of roses or lavender. I think it was a good value for a color that I wanted. I need it for stretching and light exercises in my apartment so that I don't have to lie on the carpet. I can also use it to get my heart rate up at home. It is very nice and thick.

This yoga mat is an absolute dream! I have sensitive knees that bruise easily, and this mat provides the perfect cushioning for a comfortable workout—no more hard floor discomfort. It's the ideal size, lightweight for easy transport, and the color is exactly as pictured. Couldn’t be happier with this purchase!

This is definitely the most comfortable Matt I’ve ever had, purchased this one back in October 2024.I took a star away because of how easy it wears down over time, I have another matt from 2020 that has no marks or dents (however not nearly as comfortable or squishy) and I really expected this one to at least make it a few years with me.I work out anywhere from 30min-1 hour a day every day doing calisthenics, Pilates, or yoga, so unsure if maybe my usage is more excessive than others, but now I’m looking for a new matt and am torn on trying to buy a better brand hoping it’s just as comfortable and more durable, or just buying this one again knowing I’ll need to replace it in a few months 🙈

This Gaiam Essentials yoga mat is very comfortable thanks to its thickness—it’s great for protecting your knees and back. Since I spend many hours sitting, I use it to stretch and do relaxation exercises, and it really helps with tension in my legs and back.It comes with a strap, which makes it easy to store and carry, and the size is great even if you’re tall.Just be aware that it can get slightly slippery on smooth floors, especially if you sweat. For that reason, I recommend not leaving it laid out all the time on slick surfaces, as it might shift a little during use.Overall, I really like it and use it daily. Good quality for the price.

Love this mat! I bought it because I really needed the support for my sensitive knees. It's easy to clean and the straps make it even easier to roll up and move around. Another plus, it's my favorite color!

I really like how thick and long this yoga mat is. It provides great cushioning, so I don’t feel the hard ground underneath whether I’m sitting, standing, or kneeling during my workouts. It’s super comfortable and supportive, which makes exercising much more enjoyable.The mat feels durable and the size is perfect for most routines. Definitely a great choice if you want extra padding and comfort for your yoga or fitness sessions!

It is well worth your money, since it can be used as a pilates mat, conditioning in a ballet class, or everyday workouts. Super easy to transport and also super soft cushioned and comfortable.
