Too short

The great thing about this is the price and I got my $10 worth. I would vote for a $15 version that is 8-12 inches longer. This one is a little too short and I find myself sliding off the mat. Also it sinks down into the carpet where the chair is. If the grippers on the bottom weren't so long I would use it in a different area on an oriental carpet atop a hard surface. That would be ideal.
OK for ordinary in home us for a small home office. DO NOT use on high pile carpet. Only use on low pile carpeting. Cheap flimsy construction. Chair forms pock marks and indentations in the chair mat itself. Lacks thickness and smooth rolling ability. Not worth the cost of item.
I use this product at my computer desk on a carpeted floor. The mat's spikes prevent it from slipping and moving on the carpet when my chair on rollers slides on it. The clear color allows the carpet to be visible underneath. I bought this mat to replace a similar one that had multiple cracks. I am hoping that this one lasts well.
