I got these because they would arrive next day. So far, so good. Do keep in mind that all the measurements are in inches. Cricut has centimeters (cm) on one end of the mat. The inches are actually great because I like to alternate ends on the mat (so it gets even usage) and I'm the kind of person who uses as much paper scraps as I can and have become an expert at matching the squares with the screen; it's hard to do that on the cm side of the mat. The heavy grip mat really is sticky, but after a few uses of cardstock, it gets better. A spatula and gently separating paper at no higher than 45-degree angle is your best option at preventing tearing and curling. I prefer to use glossy or pearlized paper with the heavy mat as it transfers fewer fibers and it keeps its stickiness longer. The heaviest cardstock I've used is 65lb (or heavy duty cardstock from paper studio) with the regular blade and 2x passes at standard pressure and it works great with these mats. So one thing I've learned about my Cricut Maker is that it is heavy duty and the rest is up to the mats and cutting settings to get the results you want. I use that little cricut scraper tool to really stick that cardstock on there when the mats get old. Overall these mats are working great with my Cricut Maker and I couldn't be happier with the quality.

The Brother SnC mats look to have a code on them that the machine reads when scanning. I will only use them with my Cricut tho I have both machines. **Q: why are these not working with my cricut? I keep receiving a "longer mat required" error. Project is within parameters and 12x24 is selected.** A: I actually purchased the 12x12 version. Not sure why my review was combined with the 12x24. My understanding is that its a glitch and you have to reach out to Cricut to replace it, also read a work around is to choose “smart materials” so it doesn’t measure the mat. Good luck **Q: Are these the same size as Cricut mats?** A: Yes they are. In fact, I don’t really find them to be any different than the Cricut mats I have purchased. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ REALIKE 12x12 Variety Pack Cutting Mats *by M***A on December 17, 2020* This is my second time ordering off-brand mats for my cricut.

They make my thinner vinyl and other thin cutting projects so much easier. I use mine quite a lot so the adhesive is have a bit of struggle keeping up, as it has started to loose the stick a bit, but not enough to need to replace them yet. I haven’t had anything stick to it too bad, and as long as you keep the clear plastic cover, they stay pretty clean. ## Frequently Bought Together - REALIKE 12x12 Lightgrip Cutting Mat for Cricut Maker 3/Maker/Explore 3/Air 2/Air/One(3 Mats), Gridded Adhesive Non-Slip Cut Mat for Crafts, Quilting, Sewing and All Arts - Cricut StandardGrip Machine Mats 12in x 12in, Reusable Cutting Mats for Crafts with Protective Film, Use with Cardstock, Iron On, Vinyl and More, Compatible with Cricut Explore & Maker (3 Count) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/164047368-realike-12x12-lightgrip-cutting-mat-compatible-with-cricut-maker-3](https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/164047368-realike-12x12-lightgrip-cutting-mat-compatible-with-cricut-maker-3) --- *Product available on Desertcart South Africa* *Store origin: ZA* *Last updated: 2026-04-23*
