Liner seems good, but releases strong fumes
Color: Taupe, Size: 12-Inch x 20 Feet
The liner is quite functional, it looks fine and is manufactured in a straight/square style (the other thicker foam style liner is not straight and is hard to cut square).
The downside, with the 2 rolls that I got, is that the liner has a nasty off-gassing of fumes, so I suggest cutting it to size, and then putting it through a wash cycle (dishwasher or clothes washer) and then putting it in place after drying. If you don't do this, then those of you who are sensitive to these kinds of fumes, might have to unload the items and wash the liner at a later time.
Many are oblivious and won't notice the fumes (at first or ever) and they just go on, never making the connection as to why their kitchen stinks, or they have headaches (or imagined allergies, etc.). It took me days to figure it out. If you have a new roll of the liner, just smell it, and realize that if you don't wash this material, those fumes will be leaching out into your cupboard for a while (perhaps longer). For those that can't smell it, then I guess you'll be quite happy about that.
While the liner looks fine, and easily cuts square, I can't give this a higher rating as the washing effort adds so much effort to the process.
More and more items produce these kinds of fumes and I think reviewers should mention this as part of their overall rating.
