floor mat for carpet under desk chair

Staples did what they said when I ordered it came the next day. There was a problem with the first one and we refused it however it was replaced and a new one delivered the very next day. It is performing very well. It was probably a bit pricey overall but if it performs well and we do not have to replace for a long time worth the investment to save my carpet. Thank You Staples!
I was directed to the display of mats - it didn't seem to have what I wanted. Fortunately a "manager" came by and brought me to his "desk." There we found exactly what i wanted. It was delivered the next day and installed the following day. Great!
I am very pleased with the Flat Pile Carpet Chair Mat. The Mat is a perfect fit for my computer desk and chair. What I like the most about the see through Mat is that my office has carpet on the floor and you can see the carpet through the Mat. Can hardly tell that I have a Mat under my chair. So glad that I purchased it and I want to thank Staple's staff for helping me order it while in the store. The delivery came as promised by the staff.
This mat is not very thick - it is fine for very LOW pile carpet and a medium weight user and for my purposes it works. It does bend under the wheels somewhat and with a heavy person it might be hard to roll around because of the indents made by the chair wheels. But it is not flimsy. It came rolled which in itself is not an issue but it was taped closed with clear packing tape and then obviously left in a hot warehouse because the adhesive from that tape was nearly impossible to remove! Tried GooGone WD 40 and rubbing alcohol spent well over an hour and a LOT of elbow grease trying to get it all off and I still have sticky spots on the at where dirt is starting to build up. Had I known cleaning it up would be such a nightmare I would have paid more for a mat that is packaged differently. Bottom line - if you can afford it get a mat that comes flat or rolled in a box but not taped.
Arrived fast & in good packaging but mat is 2-3 mm thick

The size is perfect and as described but the mat is pretty soft and about 2-3 mm thick. Because of that reason it does sink down a bit when you are sitting in it but it doesn't affect the gliding since the indentations will disappear when the plastic/rubber returns back to the original position. It does its job for now but not sure how long it will last. I would much rather have one that had a harder rubber/plastic but this will do for now for the price. Shipping was super fast and each one was individually packed (I bought 2 of them).
First this was my first order from Staples. Very surprised that my order was delivered THE NEXT DAY! Awesome! Second the casters on my chair make bigger indents into the mat than I had hoped for and the whole mat "walks" like crazy. I ended up putting the edge of the mat under my desk legs. Walking problem solved. Basically I am very satisfied but not ecstatic thus the 4 stars not 5.
