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.
I purchased two for the office just for the high traffic areas where the chairs tend to move alot more. Every time i get close to the mat the corner tends to ride up alittle and well there i go falling on to person next to me.
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'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!
You get what you pay for. Though my carpet is very thin the mate gets indentations from the chair while I sit. I don't know how long it will last if day after day the legs of the chair indent the same location on the mate. I previously had a very thick mate but didn't want to spend 75.00 or better so I'll try this one.
