Disappointing smell
I've been trying to air out this mat for days, but the strong rubber smell just won't go away. It makes my practice unenjoyable because of the odor. The grip seems fine, but the smell is a major drawback for me.

Customer reviews
What customers say: This mat offers reliable grip, comfortable cushioning, and easy cleaning. Some note an initial strong rubber scent or find it heavier than expected.
★★★★☆
Good grip and feel
The mat's natural grip is effective, and the feel of the rubber is quite pleasant under hands and feet. I opted for the Purple, which is a nice shade. My only minor quibble is the initial strong rubber scent, but it dissipates.
★★★★★
Top-tier yoga mat
I've tried a few different mats over the years, and this Manduka eKO Lite is definitely a standout. The textured grip truly prevents slipping, even when I'm sweating. I also appreciate the closed-cell construction, which makes it super easy to clean and keeps it from absorbing moisture like my old mat did. The natural rubber gives just the right amount of rebound for my joints, making my practice much more comfortable. I went with the Long 79" size and the Charcoal color, both are perfect.
★★★★☆
Solid purchase
Excellent grip and cushioning, though it is heavier than I initially thought.
★★★★★
Love the grip
Solid traction for my hot yoga classes, zero sliding. My old mat always had me adjusting.
