Hard to beat this mat. Easy to clean, well constructed, and does exactly what you'd expect. Cheese did not stick and evenly dried. There's enough air flow to dry properly. Great little mat.

This the second cheese Matt I purchased. I was getting mold on my cheeses from using the same Matt when I was flipping my cheddars during drying. Having a second one has eliminated that completely!
