Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

This mat is not as thick as I hoped it would be, though it is definitely thicker than others on the market. Apparently I need more "cushion" when I park myself down on the floor to exercise than other people do. Also, the elastic transport loops, which hold the mat in place when it is rolled up, ripped on one side after the 2nd time using the product, though that did not compromise the quality of the mat itself. UPDATE: The company contacted me after seeing my review and offered to send me another mat to try, at their expense, inclusive of shipping. They also sent me a new elastic transport loop. Though the mat they sent was less cushiony than the original HemingWeigh Extra Thick Foam Exercise Mat I ordered, when I put it underneath the HemingWeigh Extra Thick Foam Mat, I achieved the level of softness I needed. The new elastic transport loop is holding up well. The first one must have been a "dud." It happens. I'd like to say that the company representative couldn't have been nicer or more sincere. If other companies demonstrated this level of service and committment toward their customers, we would have many more happy consumers out there. I would CERTAINLY be enthusiastic about buying ANYTHING this company sells in the future.
