Perfect Travel Mat
I purchased this mat for a two-week international trip to do yoga in my hotel room. I wanted something that was able to fit into a checked bag, wouldn’t bunch during use and provided a good grip. This mat was a perfect fit for a 25″ checked bag so that I was able to loosely lay it on top without having to make any creases and the weight was minimal. The mat quality was top notch and the rubber texture provided excellent grip. I don’t have particularly sensitive knees, so the 1.5mm cushion was sufficient on both carpet and harder floor surfaces.At home I use a Lululemon Reversible Mat which provides 5mm of cushion and has an open-cell surface that absorbs moisture, whereas the Manduka is 1.5mm and has a closed-cell surface to prevent moisture from being absorbed. Even with the mat being closed-cell I never experienced any issues with slipping, though I can see it being problematic if you sweat a lot or if you’re doing hot yoga. The closed-cell construction is similar to the Manduka Pro and ProLite, so if you’ve used those mats you know what to expect and likely have a towel handy for hot yoga. I suspect most of the negative reviews about slipping are from people who are unfamiliar with Manduka mats.The most direct competitor to this mat would be the Jade Voyager which sells at a similar price point and is also 1.5mm; however it’s a full 3 inches shorter (68″ vs 71″). Being on the taller side, I dislike practicing on shorter mats so the Manduka won out in that aspect. Additionally I was able to see a Voyager at a local retailer and didn’t feel like the build quality was as good as the Manduka. Other options include the Manduka Pro Travel Mat 2.5mm (~$75) and the Jade Travel Yoga Mat 3mm (~$70). These mats offer additional padding if you need a mat that’s softer on your knees; however they also weight more (2.4lbs and 3lbs respectively). Overall, I think the Manduka EKO Superlite finds the perfect balance for size, weight, and grip for anyone looking to bring their yoga practice with them on their travels.

Perfect for travelling!
Bought this mat so that I can practice anywhere I travel… and it works perfectly. I keep reading about the smell of the mat being an issue and, frankly, if the smell is what you have to worry about during a yoga session, then you are blessed. I tend to have all kinds of other distractions like loud sounds, people, and small spaces… but hey, live your life.What I love about this mat is that it is foldable and fits in most carry-ons. AND you can unfold it and any creases disappear during use and can be eliminated with a quick roll-up. Which it does easily.It is stickier than my other mat (by Gaiam) and I can easily grip the mat and do everything I do on my regular mat.I find that it works best on hard floors. The grip on carpeting or towels does not work as well. I used it on a carpet and it kept sliding, so I moved to a brick floor and it worked wonderfully. That being said, if you need cushioning in your mat, this is not it. This is thin! Which is why I like it. I do have some sensitivity in my knees, but after a few uses of the mat, I hardly noticed it.

I love this mat! The mat is non-slip and provides excellent grip for both hands and feet. It is very easy and pleasant to travel with it or to take with me for outdoor yoga. I love the color and material.

Definitely a thin travel mat
I decided to invest in a travel mat for an upcoming trip because I didn’t want to check a back that could fit my regular mat.People raved about this mat and I somehow thought it would be a little more cushiony than it actually is.My view of the mat may be skewed by how I use it: mostly for Pilates and evening yin yoga. Someone who uses it mostly for regular vinyasa might feel differently.Pros:1. Very thin and lightweight make it easy to fold and fit in a carryon bag.2. Extremely high quality4. Very sticky. Stickier than a regular mat.Cons:1. Very thin. I layered a towel mat over for yin and the mat was still uncomfortable.2. Pricy. If I was going to use it a lot, the price would be worth it, but the mat was honestly so uncomfortable that I’m not sure I’d want to. Maybe a cheaper, more cushy travel mat with less grip might suit my needs better.Overall, the mat is fine. It’s just my needs it didn’t meet, however I wanted to provide a counterbalance to people raving about it because it might not fit your needs either.

So good I bought it twice
I lost my original Manduka travel mat last year while I was, well, traveling. It’s not the cheapest mat, so I decided to do some comparison shopping before repurchasing the same model. After reading tons of Amazon reviews and online articles about travel yoga mats, I ordered this and two other highly recommended mats—the others were significantly less expensive. In the end, I came back to this one—it was the most flexible and easy to pack in any type of bag, it was just thick enough to cushion my joints when placed on a hotel carpet, and it has the most perfect grippy surface of any other yoga mat I’ve ever used, travel or otherwise. I knew it was durable because I’d taken my original mat on virtually every trip I’d taken for about five years of very heavy travel. It’s completely worth the investment—10/10 recommend!

good lightweight choice & color
This is the best travel mat so far I used. It is worth paying that money. It is light and has a great grip. However, when sweating, I felt that my hand was sliding a bit. The mat itself stayed on the floor firmly.The only thing one would need to compromise is the thinness. I felt that my knees would want more cushion feeling. But again the weight of the mat is great, so I used thick socks as padding for my knees.The smell is a little bit there, but it goes away with time, also if a mat spray is used. I guess this is quite natural for every synthetic product.I wish they had like a thing bag or extra grips to use when the mat is folded.

Exactly as described: super light and extremely grippy. The natural rubber smell was not off-putting and it dissipated in a few days. Will buy again as gifts.

Yo buscaba un yoga mat para viajar, que fuera ligero y que se pudiera doblar facilmente, y que además tuviera un tamaño adecuado (no más pequeño de lo normal), y que tuviera buena adherencia. Este producto cumple perfectamente con lo que buscaba. Es muy finito así que para la práctica diaria no sería muy cómodo, pero para viajar es perfecto. El olor no es un problema, y no he te ido problemas de marcas al doblarlo, o por suciedad.
