Precision Quilting Tools 17 x 24 Wool Ironing Mat for Quilting - 100% New Zealand Wool Pressing Pad, Ironing Station Which Retains Heat – Great for Quilting & Sewing Notions!

I like this pad quite a lot. The only downside is I initially purchased it when the description stated it was fine to use with steam. Unfortunately it has distorted the evenness of the pad. I would give it 3 stars due to it being misleading, but because it’s no longer stated that way, I’m giving it 4 stars, as it’s overall a fantastic pad.

It has made pressing these masks so much faster. I did leave my iron on it and it now has a brown spot, but that hasnt affected its use. It is thick and it had a slight odor, but that dissipated quickly. No smell using steam or when it gets hot from pressing.

Was hesitant about ordering this item....read the reviews and decided to order. I love it. I had tried using an old wool blanket doubled over several times, and didnt think much of it. Took a chance and love this so much I will be ordering another one for our vacation home. This is a 1/2 thick high quality very sturdy mat, yet is light in weight. Im working on bear claw blocks that have lots of seams and this product makes my seams nice and flat. I received this item the day after ordering it.....delivered on a Sunday! If youre a serious quilter, yes, you need this.

Like this very much. I am using it for quilting.

First, the product. The wool pressing mat is very well made and thicker than I expected. Quite solid, so I feel it will hold up over time - (will have to come back to confirm). It does hold the heat well and the fabric being pressed does not move around or stretch like on my other padded surface - a bonus when pressing wool and bias edges. Second, customer service. I was sent the wrong size mat. I wasnt sure what to do as I havent had a problem like this with Amazon before. I called the phone number on the label and the gentleman who answered immediately started the process to make things right. I was sent a prepaid return label so all I had to do was drop off the return and I received the correct size mat in just about 3 days. Now that is true customer service - more companies could take note and follow suit - especially having an actual person answer the phone!! Thank you!!

I have used this a lot this week and really like that it is so light and that the heat does not penetrate through to the underside. It suggests not using steam which is the only downside, but you can use Best Press with no problems. The board I was using before was heavy, but very study. I had to quit using it as I was having trouble lifting it. This is so much better. I recommend it. I only wish I had bought a larger size, but this will work just fine.

This is the first time I have used a wool mat and I am very glad I chose this one. Of course when you use steam, it is going to smell a bit, but it just smells like wool - not any different than steaming wool clothes. When used with a wooden clapper, seams are flat, flat, flat! Love it.

This is a good pad. But you may want to consider that it looks like a scratching mat to cats. Alas. Now mine is one sided, and hidden from Hannibal.

So much better than my small tabletop ironing board. Perfect for small pressing but also great for large items. I can lay them out on my cutting table, put this underneath, and press easily instead of having large quilt tops slide off my large ironing board.

Had been tempted to buy one of these for a long time, but the price always put me off. I finally succumbed after seeing all the great reviews and Im so glad I did! Wrinkles and creases just seem to vanish and its great to have set up near my machine when Im piecing. Has reduced the pressing time as both sides are done at once. Very pleased with the performance and have found it to be well worth the money.
