I really like the Fiskars mats. I like the thin lines and find it much easier to line up marks on the rulers to the thin lines and 1/4 " dotted lines. The Olfa mats have two different sizes of lines and I find that to be a problem. Also, it may be just me, but I think the Fiskars 'heals' better than Olfas.

Had the yellow Fiskers and HATED it!!! bought a Olfa and LOVE it. could not see the lines on the Fisker and it was very slippery! The Olfa very, very nice. would never buy any other brand no matter the cost. there really is a difference.
figure out a way, I will send u the Fishars mat......

I have Olfa mats,24x36,24x24,18x24,18x24,12x12,6x6,and 12x18. But I only bought the 12x18.It was my first one.The rest were gifts from my daughters. For birthdays,Christmas they used to ask what I would like to have.I always said quilt supplies. After 2 or 3 years they quit asking and I have a great assortment of mats and rulers and templates.
