Not like the old thick plastic mats. They have multiple dents from chairs that make it hard to roll over. Also they eventually crack and require replacement.
Our office recently moved to a new location and my old chair mat was hideous and I was in desperate need for another. My search for the perfect chair-mat lead me to this one it's a perfect fit. The subtle details do not obstruct the overall appearance of the carpet area in which it is lying on. You are still able to see the beautiful carpet right through the chair-mat. The mat is like crystal clear and blends right into the carpet so to speak—it is like it has been camouflaged. It does not stick out like one big eye-sore. GREAT PRODUCT STAPLES!
We purchased several Staples® Flat Pile Carpet Chair Mats Lip 45" x 53". They are a very good quality for the price and hold up very well. We would recommend this item.
I had this mat for a little bit at a new office within a few months is started to crack and fall apart making it very hard to move in my chair. The mat is made for carpet but it's hard to believe due to the quick taring. Invest in a higher-quality mat for an office or at home. Not worth the money for how little the lifetime it.
I bought the Chair Mat for my bunny. I moved into an apartment that has all carpet and I wanted to be able to sweep up the hay that comes out of his cage not possible on carpet. So I purchased the above Chair Mat and it works amazingly for this purpose.
I purchased this mat in late Dec. 2013 and 5 months later it falls apart. not usable and Staples customer service says it's my responsibility to contact the manufacturer. What a big disappointment Staples!!! Do not buy this product.
