The item was not in a box or wrapped. It was placed on my front porch in the rain. The mat has a green stain on the side that goes down on my carpet. I don't know if it will transfer to my carpet.
It was a. Disgrace. It was not wrapped left outside But my husband had a stroke so it’s very difficult for him to manage chair without it. I cleaned it. There where marks on it that I removed with nail polish. I have pictures
My corner desk means most mats are too large but this one is just right. The mat is thick enough that my chair does not sink down into it and get stuck. The mat does have a tendency to slide a little in one direction and it arrived with a huge sticker on it that took a lot of work to get off and there is still residue/markings -- thus no 5 stars. All in all I'm happy with this purchase.
