Hard Floor Chair Mat

We had been pricing mats for our den because we just had the floors refinished and when we saw this one for the price we ordered it and it is exactly what we wanted. It fit according to the dimensions we needed and it allows our computer chair to move freely and without falling off the mat. We were very pleased that it came as promised after our order was excepted and that it was delivered by UPS which made it simple to leave our acceptance on the door so that when were not home the driver could still leave the package for us.
We needed a new plastic mat under the desk in our front room. Staples sent a coupon so we decided to use it for the mat. The plastic mat is the correct size but is a little bumpy under the desk. It sits on top of a rug and the chair sometimes has a problem sliding over the bumps in the mat. the last mat developed a crack in it and I hope this one is stronger. I am slightly worried because it already is bumpy. A plastic desk chair on casters has to glide over the mat. Maybe we should have purchased a thicker mat.
These newer mats are made of lighter weight material. Yes you can see through them but your chair wheels sink into the mat creating a divot. It's not very easy to roll your chair around once that happens.
For the price a Great chair mat. I use it on a thicker carpet and that will give it less life On flat pile carpets should be very durable. Improved securing method. No more dagger points on bottom of mat. They use alternet rows of rectanguler cleats. Great idea.
I had a chair mat that wasn't as thick as this one and it didn't hold up and it always moved and it eventually cracked but this mat is made so well and its thicker and it stays where it supposed to stay.This is top quality and I can see that I will get many years of service from this purchase.
