Limited Warranty
Manduka guarantees the Manduka PRO®, PROlite® and PRO Travel® yoga mats to last the lifetime of the mat, if used and cared for properly. The PRO Squared, PRO L&W, PROlite L&W, and Almost Perfect PRO mats are not covered by the Lifetime Guarantee. The lifetime of the mat is approximately 10 years of regular use when loved and cared for. Should a PRO mat wear out past its useful life from regular use under normal conditions, we will replace the product. Maximum one replacement per purchase.

Manduka reserves the right to reject Lifetime Guarantee claims for Products purchased from unauthorized sellers, including unauthorized Internet sites.
Cosmetic wear to the mat surface that does not affect the mat’s performance, damage resulting from improper handling, cleaning, storage or care, damage from outside elements, damage from excessive amounts of water, post-purchase modifications, alterations, negligence, and use for a purpose other than for which it was designed are not covered by the Manduka PRO Lifetime Guarantee.
