The advertising stickers that were placed on the mat were EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO REMOVE! Not only that the glue left behind on the mat stuck to the bottom of your shoes and everything else. The residual glue had to be removed with solvent and a metal scraper. Any savings brought about by the low price for this product was spent in labor removing the stickers and glue. Next time I'd consider more expensive mat.
I have extra thick padding under my carpet on the basement level of our home. I believe it would be a smoother rolling surface if we didn't have the extra padding. Otherwise I am pleased and it meets my needs for low-traffic home use. Great price too!
I like the product however I was disippointed in its performace on a thick carpet and pad. Wheels curver product. I put some 1/4 inch cardboard under it and this helps somewhat. For a normal carpet It would work well but.
I just got this and it is great for what we needed in our home office. It really protects the carpet well and looks sharp/low profile/clear. I don't know if it will fade or turn yellow in the long run because it is new and I have had it only a few weeks. You can't beat the price[...]so I didn't even have to waste time by walking in a Staples store to buy it or know if this was the best local price with free shipping which it was. Overall great product!
Mat was shipped coiled up inside a box and it took about a week of sitting on the floor with weights placed over the major bends to get it to flatten out. I had expected to see long "spikes" on the bottom of the mat to penetrate the 3/4 inch thickness of carpet plus pad and help provide support. I'm hoping that the mat is thick enough to provide that support without the longer spikes but that will take a while to see. Based on defletion at each chair roller with only about a weeks use I have my doubts. I reallly don't want to have to invoke the warranty!
