The base is excellent, the cutting mat is not very good

I don't know what "thickness" and "clarity" have to do with this product (see review options). Now the turntable is great. But I don't care about the surface of the cutting mat. It's not as soft as my other self-healing mats and not as easy to cut. Where I can cut multiple thicknesses on other mats, I get the best results with one on this one. And I don't think an ironing pad makes sense. I'm seriously considering bringing this back because a friend said she had a better rotation option.

Pros
  • Value for money
Cons
  • Reliability

rotating cutting mat with twists and bearings

enough space for easy cutting and twisting. everything stays together and I can put some pressure on my ruler while cutting and feel very stable. I am very happy with this rotating cutting mat. The bottom is like a lazy Susan, with bearings. Mat overhangs no more than 1/2 inch. and about 1/2 inch from the table. I haven't used the ironing pad but it's good quality. Both the mat and the cushion have a non-slip surface. It is 16 1/2 inches in diameter. and would be great to take to class. I…

Returning to sew

Sorry I'm sending it back. I bought it because I saw it on video and it's round I thought it was cool what I need. But that wasn't my point. Unfortunately, it was missing a few elements I needed, such as a ruler around the outside edges. I need a large area to measure and cut. Not just a 10x10 square. It also states that it is designed for use with the ergo 2000 rotary knife and blades. Also, I didn't need an ironing pad. I have a much thicker mat that I use. I bought an 18x18 square spinning…

Pros
  • Ideal for a small home
Cons
  • Lots of stuff

Exactly what I needed!

As a quilter, I worked on kaleidoscopic patterns with intricate fabrics and needed a sturdy circular cutting board. Then I stumbled across Martelli while looking at offers on Revain. A spec check showed it had more ball bearings for easier use than even the Brooklyn revolver, which is no longer available, so I bought it. I am so happy with this product. It's sturdy and turns so easily (all those ball bearings!) compared to the old square one I used before. It even has a soft ironing surface…

Pros
  • Arts, Crafts & Sewing
Cons
  • No Productivity

I really like how it can be used. It's great when there is something that can be cut and ironed on the same product. Take less with you when you travel. The product demo I watched on YouTube was very helpful. He showed how many things can be ironed at the same time. I'm new to quilting and was really surprised to find all the goodies like the roundabout set that make it easy. I think Martelli has a good product and is worth the money. As usual I like to find a discounted price and Revain is…

Pros
  • Sewing
Cons
  • There are other interesting options.

Beautiful rotating cutting board

If you are expecting a cutting board from Olfa you will be disappointed but fear not, although it is different it is still very beautiful. The fabric "slides" over it differently and isn't as rubbery when cut. The turntable itself is a bit surprising when you first use it because of the background noise, not bad, but you can certainly hear "lazy susan" ball bearings underneath. I suspect this is partly because, unlike other smaller turntables, this is made with some thickness, allowing us to…

Pros
  • Cutting mats
Cons
  • Expensive
