Retrospec Solana Yoga Mat 1" & 1/2" Thick w/Nylon Strap for Men & Women - Non Slip Exercise Mat for Yoga

It does have a weird smell, like fishy smell once opened from the package. But the smell gradually faded in later days. It’s very light in weight, yet very thick and soft. Great for abs workout. No pressure felt on the tailbone when doing crunches nor elbows when doing plank. It’s also non slip. The mat also comes with the strap which I can then hang the mat for storage when not used. It does leave dent mark on the mat after first use. However, that doesn’t really affect much other than the look.

I use this mat on the ground near the beach. It's easily stained and cracked, however, it is durable because I have had it over a year. I use it three times weekly. It's thickness suits my knees for certain moves but I find it is slippery to do bare feet moves (on the mat) for me. I have benefitted using it.

I had a thin yoga mat at the beginning of covid quarantine, and I wanted something squishier for heavier lifting at home after gyms closed. I got this March 25th, and nearly 5 months later I love it. It has some pitting and shows wear, but it’s easy to clean, rolls up and unfurls without creasing or curling, and it protects my joints. I work out barefoot on it, and I sometimes set down my weights on it. The material may show an impression of my feet or the weights for a few minutes, but then it fades as the material rises again.

Decent yoga mat, worth the price. I use it more for low impact exercising and beginner yoga. It helps relieve the strain of being on a hard wood floor, compared to standard yoga mats that have no support. If you need something to keep balance and stuff for more advanced yoga, you should probably get a thinner mat. This one doesn't move extremely easy so it works for me. It did have a bad smell, I wiped it down with soapy water and hand washed the strap and now it smells fine and layed flat pretty easily. This is the nude color and 1/2 inch thickness.

I was (like everyone else) locked up a good bit of the past fall and winter, and with gyms mostly closed, it fell upon me to work out at home. This isn't as easy to do when you have all hardwood floors. (Try doing sit-ups on hardwood floor! They kill your hips, back and spine!) After a few days of completely punishing my body, I ordered this mat. This is just what I needed to put on the floor and give my body the comfort it needed while exercising. It is lightweight, resists up-curling at the ends pretty well, and hasn't gone flat on me yet. While it is definitely showing some wear after three months of use, it has not yet begun to crumble at the edges or show any permanent splits in the material anywhere. I didn't want to spend much on this mat, and I didn't. For the price I paid, I'm completely satisfied with the product.

From the color to the design to the comfort, this product is amazing! I bring it every week with me to yoga and it has really made a difference in my practice. It relieves any stress that body weight would have on your ankles, knees and wrists. The 6 inch thickness is worth it. Can’t wait for class so I can use it again and again! Only con I have is that it doesn’t slip/stretch out slightly when in down-dog. Other than that I have zero complaints and would buy again/recommend to a friend in a heart beat!

This is a thickly padded mat and very comfortable, but don't expect it to last long. I don't know what the one year warranty covers but it'd be nice to have a replacement for the price I paid. I don't even use it regularly, but within a few months, it started to wear away. By six months, it's filled with dimples, depressions, and worn out little rips. I'd have loved to write a flattering review but the quality is just not made to stand.

Arrived in a mangled box, but product wasn't damaged. Color matched expectations- is a nice cool, minty blue. It isn't quite an inch think; I measured it at 13/16". I have a bony, sensitive backbone and hardwood floors, but this mat made crunches comfortable. It didn't seem to be slippery at all, but I didn't use it for any standing exercises. It was easy to unroll & roll back up & place in the carrying straps. It's a bit bulky when rolled up, but that was expected for its thickness. No odor detected. It just arrived today and I have only used it once so I can't comment on longevity,but so far it seems like a great product.

Resistente Cómodo Buen diseño y color No es tan resbaladizo Con el tiempo se le hacen algunas marcas por la presión del peso en algunas áreas pero es por lo mismo del grosor del tapete. Antideslizante Buena calidad de material. Durable

Es muy buen mat. Muy cómodo Nos ha durado Vino en excelentes condiciones y con todo lo que decía. Buen diseño y el color un poco opaco pero nada de que quejarse. Lo único malo es que se le han hecho algunas marcas por la presión del peso en algunas áreas, sin embargo no se ha roto. Sólo son marquitas, nada del otro mundo.

Soy la más feliz con mi tapete, esta cómodo suave y del tamaño perfecto

The mat is super comfortable, and very well cushioned. I use it for sculpt classes and Pilates and any time I have to do anything in a table-top position my knees are well supported. The only reason I didn’t rate this 5-stars across the board is because the surface does scar easy (see photo). It also comes with a weird smell, but I sprayed it with some homemade yoga mat spray with lavender and tea tree oil and aired it outside and it did go away. Overall, at the price point, it is still worth buying in my opinion.

Using mat for physio exercises to recover from a leg and knee injury. It's very soft and comfortable. When I'm tired I find myself laying on it between exercises and nearly falling asleep. Mine arrived with a tiny tear on the side but I decided to keep it and it hasn't gotten any bigger in 3 months. The mat did need to off gas for a while before the "new" smell was completely gone. I recommend leaving it unravelled after use to speed up the process. Very happy with the product.
