GXMMAT Large Exercise Mat 6'x4'/6'x5'/6'x6'(7mm), Thick Workout Mats for Home Gym Flooring, Extra Wide Non-Slip Durable Cardio Mat, Shoe Friendly, Perfect for Plyo, MMA, Jump Rope, Weights, Fitness

I was looking for a mat for my home gym, read other reviews and ordered this baby! I have to say that I was really impressed with how it arrived. It arrives fully wrapped with velcro straps that hold the mat closed in its storage bag (I didn't expect a storage bag but it's a great addition to allow for rolling up if you don't want it out all the time!) An extra bonus?? There's a pair of lifting gloves included!! Who includes anything as a bonus anymore??The mat itself is easy to wipe down, doesn't slip and marks from equipment aren't left after your workouts. It's not thickly padded so if you're looking for something with a the give to protect your knees when jump roping or something like that, you won't quite get that. However, for yoga and pilates, I put my yoga mat on top and it provides a really nice, cushy surface.As far as sizing, it fits my Flybird bench with room to spare. If you're looking for a super large basement mat, this may not be for you but at a measurement of 4' x 6', there's plenty of room to work out and protect your floor. For side to side movements like a squat side shuffle, I move on the diagonal.Overall, 5 stars on this one!

I ordered this 6' x 4' mat as I wanted to do cardio and yoga classes at home. I've been using it for a few days and I have found it to be all I was hoping for. I wear tennis shoes for my cardio classes and yoga socks for yoga, although my feet grip well without the socks -- it's just my preference. The mat really is top-quality. There are no rough edges. Even the label with the company's name sewn is neatly and perfectly stitched into one corner. It's a nice thick mat and stays in place on my wall-to-wall carpeting without damaging the carpet. It is substantial under my feet, yet light enough for me to roll up and carry out of the room when I am finished using it. It comes in a carry-bag and includes a pair of gloves, although I have not used to gloves yet. This seller also provides "Lifetime After-Sales Service" once you register your name and order number with them. I did have an issue, as the first mat I received was damaged in shipping. I contacted the seller immediately and they immediately out a replacement mat. No argument and no hassle. Do I recommend the GXMMAT mat? YES! The mat is superior and so is the Customer Service!

Since COVID I've been working out from home in my tiny NYC apartment. I sweat A LOT and have hardwood floors, so when I work out I would start slipping on the floor and no sneakers (I have so many..) helped. Then I invested in this mat. I know it might seem a bit steep, but SO worth it. I was worried about durability because some of the reviews showed wear and tear after a few weeks, but it seemed like customer service was great so I went for it. I have had this now for 4 months and not a scratch or a dent (except for the ones my cats work so hard on causing...). I use it for 2 hours a day, 6 days a week, for lifting, kickboxing, bodyweight exercises and it's perfect for all. It's not too thick so I don't feel like i'm sinking into it, but just thick enough so I can do core work on the floor without a towel, and my knees feel so much better after kickboxing, than on the hardwood floor. Cleans easily - wipe down with a damn towel.My only (tiny) issue is that when I do kickboxing it slightly moves - just a few inches right or left. I blame the hardwood floor, as the mat does have a bottom surface that should be able to keep it in place. I am moving to a different apartment soon and hoping the new floor won't have the same issue. If anyone has the same issue and found a solution, would love to hear.

We have been hit with a pandemic, we are required to stay at home except for essential activities: grocery store, gas, hospital, and outdoor activity. Going to gyms is not considered essential. I was watching my husband do a workout video and the instructor had an exercise mat. And I thought "That's exactly what I need!" I have carpet so exercise is a challenge especially since we do not wear shoes in the home so I was working out barefoot. I came to Amazon looking for the mat that I saw in the instructor's video and saw this item as well. I decided on this one instead and I'm glad I did. It is perfect. It does not take up too much space but it is enough space for two people to work out comfortably. I can now work out in shoes and I feel steady, it almost makes me feel like I'm in the gym. It is sturdy and I did take away one star because it does slide on carpet. If you exercise really hard, it will slide without something holding it down while on carpet. However, this has not been too much of an issue. Its shock absorbent and my knees thank it. I would recommend this. I have had it for two weeks and have used it every day, first day, it was slippery but I broke it in very quickly simply by working out on it. Since we are all stuck in our homes, if you want to workout with a more solid base, this might be helpful for you.
