I love the look and feel of this mat! It's fantastic for a sweaty workout. And it's easy to travel with; it's pretty lightweight for how thick it is. I will say that if you are used to a really thick yoga mat (that is what I have used for the past 5 years), you might find this on the thin side. This POPFLEX mat is clearly solid and durable, it was just thinner than I was expecting. But again, the texture is great, and when it comes to traveling, it doesn't weigh you down! And at home, I put this on top of my extra-thick mat, and feel like I can do a burpee-heavy workout even though I am on the second floor of my apartment complex!
