We just had new carpet tiles installed and got a bunch of these chair mats to replace our old ones. They are smooth to roll on and do the job to protect our new carpet investment.
After our move I missed the old mat and could see that carpet needed protecting. Mat was same as prior purchases and will do it's job. Need a way to cut off tabs for hanging in store. I had shears so no problem but needs to be addressed
This mat is made of very soft plastic. The wheels of my chair sink into it and cannot roll without effort. Since the wheels sink into the mat they also sink into the carpet. So what is the purpose of the mat. I will be tossing it in the trash soon and go shopping at a store what a novel idea and not in line.
I ended up buying two chair mats as they are too thin and the wheels on the chair sink into the mats preventing easy rolling. I weigh about 175lbs so didn't think this would be a problem. Using two mats helps but turned out to be a more costly fix than I had imagined.
