Enjoyed using this mat for many years
This has been my primary mat for 8 years; after using the first one for over 6 years I bought a second one as the first one had started to wear a bit. Even so, the older one still is a functional mat and is used for play at home.I originally wanted an eco-friendly mat that didn’t smell awful to me in child’s pose, like the PVC mats provided at the gym do. I never found the smell of this mat offensive; as with all new mats however it helps to wipe it down with a damp cloth and air it out upon arrival.I like that it is biodegradable, and that means I also never expected to last forever; a material cannot be indestructible and biodegradable at the same time. Even so, this mat has proven quite durable for my uses, which have varied over the years from once a week yoga to six times a week yoga, including three times a week in a heated studio (90-95 degrees.) I haven’t had notable slipping issues, even with the heated studio or on practice days where I just seem to be sweating more.I like that it is fully reversible, and my standard pactice has been to alternate sides and rolling direction with every consecutive class, so it has never been rolled up in one direction only when stored.The thickness is nice; it provides enough cushion for me in poses with weight on the knees and still feels stable for standing poses.At 5’8, and with shoulder width that fits a women’s large shirt size, the 24″ x 72″ dimensions have been generally functional for my practice, and I appreciated that this mat has a 72″ length rather than a 71″ or 68″ as I’ve seen as standard for some other mats. There are a few instances where I could use more mat space, and it would be nice if there was a larger 26″x 76″ option as well.

Very Nice Yoga Mat!
This was my first real yoga mat that wasn’t some cheap $10-$20 foam one from the store. It feels really great and am I so happy with the purchase. The mat is very “sticky” and your hands and feet will stay in position and won’t slide.There is a very slight rubber odor when you first receive it, but it’s very faint and hardly noticeable.I’ve only had the mat for a short time, so I can’t review the durability of the mat yet.2 Year Update:I’ve had this mat for over 2 years, and it’s still working great. I use the mat a few times a week, either for yoga, abs, or plyo workouts. Still in great condition.

Cushy and good width
I got this mat after using my mom’s and falling in love with it during a visit back home! This mat has a better grip than several others I’ve tried, and I love that it is made from biodegradable material. I still slid around a bit at first on it, but I think after cleaning it a few times it has gotten better. This mat has more cushion than basic models, which can make balancing poses hard, but it is much gentler on my knees and ankles. A great home practice mat overall.

Hugger Mugger yoga mat
I thought this was a wonderful product. I really like the thickness of it, the texture and the color/design. It is pretty non-slippery, but I think not as much as I had expected. That’s the only thing I would improve. Also, its packaging, because it doesn’t completely cover the mat, allowed dirt and smudges to get on it, so that in certain spots it was dirty when I received it. I’m talking about the manufacturer’s packaging, not Amazon’s. Amazon’s packaging was fine.

soft, squishy, and sticky – love it
My last yoga mat was an (expensive!!) Jade Harmony mat that I thought would last me forever, but after a couple years began to disintegrate and covered my knees and hands with sand-sided grains of rubber. I got this one as a less expensive alternative. I really like it. It is very squishy, very comfortable, and sticky. I would say it is more comfortable and more sticky than the expensive Jade mat I had, and hopefully will last as long! But also it was half the cost. I like the color and the lack of a distracting pattern. I would recommend to anyone looking for a relatively squishy mat with a good amount of stickiness.

Totally satisfied
The Hugger Mugger Earth Elements 5 mm yoga mat fully meets my needs.I needed to replace my old yoga mat. I need a mat that is sticky enough to give me good traction so my hands and feet don’t slip. The bottom needs to stick to the floor enough that it doesn’t slip. This mat meets those needs.I’ve used it a few times so far. The only negative I could say is that it shows dirt or footprints more than the old one, even though I think my feet are clean. Not enough so that I would be dissatisfied.

Great mat! Soft and safe.
This is my first âfancyâ yoga mat. I bought for my 200YTT and have been using everyday, all day for 2 weeks. Even through a 2hr hot yoga class with no towel and sweat all over I didnât slip. Highly recommend!

I’m very happy with the mat. For me it’s just the right combination of firmness and grip. In no way a fault of the mat, but I’m six foot tall and may do better with a longer mat.
