This mat is shorter in both length and width from the previous mat that I bought a few years ago. That was the first disappointment (it was the largest mat available at the Staples store). Secondly it is thinner than the previous mat. A big disappointment. I didn't measure the old mat before I bought this one but if I had known about the smaller size and thinner material I would not have bought this product.
Good product...mistake made ordered to replace in all the offices. Be prepared to spend 30 to 60 minutes on each to remove two big label. You will need a hair dryer and Goo Gone. Extremely bad thinking whoever decided to label the mats. DON'T RECOMMEND THE PRODUCT.
There are two big labels on the chair mat! Be prepared to spend 1 hour of your time with a hair dryer and a bottle of Goo Gone. What were they thinking when the labels were applied. Definitely would not recommend.
I bought this product so my rolling chair would not grab at the carpet. Unfortunately I did not read the full 'recommendation' for the product as I have thick carpet with padding. This mat does not grip the thick carpet and I am constantly having to reposition it because it slides. It might work on the carpet without padding and is listed in the description (which I read after purchasing).
