STOTT PILATESPilates and Yoga Mat

I was drawn to the look and description of this mat, as well as the Stott name. It lists in the description: "Includes carrying strap and Features a non-slip surface". While it does include the carrying strap (which I'd like to get more of for my replacement yoga mat) this mat is definitely NOT non-slip. I practice non-hot/sweat yoga, and I find it utterly frustrating in downward dog or warrior poses when my feet are slipping all over on this mat. It looks nice, and I like that the wording helps me in lining up my foot placement for multiple poses, but this mat is too dangerous to use for any standing yoga poses. I will be relegating this to floor bound exercises such as pilates, or using the foam roller where I'm not concerned about slipping.

The design is cool. The mat is thick but sinks in if I'm on my knees so will need to fold it for more cushion. I'm a little disappointed with the quality though. This is the second one I bought as the first one was ruined when my friend put it on the concrete floor and slept on it. The mat stuck to the ground and parts of the surface ripped off when we were peeling the mat from the ground. I used it less than 10 times up to this point. I thought that the damage was user error (which it still probably was) so I bought another one. When I started using the second one, the surface of the mat was flaking and breaking apart during yoga class. Because of my two experiences, I think I'm going to try a different brand.

Bought it for my girlfriend because she started yoga classes. She really likes it, although she is my girlfriend and it was a gift so maybe not. The yoga mat came with the strap handle and altogether this mat is a really good quality unit. I would recommend this mat to anyone looking for a nice yoga mat.

I’ve had the mat for one to two years. The material has started to Come off in small pieces. But overall I enjoyed my mat. Since it’s the first mat I’ve owned I have nothin else to compare it to.

nice mat, cool design, but strong chemically, plasticy smell had to hang it outside to air out for a day or two, other than that works great

It's a pretty standard pilates/yoga mat, works well for both. Seems durable and the carrying strap it came with is handy. The reason why I'm giving it four instead of five stars is the cloud print which is rather poor quality. You can barely make out the printed words, looked much better in the photos.

Beautiful sophisticated design goes perfectly with my yoga room decor. Great soft non slip mat, easy to clean.

Super Cute!I love it! Large enough for me and some.
