I find this dark plum-colored mat attractive, sticky and a stable source for downward dog poses, upward bow variations, shoulder stands and everything else. It's long enough for me to keep my entire body on the mat when lying down (I'm 5'4). It's a good, basic product. The mat didn't even have a strong "new mat" smell when freshly opened, which was a plus.
My husband uses the mat for more conventional workouts - as a base for crunches and push ups. We've even used it for tai chi and qi gong.
At a good price point, this product's usefulness lies in between a light traveling yoga mat and a thick plush one. I found it too big to fold into my suitcase when I took a flight (actually, it could have been squished down to fit, but took up more room than I had to spare). So I do have to travel without a mat when I fly.
On the other hand, the mat is on the thin side when using over a bare, non-carpeted flooring. I have tried some of my friends' thicker mats, and those are much more comfortable on the heels of the hands in sideways planks and frequent knee-bearing transitions.
In a way, it might be better to have two mats - one light, thin one for traveling, and one thick, plush one for home use. I have actually ordered a second mat for my husband that I plan to use when he is not, doubling up on the mats for extra cushy comfort.
However, if you are limited in space or budget, or otherwise only need one good fitness/yoga mat, this mat is a solid choice.
Recommended.

I'm slightly disappointed with this. My hands tend to get sweaty and slip while in certain yoga positions (down dog, etc.), and I had hoped this mat would alleviate that, but it doesn't. My hands and bare feet slip on this too. I wear weight lifting gloves now to prevent slipping. I still use the mat as it helps to somewhat cushion my body and my lower back, but would not purchase another like it. It may work better on a bare floor than on carpet. There are 2 of these in a local recreation center where I also workout and they are fine there.

good quality mat, stays firm on the floor, gives good friction when doing Downward facing dog, sun salutations and other hard positions.

Great mat for the price
Good buy, I've been using this mat for almost a year now (although not on a daily basis) and it is still in great shape. Would recommend it.

Not very durable
Though the mat is good and definitely one of the least expensive, it is not durable. The first time I used it, I was wearing exercise shoes and after I finished some core workouts,... Read more

Great price, great product
Most other retailers charge significantly for the same product. This mat has served me well and it a great bargain! I ended buying a couple others as gifts for friends.

I love my valeo yoga mat. It doesn't have the terrible plastic/rubber smell that other cheaply made mats have and it "sticky" enough that I don't find myself slipping around. Read more

Thin but usable
The mat is rather thinner than I thought it would be, ok for most yoga poses, but hard if your knee has to be on the floor.

yoga mat met expectations, very reasonable price
pretty simple product, but has to be easily rolled and stored, unroll and lie flat, and provide sufficient cushion over a hard service. Read more
