Review on Pam Damour Mega Heat-Transfer Pressing Mat by Carol Miller

I bought a size up, I was afraid of regret if I didn't buy it and I'm glad I did. I use it almost exclusively for cutting. I've been considering buying one of the "press mats" to hold small parts securely while pressing and this mat does that and more. I was also worried (even after reading the reviews) that the heat from the iron would penetrate through the mat, but it didn't. I pressed the patch and held the iron on the product with my hand under the mat and I can say with confidence that you can iron on any surface without fear of that heat or moisture will affect the surface beneath the mat. I used to starch most of my pieces and I will follow the advice from the reviews to use a pillowcase to cover the rug when using starch.
