Grama Jo have you checked to see if you need to take it off the base and turn the base over? The base has one side that is a hard plastic-- if you make sure that side is up then the hard surface of the mat bottom will glide right over it when you go to turn it. The other side of the base is softer feeling and if you've got your cutting mat resting on that it does get hard to turn.
