My fault for not measuring first but this is about 6" more narrow than the last one I had and that 6" makes a difference when swinging (or trying to swing) the chair around. Also mat is too soft and chair wheels sink in.
I bought this to replace a pad used on commercial carpet thinking it was as good as advertised. When it arrived it was exactly the same as one purchased locally for commercial grade carpet. I should have saved my money.
This mat is too thin for anything other than Commercial grade carpet. If you have any pile at all to your carpet. Better get a thicker more rigid mat. Sorry to say they cost more $.
At first I thought it would be to big but the staff person loves how much wider this is. She rolls from her desk to a hutch that holds her computer. The first thing she said was it fits.
This is a decent mat best used for hard surfaces or very thin carpet. The thickness is minimal & if you are of decent weight on moderately thick carpet your chair wheels will sink somewhat into the mat. I am able to slide around alot better than without it & it's better than nothing. A thicker mat is best for thicker carpet. Not sure how long it will last though. It's good for the price I paid though
