Worked perfectly and very happy

The foam is 2 inches thick, and neither as hard as cement, nor so soft you sink through it to the ground. I have a bad back, and can't do stretches or abdominal exercises on the ground, or even on a traditional yoga mat without a lot of pain. When my running clinic coach announced that we will be doing runners yoga and abdominal exercises on the ground (the first day we actually did them on the track surface in the rain--ouch!)--I knew I needed something I could use outdoors that would let me participate without hurting for the next week. This mat worked perfectly. It folds up somewhat, and fits in my trunk easily. A little rain won't hurt it, dirt can be wiped off, I can use it on paved or grassy surfaces, and it provides enough support to my back that I don't feel the ground through the foam, yet it still cushions. I have been very happy with it over the past couple of months of training.
Great mat! I purchased for sleeping when we go camping. It is a little bulky but perfect for the price. It is has a good thickness for sleeping on fairly flat ground.
I'm a person who is easily uncomfortable and can't sleep on any floors. Used this as a mattress for a camping trip in a tent that was on rocks (not on dirt, I was laying on multiple small rocks) and it was thick enough to sleep comfortably on my side and it did not slide around at all. If you sleep on your back or stomach, it's going to be even better for you then. Sleeping on my side I dug deep into it (I weigh 120lbs) and it was still enough padding to not feel the ground underneath me. This is good item if you're stationary camping or if you're actually doing exercise with this, it's more than enough to be comfortable.
