Good floor protector. Works very well on a carpet. Lets desk chair move more easily. Not so good on hardwood floor because of the little points on the underside. This is a lot less expensive that most of the name brands and may be slightly smaller but the quality is just as good.
Before purchasing this chair mat I put small area rugs in front of each computer at my tutoring center. The rugs would get bunched up and dirty quickly. Now every computer station has a Staples Chair mat. Easy to clean stays in place -- a world of difference!
I was looking for a pad that I could use for rolling my chair where my computer is. I found that the thickness was not enough. The wheels leaves an indentation after I sit on the chair. The length and width are perfect but the gauge thickness is less than good. Your catalog and the store display does not have this particular size pad in a thicker version. I have little space available to put a larger one in the area. I don't know if one is made in the smallest size available but it would have been better. My chair leaves big dents in the plastic. It's slightly better than just the carpeting but not by much.
The bamboo mat I looked at probably lasts longer but I don't want to pay that much money for something my desk chair is gonna roll around on. This is a good cheap fix.
I bought the matt to put in my carpeted office room...it's just too thin for a 200 LB guy...already cracking after 2 months or so...needed a bigger mat.
I would not recommend this chair mat at all. We replaced it with a higher quality from a different store within a week. You get what you pay for is so true!
