Good basic exercise mat

Amazon doesn't provide much detail about this mat. Mine just arrived so here's some extra info. It is 22" wide by 70" long and 3/8" thick. The integrated velcro straps work very well, keeping it rolled neatly for storage.

Great Mat

Reviewer: Lorraine A. Spack,

I am a pilates instructor and find this to be an excellent mat. Others are to thin and do not allow you to roll through your spine as you should in pilates. This mat is nice and dense so you will not hurt your back, yet lightweight and easy to transport with the velcro straps. Also comes in great colors.

Perfect for Pilates

I spent awhile looking for a mat because so many of them seem to be horrid. I'm very pleased that I chose this one. I've been using it for a couple of months and have no complains except I'm not sure how to clean it (there were no instructions on the packaging). It is very comfortable for moves that require rolling and does not slip. The attached straps are very handy and I have no trouble carting it around to class and back. The only difference I noticed is that the color (I purchased the blue one) is much darker than it appears online.

Just bought 8 for in-home studio

I tested out and researched different mats til I was blue in the face and this one won out for several reasons:

1) 3/8" thick mats cushion your spine enough for "rolling like a ball," but are lighter and better for yoga than the thicker mats. 3/8" is the minimum thickness that is sufficient for Pilates I would say.

2) The mats don't squeak underfoot. This is why I returned ten mats of a different brand to a sporting goods store!

3) It is possible to find an equivalent mat of the aeromat brand for a bit cheaper, but I found the Stott mats were just too pretty to resist. I got sage, but I think they all look nice.

4) They are durable. Other mats I tried out were already ripped - brand new. Dig your heal in once and they probably tear badly. The texture and quality of these mats probably guard against tears.

Great Pilates Mat!

I'm very happy with the Stott Pilates mat. It is durable, lays flat, with no chemical odor. It is a good thickness for pilates providing good cushining for your tail bone and hip bones and it is not too squishy, either. The attached velcro straps keep the mat nicely rolled up and it is not overly bulky to tote around. I highly recommend this mat for pilates over the thinner yoga mats.
