Comparison
The ProsourceFit Extra Thick Yoga and Pilates Mat and Sunny Health & Fitness Non-Slip Yoga Mat share the same 71 x 24-inch footprint but serve different priorities. ProsourceFit emphasizes deep cushioning for floor exercise, while Sunny's thinner profile is more practical for balance-oriented yoga and carrying between locations. For hard floors, knees, and mat Pilates, ProsourceFit has the clearer advantage. For a lighter everyday yoga mat with closer contact to the ground, Sunny is the more targeted option.

For gentle post-training stretching, ProsourceFit is the more supportive option because its extra foam is designed to reduce hard-floor pressure. Reviews commonly mention comfort during floor exercises and stretches. Sunny still provides a usable surface for cool-down mobility and meditation, but its 6 mm thickness is less suitable when users need substantial padding. This comparison concerns workout comfort and routine fit, not treatment of pain or injury.
Both mats support yoga, Pilates, stretching, core training, and general home floor workouts. ProsourceFit is more useful when the session includes prolonged kneeling, supine exercises, hip mobility work, or other positions where direct pressure against a hard floor is uncomfortable. Sunny is better aligned with a conventional yoga practice that includes frequent standing transitions, where its thin profile can feel more controlled. Neither mat changes the exercise itself; the choice is about the amount of padding and floor feedback preferred during the routine.
For bodyweight strength work such as planks, glute bridges, dead bugs, crunches, and mobility-based warm-ups, ProsourceFit provides more protection at contact points. That is helpful when training on hard flooring, but its thicker foam may feel less planted during standing movements. Sunny offers less cushioning but can be the steadier surface for bodyweight squats, lunges, and balance-focused drills. Neither is a substitute for equipment designed to protect floors from dropped weights or heavy resistance training.
Mobility and flexibility work are central use cases for both mats. ProsourceFit is particularly well suited to longer floor stretches and Pilates positions because the added foam reduces pressure from the floor; several supplied reviews specifically praise this use. Sunny provides a firmer, lower platform that may suit flowing yoga and transitions where users want more positional feedback. Choose ProsourceFit for comfort-led stretching sessions and Sunny for a more traditional, portable yoga-mat feel.
Neither product is a recovery treatment, but both can provide a cleaner, more comfortable surface for gentle post-workout stretching and mobility routines. ProsourceFit is the stronger choice for this role because its extra-thick foam is repeatedly praised for reducing uncomfortable floor pressure during stretches. Sunny can work well for lighter cool-downs and travel use, though its thinner design offers less protection for users who spend extended time kneeling or lying on hard floors.
ProsourceFit performs best at its core purpose: creating a highly cushioned barrier between the user and a hard floor. Its 1-inch foam option, 71-inch length, and strong comfort-oriented review pattern support that role well. The main performance compromise is that deep foam can feel springy in standing balance poses. Sunny performs more like a conventional yoga mat, with moderate 6 mm cushioning and a low profile that supports floor connection. Its grip-oriented surface design is useful in principle, but user feedback on traction and material durability is less consistent.
For consistent home training, ProsourceFit supports a broad range of floor-based sessions by making kneeling, core exercises, stretching, and Pilates more tolerable on firm surfaces. This may reduce a practical barrier to using the mat regularly, though it is not the best option for users who prioritize standing balance practice. Sunny supports a more mobile routine: it rolls easily, is compact relative to its full-length surface, and includes SunnyFit app access. It is a sensible fit for basic yoga practice, but reported durability concerns may affect long-term routine reliability.
Neither mat is intended for loaded lifting, but both can support bodyweight strength and floor-based accessory work. ProsourceFit has the advantage for exercises involving knees, elbows, hips, or the back because its thicker foam offers substantially more contact-point padding. Sunny has the advantage for standing bodyweight movements where a firmer platform may feel more stable. Users should avoid treating either mat as a protective surface for dropped dumbbells, kettlebells, or weight plates.
Both products are well matched to mobility work, but they create a different practice feel. ProsourceFit's deeper foam is especially practical for long-held stretches, floor mobility, and mat Pilates on hardwood or tile. Its softer base can be less reassuring for standing balance postures. Sunny's thinner construction provides less pressure relief, but it can offer more direct feedback from the floor during yoga flows and transitions. The mobility winner therefore depends on whether comfort or firmer control is the priority.
For gentle post-training stretching, ProsourceFit is the more supportive option because its extra foam is designed to reduce hard-floor pressure. Reviews commonly mention comfort during floor exercises and stretches. Sunny still provides a usable surface for cool-down mobility and meditation, but its 6 mm thickness is less suitable when users need substantial padding. This comparison concerns workout comfort and routine fit, not treatment of pain or injury.
For floor exercises, ProsourceFit's thick foam can reduce direct contact pressure from a hard surface, but users should recognize that a very soft mat may be less stable for balance poses. Some reviews also mention sweat-related slipperiness. Sunny's lower profile can provide more stable footing for standing yoga, although its grip feedback remains mixed and some durability reports raise concerns about holes or tears. Both mats should be used on a clean, dry, level floor and inspected for damage or slipping before a session.
