Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)When you buy the expression machine - it doesn't come with this sized mat! You're reading this right, it DOES NOT INCLUDE a 12x24 MAT! Which is annoying because you need this mat to do projects larger than 12". This isn't an every day mat, this is really best used for projects over 12" (especially for the price point)
Couple of things to keep in mind -
Make sure you adjust the blade depth that's appropriate for the material you're cutting - example, don't use a 6 for vellum. This will cut into your mat, and will ruin your mat. It seems like that is the quickest cause of mat destruction.
Don't leave your material on the mat for ages - it may actually keep your material STUCK on the mat (oops)
Keep the plastic protector on the mat when you're not using it
You can flip the mat around to use it - (the arrow doesn't have to point at the machine, when your mat is not sticky, flip the arrow to face you.
Another tip i've heard - wipe the mat with some water to make it tacky again
LASTLY!!!! These mats are kinda pricy, because you NEED it to use the machine - so keep checking your local ads for their 40% (or 50% if you're lucky) coupons to get these mats.
