Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

Update: 2/27/18: After about 6 uses, I am seeing some indents where my feet and hands normally are placed. Not sure if this is premature wearing or not. Also, it seems this company generates a lot of reviews by offering free samples for giving a review of 100 words or more on their product. I received a pamphlet with my mat on their warranty and review process, posted a review, and then they sent me an e-mail "gift claim form" where I can basically get something for free from them since I provided a review. I purchased this for yoga, based on all the reviews this item has, and so far I've used it 3 times over the past week. It's worked great so far, and here are my thoughts based on other reviews: 1) Squeakiness/noise: Yes, it does make some noise as I move into different poses. I do yoga at home, so it doesn't bug me, but I could see it being a problem in a yoga studio or in a group of people. It doesn't constantly squeak, but as I move my feet around, it does make some noise. I think it's more the mat and the wooden floor it's on which creates the noise. 2) Falling apart: Some reviews mentioned it immediately starts to disintegrate. I have noticed a couple of strands of rubber come off as I unroll it, but it doesn't seem that bad at all. I'll update this if it continues to come apart as other reviews had indicated. 3) Smell: It smells a little bit, kind of like a latex pillow or other similar rubber/plastic product. I only noticed it today when I had my face down on it, so it's not strong at all. 4) Movement: I haven't noticed it moving around at all. It sticks to my wooden floor pretty well, so no complaints there. 5) Squishiness: Some people have said it's too thick and they sink into the mat. I haven't noticed this at all. Prior to this mat, I was using a thin yoga mat and any time I was on my hands or knees for a long time it was very uncomfortable. This mat still allows me to do the poses, but much more comfortably than before.
