The adhesion is great. I did not have to use tape to hold the cardstock to the mat. The mat went through the Cricut machine without a problem.Bought them on a whim, and they're actually great!GreatI have never used Cricut mats, so I can't compare to those. But I'm having no issues using these off-brand mats. They're working great! Perfect for paper, easy to peel off, and easy to clean and to restore the stickiness.DurableI purchased this item 10 times and keep purchasing it. It has a strong adhesive but it is not damaging the cardstock. It is well wort the money. Instead of expensive original cricut mats, this is my go to item. I tried all other brands but this one is the best!!!!Get this!I love these better than the Cricut brand. They work just as well. Great value for the priceWork well w cricut! Very sticky. Work better than cricut brand mattsCumplen con el trabajo requerido de acuerdo a la relación calidad-precio.I believe it's a good value they r tacky and they came in expected time.
