Bought in October and by early December the mat was cracked and broken. This is with moderate use. Suggest purchasing something else which I now have to do as well.
Moved to a new home with carpeting at my desk so I purchased 2 of these mats (2 desks). The corner of one mat cracked either in opening it or during transport. I have been too busy with the move to return to Staples. I'll likely look for a more substantial replacement at that time.
Bought one earlier this year for our home office. Liked it so much we bought another one for our son's home office. It protects the carpet and eases the roll around chair movement.
