WORKLION 8-Pack 12x12 Adhesive Cutting Mats for Cricut Explore Air 2, Maker & Maker 3 - Includes 5 StandardGrip, 1 LightGrip, 1 StrongGrip & 1 FabricGrip Mats - Perfect for Scrapbooking, Vinyl Cutting & DIY Craft Projects

I am tired of over paying for the Scan-n-Cut mats. The price is ridiculous! I decided to purchase these are try them out over my old mats. It worked!Simply trim these mats down to the 12x12" grid. Use some 8 1/2x11" double sided sticky sheets (like double sided tape but larger). I used one full sheet and cut another up to fill in the rest of the 12x12" mat. I lined it up on top of my old mats grid and burnished really well.I have used these for weeks now without any issues. You will have to do test cuts to check for cutting depths as all your old settings will not be the same. So far my double sided sticky sheets have held on well. When I need a new mat I will simply remove the old one, scrape off the sticky sheet with Goo Gone and reapply a new sheet over my old one. Ta-da!Why pay all that $$$ ???I have used these mats so many times and they still are holding up. They are easy to clean with Windex, scrape the excess gunk off, let them dry and they’re back good as new. Great bundle for the price.Will purchase again, much better & less money than the machine brand ones!These are much more affordable than the name brand & work well. They may not get quite as many uses out of each mat but overall you're getting many more uses based on price paid. I also like the more flexible, almost rubber-like material from which they're made.Flash sale deal. Great for the moneyLiked the price and works very well as describedI have an Etsy shop where I'm constantly using the standard grip mats. I hated having to fork out money for branded ones, so I got this pack months ago. They do lose stick after a while, but I've been able to extend their life and rotate them between materials. I won't go back to Cricut brand! I will say that they start pretty strong, so be careful with paper.Good price and works great.I've tried Cricut, eMigoo and Nicapa brands but these are the best ones I've tried. I had low expectations because I had seen reviews which said that they snapped easily, but these mats are more flexible than any of the others I've had. My delivery driver had managed to fold and post them through the letter box (eye roll) but there was no damage. The glue has the perfect, medium hold for the 300gsm cardstock I use in my business. There was no residue left on the card, even after the first use. I'm very happy with my purchase and will be definitely buying these again. Fingers crossed they are consistently this good!Oh, and you get 5 in a pack - that's a win!After using these my cricut maker was intermittently powering off. I raised the issue with cricut, who asked me to take a video of it happening. I decided to use a cricut branded mat for the videos because using anything else voids your warranty anyway and I obviously want to avoid that. As soon as I started using the branded cricut standard grip mat, the machine worked fine.Then today I went back to use the machine with one of these mats and it powered off again. The problem is clearly with these mats. I would avoid at all costs because they have the potential to break your machine.Thought initially they were good value for money, but after using for tge first ever time I found my vinyl keep peeling back on the edges and not holding to the board at all. When I felt how tacky the board was supposed to be it was nowhere near as tacky as my Cricut brand board. Regretting buying this. In future I'll pay the extra money because these are of no use and will jam my machines blade if the vinyl peels back during the cut.....then it will work out more costly to renew the tool/blade. Would advise people to pay the extra and buy a better board.Amazing quality for the price, especially when compared to the official Cricut mats. The only thing that stopped me from giving these 5 stars was the adhesion, It's good, but just a bit tooo good. The first few cuts I really struggled to remove any vinyl sheets stuck to the mat. I made the mistake of using a fresh mat to calibrate my Cricut machine and it took me a long time to fully remove the paper from the mat. Other than that I have no complaints and would definitely consider buying these again.These are a great price for 3 mats. They are string grip so perfect for thicker card above 230gsm. It keeps it nice and secure while the cricut does its thing ? edited as one of the mats split in 2 after a few uses. So handle carefully
