I like that it is clear which keeps it looking fresh. Now having said that It is not thick enough to where my chair doesn’t sink in and get stuck but maybe that only happens if you are on a hard surface and not carpet and/ or you only weigh 175 lbs or less. I can say that I have had worse where it would sink in almost immediately but this one takes about an hour when sitting in one spot. Hope this helps.
So far it's working out like the one we had to replace that one lasted a couple of years but being plastic plastic does have a shelf life and gets brittle and cracks so if I get the same time with this one I will be happy
I needed something to protect my carpet while I am temporarily working from home and this fits the bill. If I were going to work from home on an ongoing basis I would spend more to het a better one but this will do. It is already getting "Dimples" from the chair wheels but it is doing the job and the price was easily affordable. I would recommend it.
