Yoga Knee Pad Cushion for Knees, Elbows, Wrists, Extra-Thick, 15mm Thick, 24x10 Inches, Designed for Durable Comfort During Exercise

I have been using it for yoga class. I have not had pain on my knees. My yoga mat is thin, so when I had to put my knees down or do half split I felt I was hurting my knees. Now it feels so much better. Great mat.

I just received this pad and I love it already! It is not only great at giving that extra support needed for the knees, but I also tried it under my hips and vertically for my spine. It has made such a difference. The padding gives just the right amount of support - not too thick and not too hard. I haven't had any issues with it slipping either. I am so happy with this purchase!***This review is for the 3/8 inch thick mat - I just noticed that Amazon must have reorganized the reviews wrong when this new mat was added to their site.***However, I did also order the 3/4 inch mat and I really like it as well so I would also give it 5 stars. I can't roll it up or fold it as I can the thinner version but it is much better on my knees. I find these mats a lot more convenient than using traditional yoga props like blankets - etc. for certain asanas because I don't have to refold or put in the washer - I just wipe it quickly when I clean my yoga mat. I own many props and especially when I have limited time, these mats really come in handy. I would suggest owning both since you are able to manipulate the thinner version for more things (I love it under my hands for Adho Mukha Svanasana because it adds a certain bit of stability for me as well as making it easier on my joints) but the thicker version provides much needed support for those who really need it.I have arthritis in my left knee and was in terrible pain until I started practicing yoga. Over time the pain has greatly decreased but I always use padding for them while practicing to take extra care which makes my discomfort barely noticeable if at all. I admit that sometimes I didn't feel like bringing out my blanket for my knees, but using this mat is so much easier that now I use padding for my knees every time - which has made a huge difference for me, especially now that SukhaMat has put out this thicker version.

And it does not skate around like the separate puck-type knee pads. Great for yoga and those with tired knees!!!!

The knee pads at my gym are too hard for my senior knees. This one is softer but has good support. Still trying to get the curl out but not a major issue. Love the color I chose.

This is a great product for anyone who has trouble with their knees or wrists during yoga. There is plenty of padding without upsetting your position.

I finally reached the point in my yoga practice where a folded towel under my knees was no longer providing enough support to keep my practice pain free, so I decided to upgrade to this knee pad and I am extremely happy I did! I use this in a fast moving vinyasa class that includes lots of kneeling poses and it is the perfect size to support one or both knees in every pose that requires it while still being short enough that it doesn't get in the way of my standing series. I should clarify that my knee pain was from wear and tear from a daily yoga practice coupled with extremely bony knees--I haven't had an injury/surgery so I am not sure how well it would work in that case, but as someone who just needs a bit of extra support beyond the thickness of my mat, this was perfect. I purchased the dark blue color and when I opened it for the first time there was a bit of a smell but it dissipated within a few hours. I have also only been using it for a short time, so I can't speak to its durability, but it appears to be pretty dense foam and it springs back to its original shape after every class, so I am hopeful that it will last for a good long while.

I bought this pad to alleviate knee pain during yoga, Pilates and for activities around the house when I need to kneel done. I've used it several times and it did exactly what I needed it to do. I was able to get down on my knees without pain. It takes it a while to unroll out of the packaging, but the quality is great. Very sturdy and will be quite durable over the years.

These are the best purchases. I bought 2 for the family to use. I can’t believe how great they are. They come rolled up tighly, so I was worried they wouldn’t stay flat when I needed to lay it across the mat, but somehow, it does! We went from achy knees and frustration with not keeping balance in poses, to not even thinking about knee pain when in a pose. That small difference changed me from being distracted by pain and wiggling around to avoid pain (and thinking yoga is just not for me) to striking a pose on my knees and being able to focus on posture and balance like a pro. It gave me the confidence I needed simply by taking my pain away from kneeling in the floor. Wonderful purchases!
