Staples®; Flat Pile Carpet Chair Mat L

First mat bought last year was too thin ffor deeper pile worked ok while new and flexiblie. After aging and becoming brittle after a few months small cracks started then more cracks till it started breaking off in middle of pad where most of the wear occurs. Will check this one from time to time to see if it becomes brittle and cracks during the warranty period.
This Chair mat if obviously used on carpet because of the spiked backing. However unless you have some super hard carpet in your office this chair mat WILL crack and start to fall apart from the chair wheels rolling back and forth. Mine lasted just about 1 year but stated to crack within 4-5 months. Now that large chunks are missing it's finally unusable. My office carpet is the standard tight weaves closed loop kind you would find anywhere. This char mat is designed to fail; too thin & too soft... You have been warned; only with I followed the advice of the other reviewers...
Seems to be working well. Great price with a warranty. It was the size we needed and fit in the spot that the old one came out of. Happy with this purchase
