This is my 2nd chair mat of this exact model in the last year. I installed original in March of 20 on flat pile carpet in home office. Cracks started in November on where the wheels. Glad the price point is so low. Will probably look for thicker more durable mat.
While this chair mat does provide coverage to prevent carpet wear my chair wheels create impressions in the mat and it makes it difficult to roll around easily. I'm not that overweight and it seems this mat should either be thicker or more durable so the wheels of my chair don't get stuck.
I have executive Chair and the size of this mat is perfect for chair and mat does not ruin the carpet(well that's what it is for). Very much happy about the product
When I received the mat I was really looking forward to using it but when I finally got it out of the box and started to unroll it I could barely move it. I thought it might be because it was cold but that made no difference. I struggled to open the mat so had to have someone help me. It took at least 10-15 minutes to finally get it unrolled and then I had to lay on it to get it to release a little bit so we could turn it over. I then put things on top of it to help it lay flat and it stayed that way for two days and when I thought I was ok I turned it back over only to find that the edges rolled back up. So for a week I have been laying things that are very heavy on the edges but to no avail they still turn up. I am returning the mat.
This chair mat must be marked incorrectly. It is extremely soft and the studs on the bottom are very short... certainly not for a medium depth carpet. The empty chair makes divots just sitting there.
