Nice but Pricey

We have used several of them over the past 4 years. Its size is suitable for our needs. The are very stable and do not shift. But they dry and crack somewhat faster I expected. They are kind of pricey too.
This product is perfect for what I needed. I was having trouble moving my chair on the carpet wether I was sitting or not. Now there are no longer any issues. It's a good product.
This is the second time I have purchased this item. The original lasted over 3 before it started to crack. I have a very soft carpet so I feel it lasted as long as it should have especially for the price. If your rug is fairly thin then I would expect this chair mat will last longer than the 3 years mine did. The price had remained the same when I purchased it for a second time so it was a no brainer. If you are looking for a decent chair mat thats under $50 then this is definitely your choice a solid mat for a good price.
The only "down" side to this chair mat is I feel it is a bit thin in construction. Chair wheels still make carpet dents but they aren't as bad as without the mat
I brought this item two years ago. It has protected the rug from the repeated rolling of the desk chair. I weighed at that time over 300lbs and used my chair at my computer desk three hundred and twenty five days of the year. It did initially break and continued to break apart about two months before I replaced it. What I am doing is every time I vacuum moving the position of the mat so that I my desk chair wheels are not constantly rolling over the same area. I would fully recommend this product to anyone.
I bought this mat to replace one which had served for more than 6 years of hard use. The new mat appears to be very sturdy and being clear doesn't contrast strongly with the underlying carpet. The chair rolls smoothly on the mat and I expect that the carpet will continue in good condition through the life cycle of the mat. The mat was on sale and there was a good selection from which to choose. The price on sale was very reasonable and I would definitely recommend this product to anyone who wants to preserve a carpet under or around a desk.
