I chose one of the less expensive floor mats as a beginning point. This one would be fine on low pile carpet with very thin or no padding. I am not heavy and the chair wheels sink into the mat and into the padded carpeting. The good part is the mat is sturdy enough it has not cracked in the 2 1/2 months of ownership.

I'm honestly appalled at the high cost of chair mats in general. That said, this mat is honestly too thin for my use, but I knew that to begin with, and refused to spend more for a chair mat. It's a fine chair mat for what it is, but used on a medium pile carpet like I have, it's going to get noticeable dimples that make it a little hard to roll the chair. But since it's not meant for medium pile carpet, I can't really hold that against the product. I can hold the general price of chair mats against the industry, though. *shakes fist*

      Does not stay in place under the rolling chair. Will not grip to the rug.Creeps to the edge of the desk and rolls up on the side and then will not flatten when it is moved away from the desk. Looks like the wheels of the chair will go through the fabric before long.

        Plastic not strong enough. Chair wheels create wells or indentations in mat and make wheeling across the mat very difficult. Had to replace after 1 week of use!

                      I need to place a chair mat on a Berber carpet. Which chair mat would work? I am afraid to use the one with cleats, as they could pull the fibers of the carpet and cause a "run" across the length of the berber. Would the smooth one be appropriate?

                        Item 561162 is for use on a Berber carpet. It does have cleats on the bottom, but they should not cause damage to your carpet. If you are concerned about the cleats, we do offer a laminated wood chair mat that has rubberized pads on the bottom. It can be used with wood, tile, or hard floors, or any pile carpet- including berber. They come in walnut (item 639097), cherry (item 639091), or oak (item 639092).

                        You need those bubble cleats to hold mat in place. A smoothe surface the matwont stay in place on carpet. I used to sell carpet. Berbers are looped carpets and very durable. Get a 20 oz weight or better on berber she will hold up for ever.

                        Cliff Edge is for deeper pile carpets, and is thicker as makes harder to roll on or off item. Beveled is for carpet also will allow for smoother rolling on or off mat.

                        It is delivered in a rather large box, (about 4'x2' and six inches thick), so the mat is folded to fit in the box. After unfolding it and putting it down on the carpet with a heavy book on one corner, it flattened out in about a day.

                        I believe they will roll or fold it in some way. I bought it in a roll in the store and put it in the back of my car this summer. When I got it out of the car, the roll had flattened within the paper band on it and I was shocked and worried but after applying it to the floor, the folds came out.

                      The featured chair mat is called 'traditional' - I need the rectangle shape. How do I order it?

                        This mat has a rectangle shape but at the front the mat forms a lip that slides under the desk. It is not a perfect rectangle. I am not sure how to order the rectangular one.

                        This mat is actually about 35 3/4" from side to side and from front to back, 38" , with the "chair under desk" part making the front to back 48". The small part where your chair rolls under the desk measures 19 3/4(w) x 10(d). (ALL MEASUREMENTS ARE APPROXIMATE!) Hope that helps!

                    • Q:

                      Does the 36" x 48" include the lip or is it 36 x 58 with lip?

                      How would this do on a tile floor??? I have tile in my office and the chair keeps leaving black marks on the tile.
