i've been using mine every day since Christmas 2009---they have held up well- some of the lines are faded a bit but not as much as my large (whole table) mat faded. i do have a (mat cleaning disc) which is like a sanding disc with a handle- made specifically for cleaning your cutting mats- i have gone over my squares a couple times- but the (not self healing thing does not seem to matter) in fact- these have held up better- lasted longer than my last much more expensive self healing mat held up. and the portability & convenience is well worth the $ spent.
