Just what I needed

I use a rolling walker and need a flat surface to use over the rug underneath my desk. I use this mat adjacent to one of Staples' desk mats to make a large smooth surface. Ir works geat.
I bought this for my home office. In the store it was my only option even though the display indicated there are several grades to choose from based on one's needs. It works fine not worth a return and continued shopping but it's not what I'd call heavy duty. I'm 130 lbs and there are indentions in it from me sitting in the chair a few hours a day. So far those indents have not obstructed it's ability to be useful.
The mat is unsuitable for medium pile carpeting. It's too soft and dimples from the wheels of the chair. The mat is so soft the chair became nearly impossible to move out of the dimples. The mat was returned. Definitely would not recommend this item.
This product was purchased on 12/21/2012 and started cracking at about the ninth month. It is coming apart and had to be replaced. The store will not replace it and the manufacture will not take my calls.
We have recently purchased a new chair mat for one of the offices. We purchased a Staples Flat Pile Carpet Chair Mat /Lip 36" x 48" because the last 2 Chair Mats we have purchased came from Staples and have held up very well to everyday use. The Staoles Flat Pile Carpet Chair Mat 36" x 48' will be in constan use over carpet and we expect the chair mat to hold up as well as the other two that have been in use now for a couple of years. The Staples Flat Pile Caarpet Chair Mat /Lip- 36" x 48" is the right choice for use in our office!
