A 200lb weight on a 5-wheeled office chair is too much for this mat. It does protect the carpet from the deep wheel marks; however the chair wheels create depressions in the mat. Hindsight tells me I should have opted for the heavy pile carpet (I am currently working on ~3/8" pile carpet)
The mat I received is not good for 3/4" carpet/padding

Our shipment arrived the driver recognized that it was chipped/cracked (it is cold here) so he returned it to warehouse without notifying us and we had a replacement delivered the next day. I have not noticed any issues with smell as I know that was an issue with a mat we ordered several years ago. The reason I am giving this mat 2 stars is that it is supposed to be rated for 3/4"carpet pile but it is creating "pits" where the rollers are at while I am sitting at my desk. So I get "stuck" and have to use extra force to back up my chair. The mat doesn't have very deep carpet numbs on the backside and the only label was only the staples shipping label so there is no way to confirm that I got the correct mat. I measured my carpet with a paperclip before ordering this mat and it is 3/4" high carpet and pad.
I am pleased. This May seems sturdier than my previous one. Also the delivery was a major help. I’m a senior who would not have been able to transport it from the store. Thanks
They are difficult to roll on. Yes I do have short-worn-down pile and didn't want to spend any more than I did. However being a secretary all my life I do know that heavier/thicker chair pads were available. These were super for rolling any size office chair.
This replaced an old and thicker chair mat that developed holes. It fit neatly up to and under my desk and my chair rolls easily on it. I like that it's thinner and yet still provides the same smooth ride the older and thicker one did before it started to fall apart. I expect it will last many years as the old one did.
Chair and pad arrived as promised. Reasonably easy assembly. Chair itself is a bit stiff/firm but that is probably because of newness. Looks good in office. Still getting used to it but overall am very pleased.
This artist's studio now sports a neat sturdy and compact large floor mat to protect the broadloom when the painter "tears loose". It's a lot nicer than an oil cloth! Economical enough so that it can be replaced when it gets too covered with paint droppings. The cat loves it too!
