Does Not Work Well

I specifically looked for a mat for medium carpet. This mat is too thin so depending on where the wheels are on the chair it dents the mat into the rug. It's a struggle to get out of the "rut" I created. Also mat moves around and I'm constantly needing to move it back. I'm not sure if I can return this since I already got rid of the sticker on it. :-\ I'll see if I can find something that I can put underneath to get a stronger base.
The chair mat is exactly what I was looking for. It is heavy enough to stay in place and my chair rolls smoothly. I recommend it to anyone that wants to protect their carpet.

Not that great

I paid a decent price for this chair mat and thought my chair wouldn't make divots in the mat. I was wrong. it is hard at times to roll my chair on my carpet and the mat moves which isn't supposed to. I am not too happy with this purchase. I gave it a month to review.
This mat has little spikes on the under side which keep it from sliding around when I move my chair. Unfortunately when I sit in one place for a while the chair creates dents in the mat; then when I try to move the chair rolls back into the dents! I'm not sure what I'll do about that.
The mat is less rigid than I expected so the chair kind of sinks into it a little and gets stuck in one place. My biggest complaint is Staples attached a big shipping label to the mat which absolutely cannot be peeled scratched or chemically removed. So now I have a big sticky black spot which my shoes stick to...
I am very happy with this mat. It's a good size and thickness. However it was delivered without any packaging - not even a band tying it up. It was left propped against the front door in the rain. Had to struggle to get the door open struggle to get it inside wait for it to dry then wipe it down (wasn't too dirty).
