Used under an office chair at my sewing machine on a new vinyl plank floor this is ideal for the purpose. It is hardly visible and protects the floor. It was shipped flat which kept it from being curled at the edges.
Spent the extra dollars for the thicker protection. Made the right choice! Have only had it for a couple weeks but it is SO much better than the old thinner one.
So far so good although the mat walks a bit. I am watching to see how it holds the weight of my desk chair and me. These mats have a tendency to crack and dent. This one is denting to some degree under the weight of the desk chair rollers.
I picked this chair mat because I have another one that I use . It has given me great service. Just made sense to buy the same kind. Bonus ! It was on sale . My Mother did not raise any dummies.
What can I say it's a chair mat. Seems to work well with our low pile carpet.Definitely easier to maneuver around the desk. Quality seems good I guess time will tell.
