I bought two of these for our 1 hour work outs 4 times per week. So far we've had our shoes on them for most exercises in the hour including jumping around. They're the right thickness so that our hard floors don't hurt when on the ground, absorb shock from jumping, but not so thick that you're off balance or sinking in too much. I've used both thinner and thicker pads and this is the right balance. We bought floating shelf hangers, which are just two screws and a 5" pole that sticks out and these mount perfectly on those. I had to buy a set of 4, but they're cheap and perfect for this. I haven't noticed any real signs of wear yet after a couple months of use. They don't have the slick super easy to clean surface that some of them come with that allow you to do a 3 second wipe down. For these I have to kind of get a hold of the rag tight and take a few extra seconds to clean it because of the texture. Functionally these are worth the little bit of extra money and I will buy the same ones again once they start to wear out.

Nice quality and nice price

Item was as described and shown on pictures. Shipped fast and was packaged well. Loss of one star due to mat starting to lose small pieces from normal use. Nothing major just enjoy to notice.

Okay, I'll just say it – I didn't want to pay full price for this mat. And I didn't because it was half price during Amazon days. I actually think that all the truly commercial quality exercise mats are too expensive. I've used sooo many of them in gyms across the country (I travel for business) but I do like the SPRI branded mats because they seem to consistently hold up to heavy use. They don't stretch or tear easily, the foam is dense enough that they don't need to be too thick to offer great cushioning, they are easily cleaned AND they come in a 72 inch length.

Now for this mat: I needed the 72 inch length, as I'm 5ft 10in and for yoga needed the real estate. It does come in both a thicker and shorter option, but the 3/8 inch (about as thick as an iPhone) is perfect because it provides great isolation from the floor for my aging (69 yo) body, it doesn't stretch, but it isn't squishy so that eagle or tree poses feel nearly as stable as if doing them on a hard floor. Okay, big positive here – the mat did NOT have a chemically smell to it when new. So many complain about some mats having obnoxious odor I was concerned this would, but it did not. At all. I can be up close and personal like in baby cobra or childs and can't even smell it. Lastly, it came rolled tightly up, but unrolled easily without lots of memory. The hanging grommets are a nice feature, which I don't use. It's heavier than some, and certainly heavier than any true yoga mat. I can't see this as ever slipping on a floor unless the floor is really dirty and dusty, but nothing sticks to those floors.

So. Now that I own this mat, would I pay full price? Yes and no. Since it should last and last and last, that full price will be amortized over a long time so I might have talked myself into it. If you buy a less resilient mat and then have to repurchase, you've bought this one already.

Suggestion: if you don't want to buy this mat now, put it in your shopping cart, save it for later, and watch the price. That's how I caught the sale.

I bought this to hang mats in my gym (elementary school) It's held up all school year so far! Good value to hang lighter mats.

Design, size, thickness & quality are very similiar to the mats in Ritz Carltone gym at Naples Fl. I would buy again. My Husband uses it daily without slipping or issues with comfort.

This is a comfortable thickness and a good size. I don’t like my shoes on the mat, so I like this shorter length, yet it’s still long enough to keep my skin off the floor. It’s nice to have a hanging option as well.
