Staples Flat Pile Carpet Chair Mat Lip
on March 5, 2014
Posted by: Paula K.
This chair mat in our home is doing just we expected it to do. We just had new carpeting installed and wanted to protect it - along with making it easier for the computer chair to be able to move back and forth easily. The Chair Mat has little tabs on the bottom which allow it to keep in place and not shift around. Our wheeled chair easily glides over the mat - even while we're sitting in the chair - and allows us to move closer to the computer and back again in very easy motions. I would recommend this item to anyone who has carpeting near the desk where the computer is located.
We were looking for a mat to go under our swivel chair but did not want one that would cover our wood floors since this is a separate area of our living room it shouldn't look too much like an office. This worked great and was exactly what is was described it would be. The chair slides on it but not so much that when you push back you roll half way across the room. The color is clear enough that you see the wood floors through it but from far away you almost don't notice it. I would recommend 100%.
I LIKE THE MAT BUT WAS A LITTLE DISAPPOINTED WHEN I PLACED IT ON THE FLOOR AND IT WAS SMALLER THAN MY OLD ONE. YOU CAN SEE THE OUTLINE OF MY OLD MAT ON THE CARPET AND THIS MAT FITS INSIDE OF IT.
This mat is so thin that when I sit in my chair the wheels make deep dents in the mat an I can not move the chair without getting out of it. I weight 185. It can not be used on a thin carpet.
