I purchased this chair mat for my home office. I have wall to wall carpet and did not like the marks left from my chair. It was delivered without any packaging or protection. Whether from the truck or how it was left at my home it was curled in several places. I put it in place and left heavy items on the corners and edges were needed. The chair mat is now flat the chair moves smoothly over the surface. Long term performance will certainly be beneficial. I am glad I purchased during a sale with the added bonus of an additional $10.00 off.
We have been using these chair mats for years and they are great. The doctors' chair doesn't roll well on the carpet so we got these. We have replaced them a few times because after a few years of rolling back and forth on them literally 100 times a day they do break down! I think for someone who gives them "normal wear and tear" they should work perfectly! They ship them flat now too so there isn't any waiting for them to unroll. I think the material is better than it used to be too because it doesn't smell bad like chemicals anymore.
Not a good quality. It is bending at the point where the wheels of the chair are contacting with the chair mat. I will not suggest to buy this product for any one. Thanks
