Once down and in position it works well at just lying there. Unrolling that prickly monster without inpaling your fingers is impossible. You must fetch the Blackberry pruning gloves and then have a go. GOOD LUCK
Material is soft so I am hoping that means it won't crack like the last protector I had but the softness makes it difficult to roll your chair on when seated as your weight creates dents in the surface.
The product is fine for I need it for. I just wish it were cheaper. I can't believe a piece of plastic is over $20 and that there other ones there for over $50. That is rediculous.
