Hello! Can this pad be cut to fit? (without edges fraying etc.)

I can't guarantee that it can be cut, but it is made of the same material that is used in most pads. I have trimmed pads from other manufacturers with no fraying.

Yes, i think you can just cut it with scissors. They also make a product called a Frogmat (very similar to this mat). if you can find it somewhere near you they sometimes sell it in a roll and can cut it to size.

Hi Steve...I bought one of these. It is a good material and fits well, but you must make a few cuts with scissors. Jorge

It's just a clean cut edge. I haven't had fraying yet probably because it doesn't get lifted up or moved around like a smaller pad. I've used small amounts hot glue to fix the fraying problem on mouse pads before.

It does fray. I've since ripped the fabric off and now just use the pad by itself.

NOT unless you want to cut the 2 sides. I think they make a shorter size... search for it.

This mat is thick and has a nicely finished edge. With the proper cutting tool you could definitely cut it to fit, but it might not look as good.

No, you can't trim it--cutting it at all ruins the integrity of the mat. However, the mat is very flexible; in fact, it comes in a narrow box, rolled up like a tube. You can usually get it to fit well enough inside a baking sheet with sides. It won't tightly conform, but it hasn't been a problem for me.

The instructions do not indicate that there is a minimum size it can be cut to, they just instruct to cover the exposed edges of the trimmed pad in electrical tape. Hope this helps

hey James!for sur you could cut it, although you'd have to be extra careful and not mess it up: it is a nice product!

Seeing as how the skirt part has no heating elements in it, it's safe to discard that part and use only the heated area. I'd hem up the edges to prevent fraying. Otherwise, you have a good idea going there! I've enjoyed my heated pad very much and look forward to once again putting it on our bed for the cooler months!

It's rather thick. It can be cut, but I think you'd need something other than scissors to do it. Good luck!

I think so because the material is foam and looks like it could be cut. It has a pattern on it but if maintenance of the pattern is not as important as the size, I think you could cut it

Sorry, I misunderstood the question. Yes, you should be able to cut it to fit.

Yes, I went out and bought a mattress foam and cut it to the size of the pad it had. The pad itself is pretty firm.

I think you could cut it to fit and fold over the edge and have it sewn so that the edge does not fray.

I actually didn't think this pad is too large. It is about the size of a 14-15" laptop. The edges are rough already so cutting it should not be the issue, but what you use to cut it might be the issue as I cannot see scissors doing the job.
