Delivery was the issue: It was scheduled to be delivered on a Wednesday which worked with my M-W office hours. Online it had very confusing details as to its location on that day. I even called our post office thinking it was dropped there. Day ended with no knowledge of where it was. I happened to be in the office on Friday to do payroll since the following Monday was a holiday. While preparing to leave a delivery man came in and had the mat filthy with shoe prints all over it. He apologized for the dirty mat stating it had been lost in his warehouse for a couple of days and was to have been delivered already. As for the product itself.... it wasn't the "lip" I was expecting. While it wasn't a sharp squared off edge the better description for what it does have is 'rounded edges' as a lip to me would me would have been more of a gradual drop from top to bottom of the edge.
This "Low Pile Carpet chair mat w/ lip" is an ok mat. It is nice and smooth on top and stays in place due to spikes on bottom. After using for about 3 weeks it seems to have developed a slight dip where the wheels sit for prolonged periods of time therefore making a slight permanent indentation....which causes a slight blip in the rolling process of the chair. Mat would be a good buy for someone who rolls around a lot and tends not to sit in one place. Otherwise mat seems ok for the price.
This chair mat was what the doctor ordered! For the longest time I had been using an old cotton-based rug in my home office to cushion my rolling chair (purchased at Staples) from the extremely aged carpet in an old bedroom I converted into a library-office for projects underway once I retired. It was a constant struggle to keep the rug from bunching up as well as keeping the carpet properly cleaned. I was told that one or two more machine washes of the mat would result in its disintegration lol! Not only is the rug still usable I can now smoothly move the chair in the office with ease! Thank you.
I have purchased this item at the store about a week ago While i was buying that item in the store everyone working were very helpful and i was very happy when i left. I am thankful that i purchased this item and when i brought it home i put in my office and now it is one of the most useful things i have. It doesn't ruin my carpet from the chair wheels and protects the carpet from being in the way for the chair from go from one side to another. I am just very happy i had a coupon to buy this item for such a great price.
Ordered this chair mat along with a case of paper and it was at our house the very next day. Great savings and superbk delivery. Items were exactly what we ordered and in good condition.
