The mat works well in our office. Its an upgrade over the previous mats we had used. It stays in place on the carpet and the wheels of the chair roll easily on the mat.
I purchased this mat to replace an existing one. However it was smaller than the existing one so I ended up using it in another area. This worked out fine because it was the perfect size for my smalller desk and chair. Their is no carrying handle as on the larger ones but you don't really need one because it is light enough to easily carry and I won't be moving it around anyhow.