ProsourceFit is decisively more comfort-focused. The supplied 1-inch model is designed for substantial floor protection, and buyers repeatedly describe it as supportive for knees, elbows, back, and barefoot exercise on hard floors. Sunny's 6 mm cushioning can be comfortable for everyday yoga and home exercise, but feedback is mixed on whether it is thick enough. Sunny is preferable only for users who find a firmer, closer-to-floor feel more comfortable for balance work.
Both mats are simple to unroll, wipe down, and use without assembly. Sunny is easier to manage for frequent trips because its thinner profile rolls compactly and is described as lightweight and portable. ProsourceFit includes a carry sling and rolls up after use, but the 1-inch version is inherently bulkier. Care is similarly straightforward: wipe either mat clean, allow it to dry, and avoid machine washing. Sunny additionally specifies drying flat.
Sunny Health & Fitness has the better stability profile for standing yoga because its 6 mm construction keeps the user closer to the floor. Its patterned base is also designed to hold the mat in place. ProsourceFit's non-slip ribbed design can help it stay positioned, but the thick 1-inch foam may compress and feel wobbly underfoot during balance exercises. For floor work, this difference matters less; for standing poses, Sunny is the more appropriate format.
Both mats use textured grip-focused surfaces, but neither has uniformly positive traction feedback. ProsourceFit lists a ribbed NBR surface and non-slip base, yet some users report that sweat can make it slippery. Sunny lists a textured top and patterned underside, and some buyers praise its sticky, secure feel, while others report slipperiness. Sunny's lower profile may feel more controlled in standing poses, but grip results can vary with moisture and the practice surface.
ProsourceFit offers meaningful choice through its 1/2-inch and 1-inch thickness options, allowing shoppers to select a firmer or more cushioned feel. Sunny's supplied listing is a fixed 6 mm mat, so its feel is not adjustable. Neither product uses adjustable settings once purchased. For people who know they need maximum floor padding, ProsourceFit's thickness choice is the more useful form of customization.
Sunny Health & Fitness is more space-efficient when stored because its 6 mm profile creates a smaller rolled package. This makes it more convenient for apartments, studio trips, and keeping a mat in a bag or vehicle. ProsourceFit has the same flat dimensions but occupies more space once rolled, especially in the 1-inch version. That is the expected trade-off for its considerably greater cushioning. Both mats are practical for home exercise because they roll up after use.
Neither mat has moving mechanical parts, so both are quiet options for yoga, stretching, Pilates, and bodyweight floor sessions. The thicker ProsourceFit foam may also soften contact noise during floor movements, although no specific noise-reduction claim is provided. Noise is unlikely to be a deciding factor between these two mats.
ProsourceFit's build is centered on dense NBR foam, a ribbed surface, and a rolled format intended to provide extra cushioning. Reviews generally find the mat supportive and substantial, although the carrying strap is not as well regarded as the mat. Sunny uses PVC with scrim reinforcement and markets peel resistance, with textured top and bottom surfaces. Its construction is designed for a thinner yoga-mat experience, but buyer feedback is more divided, including reports of holes and tearing. On available evidence, ProsourceFit has the more reassuring build quality for its intended floor-comfort role.
Durability is a relative strength for ProsourceFit, though it is not without caveats. Some buyers report that it lasts well, while others warn that the foam can be damaged if handled roughly. Sunny's PVC-and-scrim material is listed as peel-resistant, but the supplied review overview includes concerns that the mat may tear after limited use, and one review mentions arriving with holes. These reports do not prove every Sunny mat will fail, but they make ProsourceFit the safer choice where durability is a priority.
Maintenance is straightforward for both mats. ProsourceFit should be wiped with a wet cloth or sponge and allowed plenty of time to air dry; it is not machine washable. Sunny is also hand-clean only and should be cleaned with a damp cloth, then dried flat, with prolonged sun exposure avoided. ProsourceFit's moisture-resistant NBR is convenient for basic wipe-downs, while Sunny provides more specific storage and drying guidance. Neither requires complex maintenance.
Sunny Health & Fitness is the more portable mat because its 6 mm design rolls into a more compact form while remaining full length. At 4.4 pounds, it is also marginally lighter than the 4.5-pound ProsourceFit. ProsourceFit includes a sling, which helps with carrying, but the deep foam makes the roll more cumbersome. Sunny is the better fit for studio visits, travel, and users who regularly transport their mat.
Material information is reasonably clear for both products. ProsourceFit identifies nitrile butadiene rubber, while Sunny Health & Fitness identifies polyvinyl chloride and scrim reinforcement. ProsourceFit also provides specific cleaning directions and notes moisture resistance. Sunny provides care guidance, including hand cleaning, drying flat, and avoiding prolonged sun exposure. Neither listing provides a comprehensive breakdown of every component, but both identify the primary mat material well enough for shoppers comparing feel, care requirements, and material preference.
