Staples Low Pile Carpet Mat Lip

Great product. Does exactly what it’s supposed to do - allows my office chair to move quickly and smoothly from one point to another. Long lasting also. Recommend highly.
Mat has dented and remains so. Carpet slightly flattened underneath. Not on the chair all day so not too worried at present. Not sure how durable it will be long term.
I wanted to get a mat that chair casters would not sink into the mat when setting in my chair so the chair would role easily on the Mat. This Mat does not come close it is slightly better than the cheap mat it replaces. Staples rated this Mat for use on one inch Pile Carpet and Pad best available found. It fails to do the job on this pile that is less than an inch. So far the sinking dips do seem to recover in time after the chair is moved. I weigh 250 pounds many men weigh much more. It seems the best you have to offer so decided I will have to live with it at least for now.
It covers the carpet yes but if you sit in one place too long anything around 5 minutes you make divots in the mat. I was looking for something much thicker but I don't think they make them anymore. I kept them because the ones that needed replacing had actual holes in them because they were so old.
The mat is perfect takes to my high pile carpet beautifully. The delivery process from Staples was totally unacceptable. One day service turned into almost two weeks several phone calls from me promises of new delivery dates.
