Slip, sliding away.

I'm using this mat in my home office with an dense area rug. While it's far better than the hard plastic mats that need hot baths, hair dryers etc., to unroll and lay flat, as others with rugs have noted, it slowly slides in the opposite direction of your chair's position. After 10-20 minutes or so, it will move several inches.and needs to be re-positioned. 1st world problem, but still.I tried various grip products to keep it in place but nothing worked. Finally, I placed the file cabinet…

Pros
  • perfect clear sturdy office chair matt
Cons
  • The polycarbonate material is prone to scratches and scuff marks

Cannot Recommend in my review

(UPDATED to include pics of both mats)Purchased 2 for the home office and all busted.First one cracked (on brand new carpet) after about a month and they quickly sent me a replacement which I commend them for honoring their warranty. The replacement was damaged in ship - no fault of the seller and I did not report since it wasn't worth the aggravation - and that replacement has 6 cracks throughout. The other mat has a crack right through the center and no claim was made. Just gonna ride it out…

Pros
  • Does not sink into pile or carpet pad. Easy rolling.
Cons
  • This didn't break the bank, but still wasn't worth the $$ spent for 2 months of use.

Exactly what I was looking for

I looked at many different options for my home office and was scared away from most products by some of the bad reviews of cracking, denting, etc. We just replaced our carpets so the pile feels medium to high and this mat does the trick. It's nothing fancy - just a sturdy piece of plastic. Only been using for a few days but so far no cracks or wheel dents. I also love that it shipped in a flat box rather than rolled up. Highly recommend.

Pros
  • This chair mat is so fantastic.
Cons
  • The mat may not fit all desk or chair configurations

It does not last best in my review

I used it on carpet, it works really good until it cracks. It only lasted a little over a month and then started to crack. I weight about 180lbs +15lbs for the chair.

Pros
  • Provides reliable protection for floors from scratches, scuffs, and other forms of damage
Cons
  • The mat may not be long enough to provide ample room to maneuver a chair

Good concept but flawed in use

Ordered this as a replacement for a frosted chair protection sheet and at first looked really good. A few days of use show that the material is not ideal for the intended purpose since it picks and shows scratches so easily. It doesn't appear that this is worth buying over traditional plastic mats.

Pros
  • Perfect for those with back pain, as it offers a smooth and comfortable surface to roll your chair on
Cons
  • The mat may not be stable enough for uneven or sloping floors

Very happy with this mat!

Purchased for a carpeted floor. It arrived in a very secure flat box, which was bit of a challenge to open, but that's why it arrived in such great shape. Desk chair rolls smoothly and mat is clear. which I like. My old mat was opaque. Would not hesitate to order from this company again!

Pros
  • Made from durable and high-quality polycarbonate material, ensuring long-lasting use
Cons
  • The mat may not be wide enough to accommodate larger desk or chair configurations

The quality best in my review

I love the quality and I use it for my computer chair in my office great product I would definitely recommend Office Products.

Pros
  • Office Products
Cons
  • The grooves of the mat can trap dust and debris, making it harder to clean

Great for high chair mat

This is very sturdy and great for hardwood floors. We use it as a highchair mat because any other baby intended mats do not stay flat against the surface. This product is great in that it comes flat - not like other vinyl products that come rolled up - and do not bend or roll at the edges.

Pros
  • I needed a chair mat to use at home because of working from home now bc of covid. It works great!
Cons
  • The weight of the mat can make it difficult to move or reposition

Way to flimsy on my review.

Slip sliding away! Since the thickness is so thin, my chair slides backwards as soon as you sit in it! If I knew this would be the case, I would have bought a much thicker matt. This is a prime example that you really get what you pay for. I have had it about a month now and the edges are curling up, so I have tripped over it one to many times. You need to invest in a much thicker, heavier pad. My mistake on this purchase, so I will live with it.

Pros
  • Office Furniture & Lighting
Cons
  • The mat may not be thick enough to effectively protect flooring from damage

Ideal for hardwood or vinyl comp tile.

I bought this for my new office space when my old mat was cracked in the move. It looks so sharp, I'm going to buy more for the rest of the team.

