When I got my "Go" when they first came out they gave a mat that was gray and lasted much longer...Then I noticed
they started to sell the white ones that don't last long...it's all abt money. So I try to use the small mat over the cut I'm making if the die has several diff cuts I don't need...Why put additional cuts into the lg mat if not covered by material.
I just treated myself to the new electric...will sell other on ebay. Cant wait to have the ease of not having to crank anymore!
