[Upgraded Version] Crystal Clear 1/5" Thick 47" x 35" Heavy Duty Hard Chair Mat, Can be Used on Carpet or Hard Floor

This is a great chair mat - it rolls smoothly, is durable, and sturdy for my plus-size frame. It came well-packaged and was easy to install. Since we installed it over carpet and didn't want it to slide, we added screws into the floor at two corners. 10/10 would recommend doing that.

We ordered the two-pack (47” x 59” x 1/5”) and have been really happy with them. The chairs slide so smoothly now that it took a couple of days to adjust to not having to push so hard just to move around. They’re crystal clear and look exactly as described - the quality is excellent.The only issue we had was that they slid around a bit on the carpet since there’s no grip underneath, but we put a few small pieces of clear double-sided nano mounting tape under a couple corners and that solved the problem completely.Unexpected bonus: they stay cool to the touch, which our cats have definitely appreciated during the recent hot weather.

Like many others, during the COVID lockdown I began working remotely and needed to build a home office. The kids are all grown and moved out on their own now, so we turned our daughter's room into an office/spare bedroom. We redeorated, painted and got new carpeting. I was looking for a carpet protector but didn't want one of those thin plastic carpet protectors with the spikes on the bottom - been there, done that, and it seems like those get discolored, crack easily and don't last long. I saw this one and it looked thick enough. It had overall great reviews and the description said it was more durable than tempered glass and can withstand up to 1200 pounds of pressure. I'm not a small man, but nowhere even remotely close to 1200 pounds! So I bought one, and it was really great! It was crystal clear, the carpet looked great underneath, and my chair rolled on it perfectly. It didn't seem to scuff with my chair rollers and I was very happy with it.One thing I found was it did tend to move around a bit on the carpet - not really noticeably while sitting on it, but over the course of a few hours I would look and it has moved away from the desk a couple inches. I just moved it back in place and it didn't bother me.One day I was sitting down and dropped something on the floor and bent down to pick it up and I heard a sound like something had snapped. I looked around and didn't see anything and didn't think much about it. A bit later I heard it again and that's when I saw a small crack developing in the floor protector. It had been about 6 months since I bought it so I was not able to return it to Amazon. I tried to contact the seller since the product description said it came with a 12 month warranty, but I could not find the contact information for the seller. I called Amazon and they agreed to let me return it after all and I ordered a new one. Same experience - it worked well and everything was fine...again for about 6 months. The floor protector cracked again, and this time it was much more noticeable. I decided just to keep it because the cracks didn't seem to affect the chair rolling on it and I didn't want the hassle of trying to return it again, especially since when I returned the first one I had to pack it in cardboard before the UPS store would send it, since this is solid and doesn't fold up. Well, the cracks over the past couple weeks have gotten worse so I'm going to have to find something else.Overall it seems like most people have had great experiences with this product, and so did I for a while. Too bad it didn't last for as long as I hoped.

My previous mat was a heavy duty mat bought from Costco. This mat is much thicker and quality appears much better too. And because it's very thick it does not give way to my 190 lb weight on carpet and allows my chair to roll smoothly between two computers on my 6' foot adjustable desk.It arrived unfolded in a thin flat cardboard covering and had protective film on both sides so it was in excellent condition despite the very thin cardboard cover. Although I have not used it very long, so far I don't have any issues with is sliding as some said. My previous Costco mat had the grippy teeth but that did not stop it from sliding a little either so while I'm not expecting this mat to slide a bunch I would not be disappointed if it moved a little. I will say that this plexiglass mat is way nicer than any other office mat I've used and the best part is was large enough to cover my work area for a 6' foot desk! My only disappointment is that I did not find this mat sooner!

Crystal Clear and Built to LastThis chair mat impressed me right away with its clarity—it’s practically invisible once laid down, so the look of the carpet or hardwood underneath still shows through. The 1.5 mm thickness strikes a good balance: sturdy enough to handle daily rolling of an office chair without warping, yet not so heavy that it’s difficult to move or reposition. Unlike some mats that curl or crack over time, this one lays flat and stays put, which really helps maintain a clean look in the office.I tested it on both a medium-pile carpet and hardwood floor, and it performed well in both settings. On carpet, the mat provides a smooth surface for rolling without sinking in or bunching. On hardwood, it protects against scuffs and scratches while keeping the chair glide easy and consistent. The edges are smooth, so there’s no risk of snagging socks or scratching bare feet.One thing to keep in mind: while the mat is heavy duty, it’s still best to avoid sharp impacts or dragging furniture across it, as that could leave marks. It also arrived rolled up but flattened out fully within a short time, which was a pleasant surprise compared to cheaper mats that take days.Bottom line: A well-made, clear, and reliable chair mat that blends into the room while protecting your floors and making rolling around effortless.

This clear protector is over 1/4" thick. I am 260# and the surface does not deflect much as I slide around on a chair. The only major problem is the protector moves all over the rug. In one week, it will move over a foot in one direction or another. I am thinking of screwing it to the floor. There is no odor. I have tripped on it once but it is over a 1/4" thick. Very clear so far. The rollers do not seem to mark the surface either. So all good, if you don't mind repositioning it once a week. Otherwise, I regret purchasing it. However, the other matts are very soft and flimsy.

Very pleased with these heavy duty chair mats. Description says they are 1/5 inch thick, but they seem (perform) thicker. If you have had issues with chair mats on top if plush(er) carpets, this should be the solution, and they hold up perfectly under a 270lb person in an office chair on our "short shag" carpet. I ordered 2 to support 2 chairs under a long crafting table. They arrived in a single flat box. The box was pretty beat up in shipment, but the mats had protective film on both sides and were in a (thin) protective bag. Both mats were in excellent condition, despite the rough treatment the box took. The protective film was easily removed (no adhesive, just thick cling plastic). Since these are so thick AND they were shipped flat, there was no issue with having to unroll or flatten the mats. You could not roll this mat anyway- they are very nice rectangle sheets of thick, flat plexiglass. Some other reviews mentioned the mat tends to move during use, and I ran into a bit of that as well. I placed some 'grippy" material underneath and that helped tremendously (but not completely). I feel that is a minor issue compared to the other qualities (hard, flat, supportive, works on thicker carpet, etc). If it ever becomes and issue, I will use a set of "carpet keepers" to keep it totally motionless. Like I said, I am very happy with this purchase.
