This is advertised as an XL dish drying mat, and it truly is XL. It's almost as big as my entire stovetop (see photo). When you first open it, there are a bunch of creases in it from being folded up, however, it is machine-washable, and most of the creases come out in the wash. It's exactly the color I was expecting and it will go well with my countertop/kitchen color scheme. I did notice that some of the edges appear a bit uneven, but that doesn't really bother me. It's only noticeable if you're looking very closely.
