Great for home office

Curious to see how the mat wears over time. I just bought two of them and it solves the problem of the chair wheels rubbing on my wood floor. I did not give it five stars since I have not had it long. It seems durable enough and it does not look too bad either. If it keeps my wood floor from being ruined then I recommend this product. It was reasonably priced. So far I'm happy with this product :0)
I'm using in a home office on a low pile carpet. The mat does not slide but effectively lets my chair slide while protecting the carpet. Wonderful price ... Wonderful value!
This was perfect for my home office. It is thin enough to still show the carpet underneath - in fact unless you know it's there you don't notice it - yet durable to let my chair roll around on it. It suits my needs perfectly.
I have a 1/4" pile carpet and the casters from my desk chair sink into the mat and make it difficult to move the chair. That is precisely what I was trying to avoid by buying the mat!
I bought this to replace the exact same item that I purchased four years ago so that show the longegivity of this mat. The price has increased by ten dollars over those four years though. And yes over time the plastic does what plastic does - yellows and cracks but the old one although cracked is still fully intact. I will be using it to protect surfaces when I do craft and painting projects. I do wish I knew how to recycle this large piece of plastic. Recycle centers don't want it and I don't want to send it to a landfill - but probably will eventually.
