Close to branded but not quite

I bought these cutting mats to save some money over the branded version. They're about 1/8" to 1/4" smaller than Cricut brand mats, which means if your footage doesn't cut the first time, it's nearly impossible to send it back in a second to have it lined up. the same place. Since the size is a bit small, the lines are also offset, so the measurements from the workbench to the mats are also slightly offset. In general, these mats work well. I've been able to use them on several HRV and vinyl…

Cons
  • High price

Good for lighter/thinner materials

As mentioned, this is NOT as sticky as expected. However, it has worked for me so far. Actually it depends on the material/medium you are using. For carbon paper or thin materials, maybe even foil, it works well because it won't tear when removed from the mat. I've found that new sticky mats cause them to tear. So it's good to have both sticky and non-sticky mats depending on your needs. I've only tried standard mats, so I can't comment on durable or lightweight mats yet.

Pros
  • Great for me
Cons
  • No instructions

Trouble registering with Silhouette

I bought a set to see what the different types of glue look like. Blue mat, easy adhesion, works great. However, the glue has almost disappeared after about 10 applications. The default transparent matte (which is meant to replace the normal silhouette matte) completely ruins the registration and ruins my footage every time. This makes the transparent mat completely useless. I have yet to use the purple matte which has a very sticky surface and won't do me much good since I mainly do stickers…

Pros
  • Great price
Cons
  • Big and bulky

Terrible experience

Bought these mats at the end of May. I've been using NIcapa mats for about two years and haven't had any problems. I decided to try three different sticky mats as I have a number of projects where I need to change materials and I thought these mats would work. I received the mats and used them for about 2 weeks, they were fine but didn't hold up very well. I used them infrequently over the next two weeks and started using them a lot this week. The rugs have been less than a month and I have…

Pros
  • Quality workmanship
Cons
  • Requires an outlet
