Update on purchase
Well, I picked up my martelli turntable & mat from WM last nite, tried it today and it is totally much better than the square ones I have....no slippage, snug hug..and the price was certainly better! I must remember to check out WM more often.......

Martinelli cutting mat
Just watched the new tute, "kindred pinwheels" and Jenny was using a rotating mat by Martinelli. It looked sturdy. I have all the sizes from whomever makes those square rotating ones, and really am not always happy with their performance....So, I thought I'd look into this. Well, did a search, and Walmart carried, but has to be ordered and delivered to store/home for $27.11. At Martinelli website price is $49.99 +s&h.....I think I know where I'm going to order one from! BTW! Anyone here have, do you like?

My quilt partner has the Martelli rotating mat and has the same problem with the mat being unsteady whenever she goes to cut. I've used her mat and I, personally, do not like how it moves while cutting. I think it just takes some getting used to and very slow cutting.
I have the green Olfa square rotating mat and have never had an issue with it being unstable. That is the mat I take with me whenever we have sew days at our quilt club. I've had this rotating mat for 3 years now.
