The Harbinger 340100 Durafoam Exercises Mat is a double-sided, rolling, twenty-four by seventy-two inch mat which is advertised to be designed for stretching, yoga, pilates and other exercise routines. This mat does in fact work better than most for a wide variety of exercises. It does not slip when moving about and it is just cushiony enough to protect your back while doing abs work, but not too thick to make you imbalanced while doing yoga.

However, this mat does tend to stick to your skin. It’s worst feature, and perhaps a deal-breaker if you have a good nose, is the extremely strong odor of rubber and chemicals which the mat emits. The scent is so potent that it will transfer to your clothing and skin when you use it.  The smell also does not go away after airing the mat out or after owning and using it for several months.
