WE USE THE MAT AT LEAST MINIMUM OF 8 HOURS DAILY. WORE THE FIRST ONE OUT AFTER APPOXIMATELY 6 YEARS. MAT REALLY SAVES THE CARPET AND ALLOWS FOR EASY GLIDING OF THE CHAIR.
This mat is just fine It takes a lot of "chair rolling" walking on and stacking things on and is holding up well. I doubt I will need to purchase another in the near future but when I do hope to have the same mat. Possibly a pricier mat is even better but why spend more to find out?
This mat is thick. I ordered a higher end one so that it would last forever and also not get stuck on chair casters etc. But I was surprised by how pretty it was! it is crystal clear and lets my hardwood show through beautifully--not what I have seen in offices. so great for home or high-end use or anywhere where looks count.
