 A solid lightweight sticky mat, but not for every day / every place use... July 16, 2010

This mat has superb slip resistance, traction, and support is not bad, even though it is a relatively thin mat. It has held up to some very sweaty Ashtanga practices and it is excellent for travel at it is so light.
However, I feel the mat is a little less durable than I would have preferred as it seems like it's breaking down in some places and as some other reviewers have stated, gets little "knicks" in it.
And above all else, the biggest issue I have with this mat is that because of its open cell design and its extreme stickiness, it actually attracts dust, lint, and foreign matter VERY easily. After rolling and unrolling this mat on various surfaces at the many studios I teach and practice at, all kinds of debris has been transferred from the underside to the topside and back again. It's very hard to keep clean and that's a problem. If you move around a lot and practice at a lot of different places that are not ALWAYS perfectly clean, you can expect to find lots of little particles on this mat...
great mat not sure yet how fragile it will be? July 7, 2009

I love the weight of this mat especially while carrying it to class. Worked great today when used for the first time. I already noticed the mat "Knicking" little rubber chunks out though on my first use so I am curious as to see how long it will last. I will have to use it more to find out. If you are looking for easy to travel with then that is certainly a plus. I also opted for the extra 6'' which worked out very well for me since I am rather tall. I hope it turns out to be my favorite mat...as long as it doesn't fall apart.
I love this mat!!!!!! June 30, 2009

I brought this mat for a yoga teacher training workshop that I atteneded recently, and it worked great. I was a little apprehensive about the price, but after one use I didn't regret buying it at all. I didn't mind the smell, in fact once I started to use it I didn't notice it. And it is less slippery than other mats that I've tried and I highly recommend it to anyone who wants a quality mat to use.
A good sticky mat June 15, 2009

This is my second Jade Yoga Mat, and I'm still generally very happy with the mat! The mat has the best traction of those I've tried, and is nice and dense providing firm support. Since it's made of rubber, there is a slight scent, but even with a strong sense of smell, this has never bothered me. The mat's life span was about two and a half years with moderate use (2-3) yoga practices per week.
