Chair Mat
on June 29, 2009
Posted by: Paula K.
I'm very satisfied with the product for what I purchased it for. My only complaint (and a big complaint) . . . . when I removed the sticker on the pad the pad remained sticky and attracts all dust and dirt. I've tried cleaning it with Ajax and with Lysol kitchen cleaner. So one large corner of the pad is dirty and discolored. I don't know why they have to use that particular type of sticker.
Mat was shipped coiled up inside a box and it took about a week of sitting on the floor with weights placed over the major bends to get it to flatten out. I had expected to see long "spikes" on the bottom of the mat to penetrate the 3/4 inch thickness of carpet plus pad and help provide support. I'm hoping that the mat is thick enough to provide that support without the longer spikes but that will take a while to see. Based on defletion at each chair roller with only about a weeks use I have my doubts. I reallly don't want to have to invoke the warranty!
[...] I mostly just buy toner but everyone is always ready and eager to help you. Product is working ok so far but my chair still does not roll easily like it would on a hard surface.
This is a great product that functions as promised. Be very careful when unrolling and placing this item. The teeth on the underside are SHARP and can take the flesh right off your hands and arms (also a natural lure for cats when rolled up). I would not advise letting kids help you with this. I put some bricks on it overnight after placing it on the rug. By morning it was perfectly flat and has stayed that way. This one is in my teenager's room and I plan to buy another one for my home office.
