    The three piece set is $129.99 (includes ironing pad, mat and revolver) on the Martelli website- so it seems Walmart and Amazon prices are better

    Martelli mats are the greatest. I have two and the are also self healing and they are accurate for cutting

Well, I'll wait for the "bargain" to come, I'll pick it up and take to service desk and return.......
    thanks for the heads up! Must read the "read more" ...buyer beware!
    More on this subject..but just to say...

    i went to martelli site - excuse my misnomer earlier - and read carefully....I understand that they too sell mat/base separately, each for approx $49.00 per piece...so even if I have to purchase turntable for additional $29.00 from Walmart, I'm still ahead of mfgr price...so I will do that...when I receive both, I will try out, if not pleased..a quick trip to WM service desk for refund....that's my thought now anyway.....

    I bought mine when Martinelli had a half price sale. Just make sure you get both pieces. I really like mine. It is very sturd, and turns nicely. You can also get the ironing pad that goes with it I'd desired. I didn't.

    Default Martinelli mat

Well, did a search, and Walmart carried, but has to be ordered and delivered to store/home for $27.11. At Martinelli website price is $49.99 +s&h.....I think I know where I'm going to order one from! BTW! Anyone here have, do you like?
    GEri B. Look into crafty quilting. I ordered two at Christmas time and love mine. Mom loves hers too. They were around 39.00 ea. Love love love them

    Let me know when reading the description this is just the map does not include the base that makes it turn that is sold separately.

    The base and mat are sold separately so the mat part can be replaced without buying the base again.
