I have a Martelli mat that I use when I travel. It fits in my largest suitcase. I got it because it can be left in a car. I don't leave it for days, but nice to know I can have a meal without dragging my mat in with me! I have not tried the Quilters Select but will be interested to hear about them as time goes on. I use Olfa at home. Probably wont' get another mat unless one wears out. I am trying my best to do that!
