This is working out perfectly to protect my wood floor. I spend hours at my sewing machine and rolling back and forth was starting to mark up the floor. This only moves about 1/2” throughout the day and it will be easy to sweep or even vacuum . I highly recommend it for wood floors; don’t expect it to work as well on carpeting as that is not what it is made for.
I ordered 3 floor mats and they were not shipped in boxes. They just had a label slapped on them and put on a UPS truck. The plastic got bent from being upright and they have taken a couple of weeks to flatten out. Pick these up in the store if you have that option.
This is the second chair mat I've bought from Staples at this price point for use on medium-depth household carpet. The previous mat lasted just three years before cracking badly enough to be unusable. This mat is clearer and looks thinner but after several it seems to be holding up better. My rolling chair hasn't worn any grooves into it. I wish it were a heavier more durable plastic but am hopeful that it will last longer. Note to other buyers: if you buy this mat rolled up let it warm and soften for about a day before trying to unroll it. Once you get it unrolled with the smooth side upward let it relax for another day. It will flatten fully but it takes a little patience.
