Cricut 12" x 12" Cutting Pats, 2 Piece

Great price on these mats and wonderful service from WalMart using Site-to-Store shipping. I am just replacing my Cricut Expression mat after two years with the mat that came with the machine, which I recycled a few times by reapplying adhesive to it. But finally the edges of the mat became distorted from the rollers on the machine, so I had to replace it. The new mats are so sticky that my paper is damaged when I try to remove it. There are suggestions online to reduce the stickiness, which I will have to try. I don't remember having this problem with the original mat, and from what I'm reading online, the stickiness on replacement mats is either too sticky or not sticky enough. ProvoCraft should be able to be more consistent with the quality of the Cricut supplies :/ Two stars for not being able to use a supply required by the machine without some modification or remedy.

Cricut supplies are hard to find, but Walmart always has them, in stock and cheaper than anyone else. Quality merchandise at discount prices. Works just as good as the ones from the manufacture.

The 12X12 cricut cutting pads are a necessary item for the cricut expression. I have been using it for about a week and it is still sticky enough to hold the paper which is impressive. I have cut at least 100 items so far. I don't know how long it is supposed to last, but so far so good.

I knew that the mat was going to have considerable hold being brand new but to those that may underestimate it you will want to use cardstock for several uses prior to switching to more delicate forms like vellum. Also there was a comment that a buyer only got one mat but I did get 2 in my package. If you buy the Cricut Expression you will only get one mat with that though.

The cutting mats were exactly as I wanted and the same as buying them in the store but having them shipped site to store they packaged them in too small of a box and they were bent. Not only that, but I ordered two sets and they were sent in two separate boxes, both of which were too small so both sets got bent.
