Review: Sticky, sturdy and feels a great quality - I picked this mat after much thinking, as I needed a manageable weight/size mat to take to classes as well as use at home. The Prolite iis actually longer, thicker and heavier than my old mat so I am very glad I went with the "lite" version, instead of the original mat, as I think that one would have been too heavy! The very first obvious plus is that the Prolite gives a very sturdy base to support poses, as well as a very sticky grip. I can now hold down dog with confidence for the first time ever, and my hands just stay where they should. It feels lovely in my thoracic spine. I read several reviews about it being slippery, or needing to salt wash a new mat to get it sticky, and so was prepared for that, but I haven't needed to. It was plenty grippy from day one. The only negative is that it rolls up bulkier than my old mat by about an inch in circumference, and weighs a bit more, but I can still easily take it to yoga class. It feels of superb quality. I think it will last for years, so am confident it was worth the hefty (for me) investment cost. My partner has now bought one as well!
Review: Fabulous yoga mat - only slippy at first while you break it in - after that its AMAZING. - This mat is amazing. If you are looking for a new, hard wearing mat, I couldn't recommend this more. It's true, to begin with its really quite slippy, but it doesn't take long to wear in, a week or so of regular practice, and you're there, which isn't a long time considering how long this mat looks like its going to last. I could've sped up the process with the salt and water, but I was lazy and I didn't, but as I said - after a week there was no more slipping. I can only speak for myself, but my mat isn't slippy in the slightest and I expect to have it a long time. I was fairly new to yoga a few months ago, and didn't really understand how much difference a good quality mat could make, but after my last mat falling to bits, I have now been using this mat about 4-5 times a week for over 3 months and I have so much faith that its going to last me years. I love it and I'm so happy I made the investment. Worth every penny.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: does lighter colours get a brownish stains on the edges after many uses?**
A: The lighter colors tend to eventually leave a dull greyish color on the surface of the mat where your hands and feet spend most of their time. Not because you're dirty but because the body's oils and dead skin cells will slough off. Unless you plan to scrub the mat rigorously after every use, I'd stick to a darker color.

**Q: I'm 5'9 what length would be good for me to purchase?**
A: I'm 5'5 and I have just enough room (about 2" on either end) as I lay in Savasana (corpse pose at the end).  I would go with the longer mat if I were you, but that's a personal preference. You would fit on the regular mat (71"), it would just take some adjusting as you recline.  I find I move around on my mat enough from pose to pose that I like a little wiggle room.

**Q: I have read if I scrub Sea Salt on my new mat it will cut down the new oil on my PROlite considerably.  No sun here and cold outside. Can I still?**
A: If possbile pour the sea salt into a pot with water and warm the water dont boil it. Dissolve the salt so it looks like sand then using a rag or sponge gently clean the mat in a cicular motion. With a dry towel wipe off excess water and let dry on a flat surface. Dont scrub with sea salt that is too grainy it will scratch and scuff your matt.

**Q: What is the warranty?**
A: If purchased on Amazon - Manduka, this is lifetime warranty. Please see this link for more information: https://www.manduka.com/lifetime-guarantee

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fabulous yoga mat - only slippy at first while you break it in - after that its AMAZING.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The one and only
*by M***B on 4 March 2014*

If you regularly practice any form of yoga (especially Bikram or Hatha), Pilates and so on and are after a top quality and "future proofed" mat, then a Manduka really is the one and only choice. I wasn't very "au fait" with yoga mats when I asked for a mat on Amazon that was made by 66 Fit, for my birthday last year. That mat was decent enough, but I was going to Hatha yoga quite regulalry near my home in Leeds and it wasn't the grippiest when it got sweat on it. Fortunately the teacher at my Tuesday lunchtime Ashtanga classes recommended the PROlite mat just before Xmas. When I had a quick try on it and found that it was nigh on impossible to slip on it, I knew this purchase had to be made, especially as I was going to start off 2014 by going to around 40 hot yoga classes in January and February alone! I went for the PROlite, on account of it being less bulky than the Pro version. I was after a mat that was easily portable as I combined this purchase with a the fantastic Manduka GO Stead mat and kit carrier which I've also just reviewed. This is lighter the Pro but far from "lightweight"...you really can feel the build quality when practising on it. While it might be a fair bit cheaper than then Pro, it still maintains Manduka's lifetime guarantee, big tick in the future proofed box there then. I must now respond to some of the more short sighted reviews about these mats being slippery when you first get them... Can only assume that these people did not read the information that came with the mat, because it actually recommends treating the mat before you first use it by lightly rubbing salt into the mat with a tiny bit of water. It also states that this is because because the manufacturing of these top qulaity mats naturally leaves a slight film layer on the surface (or words to that effect). It is a very much a sign of the build quality / production process, that this layer of film that is on the mat to start off with and it stands to reason therefore that the mat naturally needs to be "bedded in" a wee bit. And even allowing for this layer of film, I only moved ever so slightly (far less than I did with the 66 Fit mat) in Trikonasana (with sweat on the mat) in the first 2 or 3 Hatha classes i did on it, having done the salt and water treatment. Since then, it's been rock solid. Some people like a good moan though don't they? :-) In summary, if you want to pay a bit more up front for a mat, to take away the need to have to replace it every few months, get a Manduka, it's a total no brainer. You will not be disappointed and you will end up saving money in the long term, compared to buying mutlple mats without lifetime guarnatees!
