It's fine. I didn't realize however that there is a difference in what you buy for flat pile carpets or higher pile. So the one I bought is for flat pile. My carpet is not flat pile so the mat allows the chair wheels to sink into the pile a bit and make little dents which are then hard to roll out of. If/when you purchase a chair mat take notice of which pile carpet you have and purchase the appropriate mat. The sales person who directed me to the location of the mats did not alert me to this distinction.
