REALIKE 8.5”x12” Cutting Mat Compatible with Cricut Joy Xtra, Blue Light Grip Cutting mats for Joy Xtra Accessories

I've been through a few brands of mats for my cricut, but these are the ones that keep their stickiness the best over time. Really love them.

I like how sturdy they are and they fit in my machine just fine but what I don’t like is the strength of the adhesive. I mostly use sticker paper in my machine and the paper backing of my sticker sheet refuses to come off the mat which causes the whole sheet to rip instead of cleaning peeling. I think they’ll be better once I remove some of the stickiness from the mat. Overall I think it’s a decent deal but be warned about the adhesive.

Maybe it's been a while since I had a new mat, but IMO these are not "light grip". The first thing I used the mat for was regular paper doing an alignment check and the paper stuck to the mat to the point where I had to scrub it off and the mat is now not at all sticky. My fault for not testing it. The second mat was used for sticker paper and the sticker paper backing got stuck to the mat and ripped up and I had to use a weeding tool to remove the bits. It is now hit and miss. I tried the third mat with a piece of vinyl and it was very hard to remove the vinyl backer from the mat. I decided to put a clean dish towel on it and peel it off, to add some fuzz to it, and now I can use that mat for my sticker paper projects. I'm glad it came in a 3-pack. I'm going to try another brand.

Ordered these many times before and they were great BUT the last 2 packs are extra Strong grip NOT light grip! So ANNOYING!

ggood for the money

Don't use paper on these it gets stuck even though it says light for paper I can only put my vinyl down on this even after a lot of wear and tear still cannot peel paper off of it
