GoFit
Usually ships in 24 hours IPhone 3G used's review (Is a GoFit Mat fit for a dog?) 『I was very happy with the quality of the mat. It is such tough material, yet comfortable, I have no excuses now for not exercising. I have been considering buying another one, cutting it in half and making 2 slip covers to use for my dog's bed(s). I think it would last longer than many beds made just for dogs. She would love that! 』
(Great mat, worth the price) 『I've never done mat work before (bought this with "Pilates for Weight Loss" video), and this is perfect for me! I love it. It is a very comfortable thickness for the exercises I do on my back and while sitting. It is also very forgiving; I have knee problems, but this mat is thick enough that there is even enough cushion when I do the stretches on my knees -- no pain!
When I was deciding which mat to buy, I thought that $35 was a little high (especially since I'm on a budget). I ultimately decided that the investment for a superior (and much thicker mat) was worth the extra money (and I also justified that it was cheaper than joining a gym!). I don't regret this purchase for a minute. Highly recommended!
The ONLY downside is that it's a little bulky to store, but that's to be expected, given the thickness. We live in a small apartment in NYC, so it fits (folded in half) behind our loveseat very easily. Other than re-rolling and putting it back in the box every time (ugh), I'm not sure where else I could keep it!』
(Good Cushion but bad for commuters) 『I use this mat for pilates and it offers good support for lower back, really confortable. The only drawback is that I don't have a car and is too bulky to carry around,also I haven't been able to find a bag for the same reason, too big! other than that i really like it.』
(Great for pilates) 『Very thick mat -- godd for supporting the spine during Pilates, but probably too thick for yoga. Also a bit thick to carry back and forth to the gym, but if you want one for home use, it's great.』
(Excellent pilates mat) 『This mat is perfect for pilates. It is thick enough to give excellent stability and comfort. I would highly recommend this product to anyone looking for a good pilates mat. Well worth the money!』 『The GoFit Pilates Mat is a professional grade mat just like the ones used in Pilates studios. It is an absolute must for performing all the various forms, exercises and methods pertaining to Pilates in total comfort and style. The GoFit mat is a full½ inch thick with closed cell air pockets to provide a soft yet durable design. It also has a ribbed surface for a better feel during use and to provide a non-slip performance surface. It measures a full 2 feet wide by 6 feet long.』

Yogitoes
Usually ships in 24 hours IPhone 3G used's review (Measures 9 inches flat and stretches up to 30 inches = LIE!) 『I am a huge fan of the grossly overpriced Yogitoes line. I've purchased every color hBand (please someone tell me why you would buy them in a 4 pack for $23.95 when you can purchase them individually - not always in stock on Amazon, but definitely elsewhere -for between $2.50 and - at the very most - $3.95!?!). The only reason I'm not giving the yStrap just one star is because it's from yogitoes. Otherwise, if you want to purchase this for yoga practice (or anything else) I TRULY hope that you are purchasing a normal strap also. Why? BECAUSE IT'S USELESS!
A) It doesn't unbuckle (why have a "buckle" then? much less two!), therefore you cannot use it for the wrapping or sitting poses where you wrap it around you and buckle or tie.
B) It doesn't stretch 30 inches (not even close), so you can't use it for leg stretches/poses, or even most arm stretches.
The only function that the yStrap may have is to bridge the gap when you can't clasp hands, but I actually think that a hand towel works better in that instance as well!
Don't get me wrong though. I'm not angry about it's uselessness and I'm definitely keeping it. After all, it's yogitoes. Their accessories are to yoga what juicy couture is to tracksuits. Some items are useful/well made but for the most part it's all just marketing and materialism. Just save your $ and buy the ecodot or the mSeat. :)
UPDATE-the "buckle" makes this product very easy to break as well...so if you want to try and stretch it to even half of the promised "30 inches" (I swear it goes 15 at the most! That's a little bigger than a ruler people, it may just cover a pigeon's wingspan) plan on hearing the plastic snap, or being constant fear that it will snap (I suggest trying it out alone before putting other yogis at risk of sharp orange plastic flying objects).
』 『The Yoogitoes® yStrap™ is a supportive tool that allows you to engage fully in a pose, providing flexible resistance. This lightweight band can help you maximize your stretch or hold your limbs together. Invaluable for both beginning students and advanced yoga practitioners alike, the yStrap™ is available in orange only, to remind you to think "orange" with Yogitoes®.』 『Need to hold a tough pose for more than a few seconds? Turn to the Yogitoes yStrap, a supportive strap that lets you add flexible resistance to a host of yoga postures. Particularly helpful for hamstring-stretching leg poses, the yStrap is made of a nylon/spandex blend that stretches from 9 inches all the way up to 30 inches. The strap also helps out for shoulder stands, bridge pose, downward dog, handstands, and more.

IPhone 3G used's review (Buff headwear - chocolate) 『The product itself is great and I love the versatility of the buff. The color shown and what I believed I was purchasing was solid chocolate brown however what I actually received is brown with a white paisley print.』 『Buff Original Buff Banda Cru100% poly microfiberOne-piece tubular constructionSeam free1.22 ouncesOne Size fits mostFits head size 53-62cm (21-24")Machine washableColor fastWear a neckerchief, headband, wristband, mask, hairband, balaclava, scarf, hair scrunchy, saharine, pirate cap, beanie, bandana or any other way you can manipulate itThe image shown is a graphic representation of the actual item and tries to give you an idea of the pattern of the Buff.』 『The inspiration of an off-road motorcyclist who wanted the perfect piece of headgear for all riding conditions, Buff's technical fiber headscarf is versatile, comfortable, and lightweight. The Buff headscarf is made from 100-percent polyester microfiber, with a tubular design that can be worn as a headband, neck gaiter, balaclava, cap, face mask, wristband, and scrunchy, among dozens of possible uses. Even better, the polyester fabric wicks away moisture to keep you cool when it's hot, but also insulates against cold when the weather turns. It's so versatile that it's considered an essential piece of headwear by severalSurvivorcontestants, who have used it to protect them from the elements in tropical locales.
The Buff was designed by Spanish motorcyclist Juan Rojas, who developed a special tubular loom that achieves a unique seamless construction. This not only creates a particularly comfortable garment, but also an extremely durable one. The company also uses a sublimation process to transfer designs onto the headgear, ensuring that the material retains its soft feel without the fabric fading when exposed to the elements. Finally, the Buff is machine-washable for easy cleaning, and is designed to maintain its elasticity through the years. Wind-resistant and tough, the original Buff headgear measures 20.7 by 9.6 inches and weighs 1.2 ounces.
