Customer Reviews manduka eKO SuperLite Yoga Mat

Excellent quality, light weight and packable. A superior product at a fair price.

Very nice mat as a top cover on the mat provided in gym room. Easy to carry everywhere and really light in weight. Another thing is the mat is non-slip on both side, so will not fold up easily. Last but not least , I love it's color, Cayo, my favourite

Lots of details here to help you make an informed decision: I began practicing ashtanga in March 2016 (after 20 years prior of noncommitted dabbling in other styles). I started with a 6mm toxic mat, then a 3mm toxic mat, then I wanted something light weight and with an even lower profile and relatively no toxicity. The eKo SuperLite is basically a rubber sheet. It took me a few sessions to become accustomed to the extreme grip and thinness but I really like this mat now. I am a fan of firm mattresses, low pillows, minimalist slippers and running shoes with no puffiness, and I like to feel the floor. I have no concerns about cushioning for my joints because I believe the firmer the surface, the better to build bone density and strength in the joints. I also like being able to put things away in as small a space as possible so this mat fits the bill in all respects based on my preferences. I start my practice with the eKo SuperLite for standing postures and then I cover the mat with my rug for the rest of primary series. I am happy with my purchase and love the color.

I purchased this mat as a gift for my girlfriend and for myself! Traveling in March for a yoga retreat out of the country and lugging our Manduka Pro was a no go. This mat has super grip and is ultra thin to easily pack away. We are super excited not only for our trip, but, to pack this awesome mat!

This mat gets the job done. It's light, foldable and ultra-portable. It's very thin, so if you have joint issues when you are on your knees, then I suggest having a folded towel available as a cushion.

Bought this for traveling, light enough to just pop in the suitcase, unroll and practice anywhere

I love a light & foldable mat. I take it to class & I love it for travel.

These are the absolute best. I have one clean one that i take to studios to put on top of their mats (hygiene), one that I don't mind getting dirty that I take to festivals and put on the grass, one that I keep on hand for my significant other. They are amazingly light to travel with (even in carry on). FYI I use the non-rubber (more fabric-y) side up.

Perfect for me. Good grip. Rubber odor does linger.

Easy to pack and carry with a really nice non-skid surface.

I bought 4 of these for gifts and ended up keeping one for myself! Light, flexible and provides non-slippery surface...and perfect to take on trips! Love love love!

Just returned from 2 wks trekking Nepal & this mat went everywhere with me. Very light & easily strapped to my backpack. It served me from rooftop to meditation room to high mountain meadow. Very thin but has to be to carry on my back trekking. Also very tough & nicely sticky for nonslip grip.

I bought my Manduka eKO Travel Yoga Mat 1 month ago and I am using it every single day. I even used it while travelling to Europe, and it fit into a carry on suitcase. I first had to get used to the stickyness of the mat (earlier I used a towel on top of the yoga mat, to not be in contact with plastic), and the smell of rubber, but now the smell has subsided and I love that it is sticky enough that even when I sweat it still has enough grip. I also think the color is great and gives me energy every morning.

This mat has changed my life!! It is so light but has the same fantastic quality and performance as my other manduka mats!! Can fold it into any shape to pack in a bag or take on a plane. I love it!!

This is my second eKO Superlite Manduka Mat. My first one has been about 4 years and it's still in a very good condition, easy to take care and very simple to bring anywhere. First time use, this mat may feel a bit slippery but once u washed it then it will give u nice grip. I really really love it!

I have been using the eKO SuperLite Travel Mat as my every-day mat for several years. It provides excellent grip with essentially no padding when used on a hard surface. I found that having no padding was a bonus as it makes me more aware of how I am contacting the surface; consciously adjusting to avoid point-source loading.

Great light mat for yogis on the move, super grip, fold or bend options - highly recommended

I love the lightness of this mat. It is absolutely perfect to travel with! It folds up so nicely in my luggage. It is of course incredibly thin, but that allows me to be more mindful of my practice to make sure my joints are not being injured if I am practicing on a hard surface. The grip is great and gets more sticky as I sweat. I cannot wait to use it upon my next travels to Fiji next month!

Great mat. It is thin but provides a ton of grip and stability. This mat makes me understand what people meant when they said that Yoga is meant to be done on the ground.

I use this mat not just for travel, but for every yoga class. It's a breeze to carry around and it's got a fantastic grip. Very well made. My other expensive yoga mats are now buried in the closet.

Great Mat, easy to carry around, great color options and great design. You can't beat that grip! Just right!

I love MANDUKA mats. I live in Canada. I had to ask my sis in law to give it to me as a gift. Bless her for being so generous! She bought me the Eko Lite but, it is too heavy to bring when I'm travelling. Aside from being heavy, EVERYTHING ELSE about the mat is AWESOME! That's why I HAD TO BUY the travel Eko Lite!! Love the products!!

Easy to travel with and doesn't take up room in the house. It actually makes me want to do yoga since I travel often, no excuses. The grip is perfect and I use it on a rug in my house. Haven't tried on hard floor yet but I'm sure it will be more standing poses vs. knees for this reason.

I bought this after trying my daughters mat. What I love the most is that my towel doesn't move. Makes me nutty when my towel crunches up and with this mat I no longer have that issue. It's light and easy to carry with my water and car keys Love it
