Originally ordered this Chair Mat to replace one that was falling apart. It had also been purchased at Staples about 10ears ago. I expect that this one will last just as long.
While the mat doesn't quite work with my L-shape desk (the smaller part doesn't quite fit far enough under the desk to protect the carpet where my feet sit) it is a sturdy mat that looks like it will hold up to extended use. It has also stayed in place on my medium pile carpet and not moved as I have rolled around. I have a fairly large and heavy chair and the mat is not developing any grooves or dips. I hope it will hold up to my first impressions!
I spend a lot of time in my office. I have worn out 2 rugs and decided it was time to protect my rug. I looked at several mats online and in the store. I decided to go to the store and purchase one. They had a colored mat but I decided on the clear nuetral mat for my office. It does everythind I need it to do and was a good price.
The plastic chair mat that I purchased at Staples is wonderful. It hugs the carpet and does not move. You can trim it to fit any size opening. I use it at my computer desk and have another chair mat across from it for my other desk. I would recommend this product to anyone looking for a mat to place over carpet to use with a desk chair.
