How does this work with the manduka pro black mat? I didn't like the equa towels

I use this with Lululemon's "The Mat" without any issue. I've never used the Manduka Pro, but think it would work well--the rubber grip dots on the bottom of the towel get good traction on the stickiness of the mat without digging into it, and my towel generally stays put through all 90 minutes of hot yoga class.

To me they work okay, I'm sure they work better with the "sticky" mats but compared to not having a towel or using a regular bath towel is like night and day. I perspire quite a bit in class and always had trouble keeping my feet planted regardless of what mat I used. The Yogitoes mat towel has been by far the best solution. Like everyone says dampen the towel a little bit for the best results.

Unfortunately, I found this towel became a slippery as my mat and so after washing, gave it to a relative to try who said they keep it for travel (but not due to non-slip qualities)

I've used one both at home at now we have one at the office. Have never had the roll come off. I have one one rubber cap come off on the one at home but a little super glue and now it's all good. Because it is metal if your towels aren't tight enough you could give one end a little bend in. But we've had no issues at the office and we go thru a roll in about two days.

Bona starfiber pads are more like a towel feeling & I use it with bona cleaner & bona microber I use it dry without any cleaner.

It's not a towel. It doesn't absorb. It's more of a scrub cloth. Think of a flexible loofa. Great for lifting dead skin.

I didn't. I bought the towel because of the great reviews, but my experience was somewhat worse than most others. I did take the seller up on his offer to refund the price and purchase somebody else's, and he did that without question. I gave the product two stars, but he definitely gets five stars for service. I got the Viking towel, and one is sufficient to dry each of my cars.

There are different sizes of towels. The mat towel is Lon enough to cover your entire yoga mat. The smaller towel is perfect for wiping sweat and is a little leger than a kitchen hand towel. I have both sizes and find them equally useful.

The standard is 5 mm thick, according to their website http://www.manduka.com/us/shop/categories/products/mats/eko-mat-71-2-0/

We are using the Costco Paper towels - it is very large- it fits well and we never had any problem with the blade. All our friends are impressed!

See Manduka website for more detailed description of products - http://www.manduka.com/us/shop/categories/products/mats/?ddI bought the eKO Lite a little while ago because I was concerned about weight. It has a heavy natural rubber smell (and I like it, but others don't), but it will go away. It's still a little thick to fold, but the eKO SuperLite, at only 1/16 in., does so easily.

I have used soft scrub with bleach directly on the mat with a brush. No problems.

I have a manduka and it fits just perfect. As long as the mat is not oversized it should fit just fine.

You may want to contact Manduka customer service to see if they would give lifetime warranty for mats puchased from other sites. I have the Black mat pro and it is the best yoga mat I have ever used. It may be pricey but worth every penny. I will not use anything else.

I had the manufacturer replace mine because it of the stains. My new pink mat is better but to prevent any light colored yoga may from staining you must wipe it down on a regular basis. If you're not using manduka's mat wash, which is a spray that you'll get a discount code to order when you receive your mat... Then simply wipe your may down with a simple water and white vinegar home made cleanser. Just put about one tablespoon into every cup of warm water. Use a soft towel to clean. It's really been easy to prevent it from staining as long as your storing your mat properly and keeping it clean- for sanitation purposes it's recommended you clean it after every other use or so.

I think it is. I sweat a lot so a normal towel just doesn't cut it. I have a "yogitoes" towel as well but I much prefer the Manduka towel to the point that I no longer use the yogitoes towel and only keep it in case my Manduka towel is dirty. I haven't used the yogitoes towel for six months. I highly recommend the Manduka towel. It is light weight and drys quickly. If you sweat like I do, get the extra long version to get more water retention.

Sorry i thought this was for the thicker Eko mat, I haven't used the lite one much but i didn't have that problem when I used it.
