High Pile Carpet Chair Mat Rectangular 46 x 60

This mat is about 1/2 as thick as one I purchased from Staples about 10 years ago. That one was "High Pile" as well. I'm hoping the new one will provide similar service. We'll see!
My carpet is not really what I would call a high pile one but a med. one as it is not the best quality of carpeting. I was looking for a mat that had a bigger lip than the #29.00 one as the wheels of my chair dug into the mat. This mat that I purchased I will say the wheels of the chair does not dig into the mat itself but it does slide as the bottom spikes are not long enough to hold it straight. Like I said my carpet is not a high pile one but medium with padding underneath it. I cannot afford to pay more for the mat than I already have to me it was too expensive to others it would be nothing but being on a budget makes a difference. Over all it is a good mat but disappointed that it slips on the carpet.
I should have measured the mat I was replacing. And I should have questioned the density of the plastic it is made of. It turns out that it is too small AND it is so soft that my desk chair sinks in and sticks in place. Unfortunately I am just home one week after hip replacement surgery and cannot get around to take it back to the store (it was out of stock when I purchased it and I had it delivered). I need a larger thicker harder-surfaced mat.
The chair mats arrived on time and are just what we needed. We are very happy with our purchase. The sales personnel at the store was very helpful and accommodating.
