I finally made my purchase of a rotating mat! As I am a newer quilter I felt I didn't need to spend as much money as the Matilda Mat. I ended up purchasing the Olfa @ Joann Fabrics with a 50% off coupon which made the purchase quite sweet I might say! So far I'm happy with it and see it as a nice addition to my sewing room.
Thank you again for all of your thoughts and experiences.
