Good but the strap is a gator clip
Nice mat does it’s job and has great length on the snap button to the ground. The dislike I have is the strap doesn’t connect or insert where the ground comes in I just had to gator clip onto the other button… also wish it came with a ground tester but there are other ways to do that.

Not as heat resistant as a silicone mat
I purchased this mat for my 6' electronics bench I was building. It fit perfectly :)I was disappointed in the heat resistance though, if a soldering iron tip stays in contact with the mat for long, it will damage the mat. However, solder drips and the like are fine.Just need to figure out a way to get the mat to lay down, the edges tend to want to curl up.

Off by 5/16" and damaged
I ordered a 2'x4' mat for my workbench. Part of the reason I chose this item was the size. My workbench is _exactly_ 2'x4' with a raised lip. This mat is exactly 2' 5/16” by 4', so it doesn't fit.I emailed the manufacturer for info and got a quick response. This level of inaccuracy is expected. The item description says '24.0"', suggesting a margin of error much lower than 5/16". For that reason, I'm rating 3 stars.The mat itself seems nice at first glance. But now I'm faced with having to cut it down to make it fit, and that will mean I can't return it if it turns out not to be good for some other reason.EDIT: I was so busy being annoyed about the dimensions that I didn't notice the 8-inch slit in the center until later. It looks like they started to cut it there and stopped. I'm really glad I noticed before I cut it to fit my workbench. I'm returning it.

Nice pad for protecting little engineering projects.
I bought this pad to protect some Rpi and Arduino's, and shields I am prototyping. Seems well made, and they claim Made in America - so I paid a little more than the ones from China and am quite happy with that. It came as advertised and looks decent on my office desk. The wrist strap is decent quality, and the wire is reasonably heavy duty to withstand tugging on it. I would have preferred the end of the wire terminate in a wall plug (I added one, connecting only to GND) or banana plug rather than the ring connector, but that's a small nit.

No complaints. Works as advertised.
Been great for a soldering bench for the last 2 years. No complaints.

I love this mat
SO the map fit my desk almost perfectly. It was about an inch short of the length but the with was great. The mats texture is a little rough but you do not really want a super smooth math going on an electronics work bench. The color is a little darker than I thought it would be, but I have to say the color is perfect. It is easy to clean and does not seem to get mark on it that cannot be cleaned.Not sure how high Temp it can take but I have a separate soldering mat that I use. Great mat.

a little this and curls up on the egdes, moves around on a wood table. Had to add a little tackiness on the other side to keep it stable.

Seems OK
I am an electronic hobbyist and I got it to cover my workbench. Seems Ok, in that I haven't zapped anything yet. We will see... It is a good size and seems to be of good quality. I would recommend it.

Good quality and performance, well packaged, as described
Base conductive layer and top dissipative layer within spec, well packaged to prevent creases and marks on surface, rolled correctly so that it lays flat quickly without curling corners. Quality mat.
