Pros & Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

The manduka block is produced 100% free of any chemicals and is 100% renewable cork. Great quality block, but a little pricey. Updates to come, but so far it's a winner.

They're sturdy, have a nice weight to them (don't let these drop on your foot lol), though the heaviness makes it not so comfy to use as a headrest.

These are the perfect slim yoga blocks to have! These cork blocks offer great stability for standing poses. Creates stability in the pose yet comfortable on the hands and wrists.

The corner cuts are a tad rougher than the gaiam.



Cons

Natural whole cork has certain cushioning which is absolutely absent in this merchandise. Definitely a knockoff. Crumbling and dusty on arrival.

Quality


Arrived on time and are quality blocks


Excellent quality but it is on the heavy side


Foam blocks arent stable enough these are supportive

Price


They are sturdy and worth the price


Manduka is everything and i constantly use this block in my daily practice

Packaging/appearance


I was very impressed by how solid and heavy it is when i took it out of the box


From that day on i tried to get to class early enough to grab one of the manduka blocks


The smell is not great when you first take it out of the package

Competitiveness


Then i attended a yoga class at a new location and they had several manduka cork blocks mixed in amongst the usual foam blocks


I hated it so much i went onto amazon and bought my own manduka block as soon as i returned home


I would imagine these would last a looong time but only time will tell

    I was also thinking of buying a handstand cane

    By the way it should be easy to clean with a disinfecting wipe or spray with equal parts water and white vinegar with teaspoon of dish soap


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I have only used foam blocks and my gaiam blocks were getting squishy over time and unstable


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I think they have to be heavy to be this stable


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Just enough for some practices


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Be warned though they are heavy


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I actually really love that because you can stand on them with confidece but if youre looking for something to schlep around town these wont be a good fit
