Got this chair mat to go with the awesome chair we bought for my dad. Mat wasn't quite as thick as I hoped it would be so even though it does work well so far the chair wheels still make a bit of a divot in the mat making it a little less than ideal for my elderly father. It is however much better than he had before (cheapo chair that had fallen apart with no chair mat at all for the carpet). He's happy though especially with the chair (which is super comfy and easy to operate). If I had it to do over again I might buy a little thicker mat. However I went with price... (Yeah I know you get what ya pay for...)
Fits easily in small areas to enable desk chairs to move freely on carpet. Durable construction and compares well with higher priced versions of this product. We have used these for several areas in our home. When we added another desk in a bedroom I went back to Staples for this identical product.
After about 12 years I had to replace the office chair mat to protect the rug. This replacement was priced right but it's a lighter softer product which suffers "dents" from the chair wheels and the weight of the chair alone. I don't expect it will last long before the material weakens and cracks and I break the mat while sitting in the chair. I'm 180 lbs. This Staples brand (Quill) product meets the price point but not the quality I expected. I feel let down.
We purchased two chair mats one for a hard surface and one for carpet. Both mats work great on the surfaces they were put on. It is now much easier to roll around while sitting at the desk. It was definitely worth the money to buy these mats as they will probably last a long time and protect our flooring too. We would recommend these mats to anyone that is considering purchasing a chair mat. Staples has a really good selection of chair mats and a wide range of prices available for them.
