Slides on floor and a safety hazard!

This thing slides all over carpet like crazy. If you step on this mat without a chair on it you might very likely lose your balance and fall on the floor. Even with the chair on the mat it will still slide and is very annoying.
The grip points are bevelled and therefore do not maintain adequate grip on the floor. As the chair moves around so does the mat. Also the plastic used could be a bit thicker. Returned this mat and bought a different brand which works better.
Seems a bit flimsy so not sure how long it will last but the price was right and replacing it at that price after a couple years would not seem to be a problem.
this chair mat smells awfull even after one night with an open window you can smell the chemicals coming out of that thing. Most likely it´s made out of PVC containing phthalate plasticizers which are unhealthy. I will return it...
