The U-Taste 28"x20" Large Pastry Mat is an impressive addition to any kitchen, particularly for avid bakers and pizza enthusiasts. Here’s a detailed look at what makes this pastry mat stand out, along with a few considerations to keep in mind. Pros: Premium Material: Made from food-grade platinum silicone, this mat is safe and odorless, making it perfect for dough handling. Unlike some mats, the U-Taste version doesn't emit any unwanted smells and doesn’t use painted marks that could potentially come off onto your food. Non-Stick Surface: One of the most notable features is its non-stick quality. The mat provides a smooth, clean surface that minimizes the need for excess flour. This significantly reduces cleanup time — what would typically take 40 minutes can now be done in about 10 minutes. Your dough rolls out effortlessly, and you won’t face the frustration of sticking or tearing. Non-Slip and Durable: The mat stays securely in place thanks to its static-cling effect. This feature is particularly useful when working with sticky doughs. The thicker (1.2mm) silicone also ensures that the mat lays flat without creases, even after folding and storing. Clear Measurements and Raised Edges: The clear measurement markings and conversion charts are incredibly practical. They make it easy to roll out dough to precise sizes, and the raised edges are perfect for containing messes. This feature is especially handy when dealing with wet dough or when you want to prevent flour from spilling over. Convenient Storage: The mat comes with two hanging holes, a rubber band, and a small packing bag, making it easy to store and keep tidy. It’s also dishwasher safe, although its size might make it a bit cumbersome to clean in a standard sink. Cons: Size and Washing: The large size of the mat (28"x20") is fantastic for larger baking projects, but it may be a tight fit for some sinks. Cleaning it might require a bit of maneuvering or alternative methods, such as wiping it down or using a larger sink or tub. Color Preferences: While the transparent design allows you to see your countertop, it may not be visually appealing to everyone. If you prefer a different aesthetic or want to hide any countertop imperfections, you might consider opting for the other color option available. Overall Impression: The U-Taste 28"x20" Large Pastry Mat excels in functionality and convenience. It delivers on its promises with its non-stick surface, clear measurement markings, and durable design. While its size might pose some challenges for washing, and the transparent color might not be to everyone's taste, these are relatively minor compared to the benefits it offers. If you're looking for a high-quality pastry mat that makes baking easier and cleanup faster, the U-Taste mat is worth considering. Its thoughtful design and performance make it a valuable tool in any baker’s kitchen.

Bottom line- would recommend I have used silicone baking mats in the past when baking cookies or making bread, but never for prep. I saw this and thought I'd give it a try. I have now used it multiple times - for cookies, bread, pizza dough, and empanadas. So far I am really happy with the performance of this and especially like how it has made cleanup so much easier. The mat appears high quality and is nice and thick. The raised edge works very well at keeping flour, or any ingredient, contained. When baking I like to keep a mound of flour on the counter to quickly add to my dough if it is too sticky or to dust the surface. With regards to being non-stick, overall it works well and dough releases better than a quartz countertop, even somewhat sticky dough (though it still stretches while trying to release...it just didn't leave behind pieces of dough like would happen on the counter). With regards to the stability of the mat while working with it - such as kneading or rolling out - the mat doesn't budge at all if working towards the center. I have had a edge lift once while kneading dough that was still really sticky and I was right next to the edge. Moved to the center and no problems. Only thing that was a minor inconvenience was cleanup of the mat itself. Since it is so large, it was a little difficult to wash and rinse in the sink. However, I'm not sure if I would really want a smaller one and shrink my working surface. The only thing I haven't tried is cutout cookies. At this point I am still too nervous about cutting into the mat with the metal cutouts. Eventually I'll give it a try, but will have to be careful I don't push down too hard. Overall, I am happy with this mat and I find myself always pulling it out to use when making any type of dough.
