The mat works well on my plush carpet. However it was dropped on my front stoop without packaging of any kind and the sun warmed and misshaped it. A pain to recoil and drag upstairs to the office. Disappointed in lack of quality in delivery.
This mat was pretty thin for use on any kind of carpet. The chair legs sink in the mat "moves" and the edges curl. Walking past I cut my foot on the edge of the mat where it was raised up. I would not recommend this mat for any kind of carpet situation.
This mat can't withstand the weight of an average person as the chair wheels dig into the mat. The mat also slides with the lightest touch. Since it will be used in a home setting I'll live with it.
