This "Low Pile Carpet chair mat w/ lip" is an ok mat. It is nice and smooth on top and stays in place due to spikes on bottom. After using for about 3 weeks it seems to have developed a slight dip where the wheels sit for prolonged periods of time therefore making a slight permanent indentation....which causes a slight blip in the rolling process of the chair. Mat would be a good buy for someone who rolls around a lot and tends not to sit in one place. Otherwise mat seems ok for the price.
This chair mat was what the doctor ordered! For the longest time I had been using an old cotton-based rug in my home office to cushion my rolling chair (purchased at Staples) from the extremely aged carpet in an old bedroom I converted into a library-office for projects underway once I retired. It was a constant struggle to keep the rug from bunching up as well as keeping the carpet properly cleaned. I was told that one or two more machine washes of the mat would result in its disintegration lol! Not only is the rug still usable I can now smoothly move the chair in the office with ease! Thank you.
I have purchased this item at the store about a week ago While i was buying that item in the store everyone working were very helpful and i was very happy when i left. I am thankful that i purchased this item and when i brought it home i put in my office and now it is one of the most useful things i have. It doesn't ruin my carpet from the chair wheels and protects the carpet from being in the way for the chair from go from one side to another. I am just very happy i had a coupon to buy this item for such a great price.
Ordered this chair mat along with a case of paper and it was at our house the very next day. Great savings and superbk delivery. Items were exactly what we ordered and in good condition.
I've ordered this item in the past. As with most plastic mats they do deteriorate over time so they do have to be replaced. The only complaint is the mats were very dirty upon delivery. Not sure if the delivery person is to blame or what but I had to scrub them before I could use the mat. Otherwise no other issues.
I've had this for just over a week now and I noticed that the mat shifts from normal use. Just this morning I measured that the mat had moved 6 inches forward under the desk. It only stopped because it hit one of the legs on the desk. I'm using this on a LOW pile carpet with a 5 caster rolling chair and I only weight about 180lbs. As others have reported the 'nubs' on the bottom of this mat are worthless. Furthermore the thickness of the mat is not substantial enough to warrant being called a 'medium pile' mat. As I said I'm using this on a low pile carpet and the chair makes a noticeable indentation within just a minute a sitting down. I fully expect this thing to crack within a year. Just poor quality in every regard.
