We just moved into a new place and needed mats for our carpeted office space. I chose this one to save a few bucks over the deep pile mats because I thought it would still be OK. It works but moves around more than we like. Another issue was that when it was delivered it was very cold and we did not notice that one corner had shattered from the cold. It's still very useable but be aware to check before the driver leaves. Since we had not we felt we could not prove it was that way when it arrived. Otherwise a good product but not for our deep carpet.
This carpet protector seemed to work for for about 6 months but then developed a tear which turned in a large hole making it useless. I'm going to contact Staples about a no charge replacement under warranty.
