Product quiokly shows indentations
on July 24, 2010

The mat is fine but it quickly shows my office chair wheel indentations. I'm not sure how you would get around this problem unless you made the product much thicker - which is not realistic. The mat "lifespan" is about 4-6 months then it starts cracking (from the weight on the indentations and 'aging)')
I bought it for our computer room but think I got the wrong thickness for the carpet in here. Our chair doesn't roll as easily as I want it to. But the mat is fine.
After 2 weeks I ended up returning this mat and getting the 130 ml thickness mat. Only 2 weeks and already there were deep wear marks from my office chair. I am a small 125 pounds so this was surprising to me. I have regular basic carpeting no fancy pile carpet or extra padding. This mat should only be used on commercial carpets with wood/concrete directly underneath. No regular carpeting for this mat as it is not strong enough. Very disappointing and definitely learned a lesson. If there is any doubt reading the description start with the more expensive product.
