OK but moves

This chair mat works well in protecting the carpet but every 2 days I have to re-position it. The mat tends to move 4" - 8" (primarily back away from the desk) after a couple of days of sitting in and moving the desk chair backwards in order to stand up. If that won't bother you it works very well.
depressions formed the first day I used this chair mat from the wheels on my chair. I'm not heavy so this mat isn't thick enough to withstand normal use in my opinion
I use a rolling walker and need a flat surface to use over the rug underneath my desk. I use this mat adjacent to one of Staples' desk mats to make a large smooth surface. Ir works geat.
I was a bit unsure about this purchase after reading the reviews. I had my previous mat for at least 15 years. I was surprised that it was delivered flat not rolled and in a box. So it laid down perfectly. The only con is the large label that was stuck on. Our custodian graciously scraped it all off with a knife which took some time. It would be great if you used peal and stick labels.
This product was purchased on 12/21/2012 and started cracking at about the ninth month. It is coming apart and had to be replaced. The store will not replace it and the manufacture will not take my calls.
We have recently purchased a new chair mat for one of the offices. We purchased a Staples Flat Pile Carpet Chair Mat /Lip 36" x 48" because the last 2 Chair Mats we have purchased came from Staples and have held up very well to everyday use. The Staoles Flat Pile Carpet Chair Mat 36" x 48' will be in constan use over carpet and we expect the chair mat to hold up as well as the other two that have been in use now for a couple of years. The Staples Flat Pile Caarpet Chair Mat /Lip- 36" x 48" is the right choice for use in our office!
Using this mat on a low pile carpet works good but a roll around chair does have a tendancy to deform around the wheels. You must jog the chair out of the indention. The mat does stay in place.
