Too thin No better than having my chair on bare rug. Gave it away
I bought this flat pile carpet chair mat to go on tight firm flat pile carpet in a dental office under a Staples work chair in which I sit for several hours daily. I weigh 185-190 pounds. The chair's 5 wheels literally sink into the mat when I sit down; it is that flexible and soft. Rolling from a computer location to a file cabinet or records shelves in the office requires literally pushing the 5 wheels out of 5 depressions in the mat which takes negligible effort but should not need to be done in the first place. This mat does not compare with mats I have had before for similar carpets but today's choices appear to be much more limited; unless things change when this mat wears out I might consider going without a mat.
This is a nice mat and it arrived flat. It's shiny and thus stays looking new longer. It doesn't move around on the carpet when I move my chair. I like it a lot.
I wouldn't recommend it. As you can see from the attached 2 photos the chair sinks into it and then it is hard to roll it around. Very thin material and not very strong. Needs to be a thicker material.
This is a soft plastic chair mat that when the chair sits in one position it causes dents. Overall it's overpriced for what you get. I would not recommend. This needs to be built thicker and stronger for the money.
This is a great product and does stay on the thin office carpet I have it on. That's not the problem in fact that's a good thing. However my darn office chair wheels continue to slip easily off of the mat which makes me crazy. Because I just had my left hip replaced and when I go to sit down I have to make sure that I'm holding onto the arms of the chair very tightly or the chair will leave me and I'd fall down. Life gets crazier and crazier for me. :)
