🟢 Fiskars 18x24 Inch Eco Cutting Mat Board: Durable & Eco-Friendly (01-005900) Review

I just received the mat and the first thing I noticed was that it was green. I didn't want green. The picture is not green. It is white. change the picture It is not self-healing and is thinner than my other mat. But it's cheap enough and will hopefully last a while.

I was able to move the fabric to other areas of the rug and after a few cuts I noticed the same problem. I gave no star because I love the design of the rug and the markings on it. Fiskars…

With one caveat. I wish there were little latches on the back to hold it on the table. My remedy, on the other hand, is glue dots on each corner. Keeps it in place but small dots of adhesive can be removed if needed. It is double sided and perfect for my use. It sits on my home office counter and I use it as a measuring aid when photographing odd-shaped items for my online store. The color is good but I wish it was more matte because there is a bit of shine. I am in the process of ordering a…
