I had to order this mat when my class moved into a room with a hard wood floor. It provides the perfect amount of give and support for seated and floor poses (those on hands and knees). I do use my thin sticky yoga mat on top, otherwise it's a bit too slippery. I do not use it for standing poses.

I've had a half inch yoga mats before. But I have to say this 1 inch Yoga Cloud Ultra Thick mat has become my favorite. I'm a cyclist and I use it every time I get on the bike, before and after and it feels really comfortable. It grips the floor really well and it does not bother my knees which is the reason why I got it so thick. I have a very sensitive knew cap and when I place pressure on the pain is unbearable. I don't feel it with this mat so it works for me. The only draw back is the way it smells on the very first days if not weeks.. The smell is not the best, but like anything else that's rubber and that is knew I'm sure the smell will go away. Number two it is bulky. So you are definietely going to need closet space or a corner that you don't use often in your home to store this bad boy.. I think price could be lower but overall I think is worth it

It is very comfortable and light weight. I found it difficult to roll back up.

Very thick mat, even thicker than expected, as well as softer. Don't let your cats near it, though. It doesn't have any kind of protective finish. Other downside is that it is a little more difficult to balance with a thicker mat. The comfort of the thickness outweighs the cons. Very glad I received this as a gift. Would have eventually purchased this for myself.

I love this mat but it has a bit of an odor to it from the foam rubber material it’s made of. It is very comfortable for floor exercises and could probably be used for camping. It does seem soft enough that it may get scratched easily but I haven’t had a problem with it yet. The odor has disappated over time but is still a little annoying.

Very happy with this mat.
