Usability and Functionality

  • "This is super hard to keep clean because everything clings to it from static."
  • "It does smell somewhat out of the package."
  • "The only hassle you'll have from this is cleaning off small bits and messes like wood scraping and messy craft bits."
  • "Unfortunately the mat came folded and even after several weeks of laying flat, the mat did not smooth out."
  • "Using a microfiber cloth to clean this was a nightmare, it was like the microfiber was sticking to the silicone."
  • "It sticks to itself pretty badly."

  • "You may need to use both mats side by side depending on the craft to cover a larger surface."
  • "I just rinse it in my sink with some dish soap and let it dry and then I roll it up and put it away takes up very little space."
