Doesn't Work
on August 22, 2011
Posted by: Paula K.
We just installed good quality home carpeting. The mat slides as the chair is rolled. I ended up putting roofing nails through the mat and carpet into the wood sub-floor. There are deep dents in the mat where my chair wheels have been. I suspect in time the mat will break at the nail points or where my chair wheels have dented it.

A bit small for my needs.

The product is a bit small for my needs and retains wheel indentations making it hard to roll my chair. Will most likely return it and find a different product.

I have never paid so much for something so filty dirty. Had to lay in grass outside & wash off 3 time before could bring in my house.!!! It was like pencil lead powder all over it ! Once clean -- It was just what I wanted.

Chair Sinks Into Mat
on August 21, 2011
Posted by: Paula K.
When I first saw the mat the quality and heavy thickness seemed perfect to use on my plush 1" pile carpet. But after one use I discovered that the mat is not sturdy enough to prevent my office chair wheels from sinking into the mat when I'm sitting down. This renders my chair completely stuck in plastic sink holes so my chair will not roll on its wheels. Bummer. In general however I would say that the mat would be a very nice quality mat for low to medium pile carpets but not high pile.

not recommended

Why do you buy a mat? So chair's rollers won't press into carpet and chair will roll easily. Neither happens with this mat. The castors will dig into the mat and chair will not roll. If you don't get up and move the chair periodically it will dent through the mat into the carpet. I weigh 165 lbs so nothing out of ordinary there.

Not Exactly as Expected
on August 15, 2011

The description on-line lead me to believe this was a heavy duty mat for use on a thick carpet but it is no better at resisting divots from the wheels of a rolling chair than my old flimsier mat. [...]

It just is what it is

This is my 2nd chair mat for this year...my 4th in 5 yrs...normally they last me about 1 year but this one didn't. Having read ALL the reviews on more expensive mats [really more expensive] I decided to go w/this one since it seems to last just about as long as the others. My carpet is not extremely thick nor very thin and I am of average weight [150] so the fact that the mats ALWAYS crack and eventually just give up seems to be endemic to the product! Hope they come up w/one that will last longer then 6 months!
