1 comments about Gaiam Eco-Friendly Earth Lovers Mat.
- In the end, I'm glad I bought this mat. I looked at several different sites, including Gaiam itself. This was the most appealing of all products, and the best priced. The recyclable aspect of it makes me more excited about it, though it does have somewhat of a musty smell in the beginning. Also, realize that this particular product is thick for extra support.

- I've had this mat for about one month. I use it daily, mainly for exercising. So far its been great. Its very cushiony. It really absorbs the shock of my jumping around from cardio exercise. I always hated doing any type of exercise that involved me laying on the floor (i.e. crunches), but this mat has taken the pain out of that stuff. I have used it to lay on the floor and nap as well without hurting my back. The vinyl is really easy to clean. It usually doesn't take much effort. I like the color too. My first issue with this mat is that it already has a tear in it. I am not sure how the tear got there, but tearing after a few days (less than a week) makes me question the durability of the mat. My second issue is that it doesn't stay folded when I store it. It would just unfold and after a few weeks it began wilting. Its pretty big so storing it has become an issue itself. It takes up too much room to lay it down folded and it wilts unless something is next to it. I don't want to put anything next to it that might tear it more. Considering the price and the benefits of having an extra thick mat, I still love the mat and probably would purchase it again when this one needs to be replaced.
- This mat is great! It's just the right size and has enough cushioning to be really comfortable for floor exercises.

- This is a nice product, but the smell of rubber is overwhelming the room wherein I placed the set. Overall, excellent shipping time and nice item.

- These floor mats are really great! I wanted to create a home gym space for doing floor aerobics & step workouts as well as pilates, yoga, weighted workouts, etc. These fit the bill absolutely perfectly!!! They are stiff enough that there's no danger of ankle instability because of a too-soft surface, but they are soft enough that when you do floor work, they provide excellent cushioning. My knees used to kill me when I would do a runner's stretch, but now I actually go "ahhhh" as I'm doing them, which is great. Not even a smidge of discomfort. They are also really great for absorbing the jarring of high-impact activities. Talk about an ankle, knee, and hip saver! The ONLY discomfort I still notice and I really think it's just me) is during floorwork when I'm on my side to do leg lifts, I have some problems in the area of the greater trochanter (bony prominence at the top of the femur). But I am very sensitive in that area due to running a marathon recently, so again, I really think it's just me. Anyway, I just can't say enough good things about these mats -- I highly recommend them.
Now -- to address the title of my review..... My ONLY complaint about the mats -- and I'm echoing another recent reviewer on this -- is that when I first put them down, they slid all over the place on my hardwood floors. Because they are not completely wall-to-wall in the configuration I had them, this was a problem. I was able to solve the problem completely, though, by buying one of those sticky under-carpet anti-slip pads that you can get very inexpensively. I found a yoga sticky mat placed underneath did the trick, as well. But I would have had to put about 3 yoga sticky mats underneath to cover enough surface area to keep it from slipping.
In short, if you have hardwood floors like me (I don't know how they would perform on carpet or other surface; you'd have to see another review to check on that), I highly recommend these mats without reservation -- provided you are willing to shell out a tiny bit of extra dough to get an anti-slip pad to put underneath. Also, if you do, be sure to get one that covers the whole area of the mat (or very close to it). Otherwise, if you come down on a part that's not protected during a lateral move, you may find yourself sliding across the room and losing your balance.
A little expensive, but really worth the investment in my opinion. For more information, you may want to check out the reviews for the same flooring system in the 2'x2' size tiles. It is exactly the same product except for the dimensions. I bought the 1'x1' dimension, because it gave me more configuration options for my smaller space. Happy sweating to you (or whatever activities you plan to use the mats for). :)
- I am very satisfied with this. It provides adequate cushion for my pilates workout. My Yoga mat was not enough to protect my spine from the floor. This is perfect and it is skid proof.
- I have a spare bedroom i turned into a workout room...covered the entire floor with these before putting in the treadmill and such...love it...and i don't have to worry about scratching my wooden floors with any of my equipment. It's cushiony enough to do situps and pushups as well.