At the listed prices, ProsourceFit costs only slightly more while providing substantially greater cushioning, a carrying sling, a limited lifetime warranty, and more consistently positive customer feedback. It offers the stronger value for people who will benefit from deep padding during Pilates, stretching, or hard-floor exercise. Sunny can still represent good value for shoppers who specifically want a compact, conventional yoga mat and access to SunnyFit classes. Its lower price should be weighed against the more mixed reports on grip, thickness, and durability.
Both listings provide identifiable brands, product specifications, materials, care instructions, and warranty information. Sunny Health & Fitness states that it has more than 20 years of experience and offers U.S. support, but this is a brand listing claim rather than independently verified evidence in the supplied data. ProsourceFit has stronger buyer sentiment in this comparison and provides a limited lifetime warranty. Sunny offers more stated app and support ecosystem detail, while ProsourceFit has the more confidence-inspiring product feedback pattern.
ProsourceFit has the stronger customer-satisfaction picture, with a higher listed star rating across thousands of reviews and repeated praise for its cushioning, comfort, and usefulness on hard flooring. Recurring concerns include odor, a basic strap, and less stability for standing poses. Sunny also has thousands of reviews and receives positive comments on size, portability, value, and grip from some buyers. However, its feedback is more mixed, particularly around thickness, slipperiness, holes, tearing, and overall material quality.
ProsourceFit lists a limited lifetime warranty, giving it the stronger stated coverage. Sunny Health & Fitness lists a one-year structural-frame warranty and 180 days for other parts and components. The supplied information does not explain claim procedures, exclusions, replacement experiences, or support response times for either brand. Shoppers who consider coverage important should review the current terms before purchasing.
ProsourceFit's core claims are well matched to its disclosed specifications and buyer feedback: it is a thick NBR mat, measures 71 x 24 inches, includes a sling, and is commonly praised for cushioning. Claims around comfort are supported by user reports but should be understood as individual experience. Sunny's material, dimensions, care instructions, and low-profile design are also clearly stated. Its anti-slip and durability claims are less consistently supported by reviews, which include mixed traction feedback and reports of tearing or holes.
ProsourceFit is the better overall mat for shoppers seeking comfort, hard-floor protection, and versatility across Pilates, stretching, core work, and gentle floor-based training. Its main strengths are the much thicker foam, strong comfort feedback, and limited lifetime warranty. Its main limitation is reduced steadiness during standing balance work, particularly in the 1-inch format.
Sunny Health & Fitness is a reasonable alternative for people who want a thinner, more portable mat with a closer-to-floor feel and included app access. Its principal advantages are compact storage and balance-oriented design, while its main drawback is less reliable feedback on durability and grip. Pick ProsourceFit for padding; pick Sunny for portability and firmer floor contact.
Overall winner
Depends on your needs
The ProsourceFit is the stronger option for users who place cushioning first, particularly for kneeling, stretching, Pilates, and other floor-based sessions. The Sunny Health & Fitness mat is the more suitable choice when a thinner surface, easier transport, and closer floor contact for balance work matter more. The better mat depends on the routine.
The ProsourceFit is the clearer choice for users seeking more padding. Its listed 1-inch option is substantially thicker than the Sunny mat's 6 mm profile, and buyer feedback repeatedly highlights comfort on hard floors. The extra foam can be less stable for standing positions, so it is best matched to ground-based exercise.
Its lower-profile construction keeps the user closer to the floor, which can be preferable for standing yoga poses and transitions. The ProsourceFit's thicker foam is more cushioned but some reviewers find it springy or wobbly for balance work. Individual grip experience with the Sunny mat is mixed, so surface conditions still matter.
The Sunny Health & Fitness mat is the more portable choice. It is slightly lighter, only 6 mm thick, and rolls into a smaller package than the thicker ProsourceFit model. ProsourceFit includes a carrying sling, but its thicker foam creates a bulkier roll, especially in the 1-inch version.
Yes. ProsourceFit lists a ribbed NBR surface and non-slip base, while Sunny lists a textured top and round-patterned underside. However, feedback is not completely uniform: some ProsourceFit users mention sweat-related slipperiness, and Sunny buyers also give mixed reports on grip. Neither claim removes the need to use the mat on a clean, dry floor.
Based on the available product information and buyer feedback, ProsourceFit has the stronger durability case overall. Some users report long-term use, although rough handling may damage the foam. Sunny lists reinforced, peel-resistant PVC-and-scrim material, but reviews include reports of holes and tearing, making its real-world durability less consistent.
ProsourceFit offers stronger value for shoppers who will use its added cushioning regularly, as the price difference is small and it includes a sling plus a limited lifetime warranty. Sunny can be good value for users who specifically want a compact, moderate-cushion mat and app access. Its durability feedback is the main consideration before choosing it.
No. ProsourceFit advises wiping the NBR mat with a wet cloth or sponge and allowing it to dry fully. Sunny Health & Fitness advises hand cleaning with a damp cloth, with cold water or mild detergent mentioned in the listing, then drying the mat flat. Both listings advise against machine washing.