Pros
  • Excellent mat. This does indeed ship flat (with a protective film on one side). Nice and sturdy.
Cons
  • The transparent design can make debris and dirt more noticeable

This is not for medium pile carpet

This mat is just over a year old and has cracked in multiple places. No one in my family weighs over 185 pounds. Probably Okay for protecting hard floors.

Pros
  • Cost-effective solution for protecting your flooring, eliminating the need for expensive repairs and replacements in the long run
Cons
  • The transparency of the mat can create a distracting or unprofessional appearance in a work environment

I wanted a very sturdy mat for my office chair on carpet. I wish it was more sturdy but for the price point I still would recommend it!

Pros
  • Lightweight and easy to move, making it perfect for use in different areas of your home or office
Cons
  • The mat can become cloudy or discolored over time due to wear and tear

Love this! Great on carpet. Sturdy.

I absolutely love this mat. It is shiny and clear. It is easily visible on the floor and has a chic look to it. It is hard, not bendable. I was worried that it would scratch or crack easily because of this but it holds weight well, and has gotten no marks in the 3+ months I’ve owned it. I have it over a longer carpet (not flat) and was worried that could cause problems as well but it hasn’t.It is stuck in a corner and can’t move much because of that. However, it does move around the small space

Pros
  • Suitable for Multiple Scenarios: Yes, our protective pad is meant to protect your floor from chair casters, but it has other uses. It is so versatile that you can put your favorite indoor plants and ornaments on it, even your painting stand to prevent floor stains and marks. It can also be used as a dog feeding mat to keep your floor clean and dry.
Cons
  • Large or uneven chair wheels may cause damage to the mat over time

Very good product; great service

The product is very good at a great price. However, many cracked after 6 months. The company, rif6.com, was great. They quickly responded and sent a replacement within a few days.

Pros
  • Furniture Accessories
Cons
  • The mat can discolor over time due to exposure to sunlight or chemicals

Chair mat review - my new review

I ordered this item to use at my desk to make my chair easier to roll on the floor. The item was shipped quickly and packaged very well. I haven’t found any issues with this item. It’s easy to wipe down and clean. I

Pros
  • Works great for my daughter room for her rolling chair!
Cons
  • Won't work for low pile carpet as described. Only use on hard flooring.

It's a very good product fgor the price.

We had a flexible plastic floor mat over carpet for our office chair. After several months it broke through. This one is really sturdy and it is so much easier to move the chair around with no hassles.

Pros
  • Really nice mat
Cons
  • The mat is not suitable for outdoor use

Great mat, quick shipping

I bought this mat for my office which has medium pile carpet. The mat shipped very quickly via fedex in a flat box. There were no folds or creases. It's very sturdy and thick polycarbonate. I weigh about 220 lbs and the mat does not bend or dent from my office chair. Highly recommend!

Pros
  • Works well!
Cons
  • The edges of the mat can curl up, causing a tripping hazard

Revainrating 5 out of 5

So far so good. for my opinion

I'm using it on high pile carpet but it seems to be working well. Time will tell. The clarity of it mimics glass floor mats which cost much more.

Pros
  • Great chair mat, very thick strong material. Perfect to protect my new flooring
Cons
  • The mat can slide around on hardwood or tile floors

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great quality and NO unrolling

I tried other brands and all of them came rolled up and were nightmares. This one came in a flat box and was ready to use immediately. Mine sits part on a rug and part on hardwood. It's perfect.

Pros
  • Wish I had purchased tempered glass
Cons
  • The mat may not be durable enough for heavy daily use

Revainrating 5 out of 5

I like this chair mat very much.

I got this polycarbonate chair mat because it is more sturdy than my previous mat. I use the mat under an executive office chair. THIS chair mat is shiny, hard (not flexible), and the chair rolls on it smoothly. I am using it over a low pile carpet, and it does not move or slide around. The mat arrived very well packaged, and it had protective film on both sides of the mat, very easy to peel off from the mat. Overall I think this is a good purchase especially if one has a large office chair.

Pros
  • Great product, very high quality! Highly recommended!
Cons
  • The clear design can fail to match the interior design of a room
