Works as advertised. I would recommend it for any in-home office. It's light-weight durable does not slide around on the carpet and blends in with the room décor.
Purchased this last month and placed on top of what I consider 'normal' residential carpet (non-berber carpet). This chair mat is not thick enough plastic to support my office chair. After just a few minutes of sitting the chair's wheels create 'divots' in the plastic mat and after a few hours creates a memory of where my chair was. Spend the extra $ and get a thicker mat if you are going to place on top of non-berber (low profile) carpet.
The quality food the product is surprisingly poor. I used similar product in the past and this product is bad in quality by far. Also shipping method is bad too. The product came folded and distorted. There was no wrapping around it. Definitely not recommend this product from Staples.
