I use the mat in a home office where I sometimes work all day. The mat isn't thick enough to prevent indents from the chair's casters which then makes it hard to roll the chair.
I have extra thick padding under my carpet on the basement level of our home. I believe it would be a smoother rolling surface if we didn't have the extra padding. Otherwise I am pleased and it meets my needs for low-traffic home use. Great price too!
I like the product however I was disippointed in its performace on a thick carpet and pad. Wheels curver product. I put some 1/4 inch cardboard under it and this helps somewhat. For a normal carpet It would work well but.
The advertising stickers that were placed on the mat were EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO REMOVE! Not only that the glue left behind on the mat stuck to the bottom of your shoes and everything else. The residual glue had to be removed with solvent and a metal scraper. Any savings brought about by the low price for this product was spent in labor removing the stickers and glue. Next time I'd consider more expensive mat.
