Gorilla Mats Premium Large Exercise Mat – 6x4', 7x4', x7x5', 8x4', 10x4' (1/4" Thick) Ultra Durable, Non-Slip, Workout Mat for Instant Home Gym Flooring – Great on Any Floor – Use With or Without Shoes

I bought this mat to place under my half rack. I don’t like horse stall mats because they outright stink of chemical odors. This Gorilla Mat has zero odor. It is thick, durable and comfortable and provides a no-slip grip. It is large and perfectly-sized for placing under squat, half or full-sized racks and other big equipment. It also looks very nice in a deep gray color. Best of all, it’s non-toxic, so I can put it inside my home gym without the negative health issues of toxicant off-gassing that come with almost every other mat on the market. It’s worth the price. I am very pleased with this Yo Gorilla exercise mat.

So far I am very happy with this mat. I'm not over active at the moment, but I'm looking to get back into my old exercise routines. Space constraints in my house have left me with the garage as my only home option. I bought this mat so I wouldn't have to be doing push-ups, crunches, etc. directly on the concrete. 6'x4' is a good size for me (I'm 5'6"). It's a solid mat, by which I mean it's not meant to be a cushion for tumbling or grappling (although I've had Jiu Jitsu partners would would prefer something this solid), but great for protecting equipment from concrete and flooring from just about everything. The bottom non-slip material is holding the mat in place on the polished concrete in my garage. Currently the top of the mat is also fairly non-slip while dry. Once enough sweat hits it, it gets a little slippery. My mat is still pretty new and the information that came with it said this would be the case. It takes some time to break in. The information sheet also gives some advice for how to break it in faster. And while we're on the topic... The sellers seem to be very engaging. Once the mat shipped I received an email with an attached pdf for care and cleaning. Similar information is included in the package the mat came in. I appreciate the added effort to help me get the most out of their product. Also included in this purchase: 1 microfiber cloth for cleaning, 2 velcro straps for keeping the mat rolled up, and 1 slip case for protecting the rolled up mat. The only thing I would love to have is a carrying strap or handle on the slip case. It's super minor and I don't count it as a negative. So far, I am very happy with this purchase.

I bought Gorilla Mats late last year because I was looking for good quality mats for my home gym. I have been working out to P90X, RUSHFIT and Body Beast at home for years . I also have a full pull-up & dip station in my livingroom. In a nutshell, I was looking for a mat that is tough, build to last and provide enough support to protect my joints and floors. After extensive research online & Amazon, I came across Gorilla Mats. I liked the fact that it's a small family business with many positive reviews. They are not cheap but judging from the testimonials I've read online, the mats are made out of quality materials. They also come with Lifetime warranty. I decided to buy two of them, they were shipped quickly and arrived at my door within 2 days. I'm glad to report that It's one of the best investments I've made for my home gym (right up there with my Powerblocks U90). You can tell that Gorilla Mats are made of quality materials the moment you lay it on the floor. The weight of the mat and patterns on the bottom-side does a decent job at helping the mat stay in place during exercises. They're thick, durable and most importantly, I feel safe jumping on the mats when I do plyometric exercises! I also love the Gorilla logo on the mat (See picture). I also want to give a shout out to Zach at Gorilla Mats. He was great at answering my questions. The PDF he sends out with FAQs about the mats is also a nice touch. These value adds really gave me assurance that the folks behind Gorilla Mats are passionate about their business. If you're looking to build your home gym, give Gorilla Mats a shot. It'll be one of the best and necessary investments you'll ever make!

This mat along with a few other brands sat in my cart for MONTHS. I read review after review after review. I finally settled on gorilla mats for 2 reasons 1. If it gets messed up they replace it! Say whaaaat?! Yep if you’re gonna spend $140 thAt is Totally a reason to purchase from this company. 2. They are a small family owned business. That’s very important in these days of big box stores taking over our landscape. I purchased an $80 mat from lululemon that’s total junk and no where near the size of this one. It’s probably 1/4 the size of this one. Is it slippery? Yes , but it says after use that will fade. Much like every other yoga mat I’ve purchased. If I’m doing any yoga poses or push ups or something I just place a yoga mat down for my hands.It is a sturdy thick mat I use it over carpet An it moves a little but I do tons of hiit work outs with lots of jumping around. I just place a 10 lb weight on 2 of the 4 sides and it stays in place perfectly. It comes with 2 straps so you can roll it up and out of the way. Oh yeah the best part, it lays flat from the 1st time you unroll it. That was a huge sell for me. My lululemon mat does not, and that is a total trip hazard. This size was perfect for doing broad jumps, burpees, lateral jumps, jump rope. Basically any exercise. For reference I’m 5‘4“ and 117 pounds. Support small businesses!!

Love the size of this mat. I only wish it were a few mils thicker. It's still good for shock absorption. I use it on a wood floor and I can do situps and yoga without pain. Comes with a drawstring bag and a workout towel. Overall im pretty happy with it so far. I'll see how it holds up over time.

Use it to workout on. Haven’t noticed any issues when wearing shoes. Very easy to clean and comfortable to lay on.

This mat does not match the length of an equivalent Gorilla mat which I purchased 3 years ago. (This mat measures about 1.5 inches shorter.) I purchased this mat to be placed adjacent to the previously owned mat (equivalent item), however due to their length discrepancy a significant gap in the overall effective mat area is present. I am quite disappointed with this purchase, and will not be recommending your company to peers.

Update: Jan 10th. I kept the mat outside for 6 weeks and that seems to have diminished the odor by a lot. It still has an odor if you put your nose right next to it, but the odor is not filling up the space anymore. Just unboxed it, Nov 27, . Seems okay. -Unrolled mostly flat. -Dimensions 10'x4' are accurate. -It does have an odor. I've put it outside for a now, hopefully the degassing goes away. -For storage purposes, the diameter of the mat when rolled up by a person (not the factory tight rolled) is 10 inches. -The factory rolled diameter is about 6 inches. But makes the inner edge want to curl. Is it really worth rolling it that tight? Does it actually save money for shipping? Will post an update about the off gassing after a few days.

Using this mat for bodyweight and jumprope exercises. Very grippy rounded texture on the bottom side. Grippy up top too. Big impact difference jumping on the mat and wooden floor, so it's good cushioning. It does have a faint smell when new and has a layer of weird oil? One spot like another user posted had an oil stain where the cloth is packed. I recommend cleaning it before first use because it feels really weird.

This exercise mat is perfect. No complaints. If you're looking for an excersie mat, this is the brand to go with.
