Nonstick Silicone Pastry Mat Extra Large with Measurements Dough Baking Mat

I own a KitchenAid pastry mat (Purch’d @ Target) that has a slight tear from using a metal-pastry scraper to divide my partially frozen-dough (pie crust); still 100% functional but, I didn’t have on-hand when I needed it to make “Bao Buns” so, I recently purchased the “blue” pastry mat. It came folded in half-twice inside a clear/plastic/sealed-bag, inside a slender/cardboard-manufacturer’s box packaging, and a loosely-packed very small/black-scrunchie (didn’t notice item until it fell out when I shook box upside down, just in case, right before discarding packaging) w/ a piece of clear-tape on the open-end. Easy to clean - rinsed under faucet (cumbersome part despite having a deep-sink), placed back onto countertop to lightly wipe off top-surface w/ sponge + soap (easily w/ NO scrubbing/scraping/force needed at all!), rinsed thoroughly under faucet, shook off excess water, hung across the back of a chair to fully air dry, rolled up, used “scrunchie” to secure mat in place & prevent from unraveling then, stored away w/ rolling pin. •Details: mat is a large/generous size (larger than KitchenAid mat), thick (thicker than KitchenAid mat), durable, 100% non-stick top-surface (w/ dough; not tested w/ caramel/etc. yet), backing has great adhesion (no sliding/shifting at all while working w/ dough, unlike w/ KitchenAid mat) to non-porous countertops (such as marble, granite, and other faux/non-porous surfaces; NOT effective on porous surfaces such as wood/laminate surfaces)… The ONLY downside (to me) is that it only has circular measurements for circular-shaped doughs + measurement around perimeter vs. KitchenAid mat has the circular measurements in center, around the perimeter PLUS, an additional feature of horizontal + vertical measurements across entire surface (edge to edge) of mat for square/rectangular/elongated-shaped doughs. •Overall Opinion: I’m very pleased w/ my purchase (product quality + price), would def recommend… but, may consider looking for another mat that has both types of measurements (for square/rectangular + circular-shaped doughs) like the KitchenAid mat, in the future. I think this mat will last for a long time if properly handled & stored, and by avoiding the use of very sharp objects (knife, etc) on surface; NOT indestructible or cut-resistant (IMO)! Note: I have NOT tested using my metal-pastry scraper on this mat yet, fearing that it may cause a tear like it did w/ my KitchenAid mat but, based on its’ thickness, may be less likely to tear if strongly pushing down a metal-scraper into mat when dividing/cutting firm/frozen doughs (use caution if doing so)!? Also, have NOT tested mat in an oven, or applied anything hot on top of its surface so, can not attest to its claim to be “heat resistant”!

I have been using these mats for 3 1/2 years, and they are still perfect. I have both blue & white and the red & tan in various sizes. When I first got one, I put it in a preheated oven on the middle rack at 460 degrees for a half-hour. There was no damage or yellowing... no reaction at all! These won't slide around on a table, counter or metal surface but I have found nothing that sticks to either side (reversible). They are heavy-duty, thick and very durable. They are also trimmable to whatever shape or size I need, with no fraying or bits of fiberglass (unlike many other brands). I've used them for lining baking pans or my oven, toaster oven, and even cut the outer circle of one of the 28x20 mats for a perfect fit on the glass turn-table in my large Panasonic microwave oven. It pads and protects glass from my dropping glass bowls (I have fairly severe arthritis, so an unreliable grip) as well as being light weight and Much Easier to remove and clean spills and spatters than the large heavy glass, and unlike paper towels, nothing soaks through onto the glass. I seldom write reviews, as I feel it's misleading to review something without first using products extensively (unless it is obviously junk to start with), and by the time I have enough experience with a product for a reliable review, I usually forget to write one, as well as typing being difficult and uncomfortable due to the afore=mentioned arthritis . I just happened to think of this while searching Amazon for something else. I will be copy/pasting this review on the Amazon listings for my other sizes and colors, so don't be surprised or think it's from seller or spammer. I had never heard of or had any dealings with "Folksy Super Kitchen" before or after these mats, but I won't hesitate to buy their products again if I see something from them that I need or want.

Love the pastry, baking mat size is great. Love the measurements so I know exactly how big I’m rolling the dough. It’s easy to clean and I love the type you can use when you roll it up. it’s good value for the money. I will order this again.

Indispensable product! Perfect surface for working the dough and not scattering flour all over the kitchen counter! Easy to clean. Measurement markings are helpful. Rolls up and stores nicely. Caution! Silicone surface is tough but not impervious to knife cuts! I accidentally sliced it with a butter knife. The tiny serrations were enough to slice right through! But I’m ordering another because it’s otherwise perfect for my usage. I’ll just be a bit more careful with sharp edges.

This pastry mat has been a lifesaver. I am a professional chef and I carry this in kitchen tool kit on a daily basis the thick silicone surface makes it easy to roll out delicate pastry doughs and is easy to clean up and store

I’ve been using this Silicone Pastry Mat consistently throughout the week for bread making, and I’m so glad I invested in it! While I haven’t yet used it for baking, it has been an incredible tool for keeping my work space clean. The mat is easy to wipe off, making cleanup a breeze after kneading and rolling dough. Its large size gives me plenty of room to work, and I looove that it has measurements to help with precise measurements. I also like how easily it rolls up for storage. It takes up hardly any space in my kitchen, which is a huge plus. Overall, this mat has been a great addition to my kitchen and I highly recommend it for anyone who bakes or enjoys making homemade bread!

Very nice mat. Works great, stays in place on counter. Easy to clean Update: I still like this mat, but be aware, flour still goes thru it into the counter too. Not a lot, just a fine powder left behind

First time I got to use this mat was this weekend. Very nice and easy cleaning and clean up value for the money good.

I love making pie crust. It is challenging to get it just right. This mat makes it so much easier! It absolutely is non-stick. The round measuring guides are so very helpful, and the conversion table for measuring is a huge help. This mat also makes clean up a lot easier. I am totally more than satisfied with my purchase.

Just right for many tasks the non slip is works very well for rolling out icing and pastry

It’s big and hefty.

Damaged

This is perfect for covering a large surface of my kitchen counter. The quality is good.
