    I was thinking of getting a rotating mat, but then I ended up putting a thin cotton dish towel under my smallest mat and just rotating that on my countertop. Worked perfectly and cost nothing.

    Thanks for the link to Fiskars, I'll contact them as soon as I have photos to back up my chipped mat.

    I had the yellow one and loved it until it got warped so I got a new one for Christmas. Its green and I hate it! The fabric sticks to the mat after you make a cut so it ends up with a bunch of strings on the edges!

    Walmart here has the big square rotating Fiskars yellow mats on clearance right now. I guess they are getting the gray ones.

    What is this about Fiskars buying Gingher????? Where did you read that? This concerns me greatly.

    If they get enough of this kind of feedback often they will go back to the original. I would try to get my money back since they didn't ship what you ordered. If a person orders what is shown they should get the same product.
