The heat mat is a tremendous blessing to have. I can get more pieces done at once. It is just what our busy studio needed to keep up with demand. The only thing I wish were different is the cover. It really needs a wire framework inside so that it stays open. It caved in on one piece. The cover cleans nicely though so that was a plus. We thought of getting a second one but we'll wait and see if we are able to fix the cover ourselves first so that it is more firmly open. That being said, if you get this mat, you'll be glad you did! Had the cover had framework, we would have given 5 stars.
