Excellent Mat! Used for P90X Ab Ripper X July 6, 2010 Vincent I was looking for a sufficient mat to use with the Ab Ripper X workout of P90X and I am glad I purchased this. Realistically, any yoga mat will do, but any extra support for your tailbone is fine in my opinion.
The mat has just the right amount of cushion, and even though it's thick padding, you will not sink into the floor while on the mat. Great buy! Highly recommended.
Quality is low June 12, 2010 H. Rosales 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
The mat quality is very low. The brand is not VIP. They are just the sellers. So don't get surprised if you see another brand PRINTED on the mat that they don't show you here on their picture. Also the mat IS NOT 2" Thick. The actual size is 1 INCH. So take that into consideration before buying this product. Well at the end I returned this mat and got a full refund. So their customer service is good.
Other reviews NOT ACCURATE!! June 3, 2010 G. Johnson 12 out of 12 found this review helpful
I just received two of these mats. Since there is very little description of this product, I relied on the reviews for information and that was a mistake. One reviewer states "No stinky vinyl-- cool!" and that's just not true. The mat is vinyl and smells like vinyl. Another reviewer states "The two inch thickness is a comfortable amount of padding" again, totally false. The mat is 1" thick, not 2" thick, and the dimensions are written on the mat itself. The same reviewer also states "The nylon material is comfortable on my skin". Again, a lie. There is no nylon material on the mat. It is vinyl and sticks to your skin. In conclusion, either some of these reviewers are rating a different product or are in some way connected to the company that makes these mats and are embellishing their reviews. So, I was pretty disappointed with what I received but you get what you pay for and this is the least expensive mat on Amazon.com.
Great padding for those who need it May 9, 2010 lshapski This works for me. Since I've had knee problems, my older, thinner exercise mat was not good for me. I would prefer it to be slightly wider, however. And the thickness is not the best for some types of exercises; it all depends what you need it for. The folds make it easy to carry and easy to store, but sometimes one has to change position because of them; that is a minor issue, however, a tradeoff.
Awesome mat - don't be afraid of the good price April 2, 2010 Some Guy 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This mat performs a lot like a very expensive gym mat. It is not too squishy, and it is not too thin. I use it on hardwood floors and it's better than carpet that has the padding underneath (u can feel the slate under that on carpet if u do enough situps - this mat transfers none of that).
I've seen other mats on amazon in the same dimensions that were 2x as much. Don't bother. This one is really good.
The one drawback I would say is that it doesn't have the velcro joiners so you can't attach another mat to it to make a larger surface. That being said I guess I wish it were wider, but then again neither are any of the other mats in the same category. Rather than spending 4x as much for a double-wide mat I'd rather just buy two of these and take my chances that the weight of them would keep them in place, or that I could rig something. Price-wise that'd work out really well.
