I bought the biggest size mat Olfa had. In less then a month it started peeling. The response from Olfa was sorry, not our problem, mats are not guaranteed. I won't by Olfa mats again. I've never noticed a mat being stinky but I have read many have bought some that were. I think the answer was it was a bad batch and they were being replaced. I guess I should have told Olfa my mat stunk!

I've been using my Olfa for about 12 years, and no problems!

I've also been using my Olfa mats for many years with no problems.

I've just bought a new one 3' x 2' but haven't taken it out of the package yet so cant tell you if it stinks! Will let you know. ;) Look out with leaving it in the sun though as it could warp irreversibly. :?

I have a June Taylor and the Duraheal ones and they don't stink. Can you try wiping it down with antibacterial wipes?

I have June Taylor, which has an ironing side and a cutting side and love it.
Also have an olaf that is large, good also

I guess the new Olfa's aren't made like the older ones. I have several older Olfa's and they are great mats. That's why I bought a new Olfa. The new one up beside the older ones has noticeable differences.
