HON Office Chair Mat for Carpet, Computer Desk Chair Mat for Carpeted Floors, Easy Glide in Office or Home with Extended Lip (36” x 48”)

At first, it’s very stiff and needs a bit of effort to roll out. Let it relax 48 hrs and put weight on it and it will relax enough to use. Once in use, it works as designed.

I've been using these mats for YEARS! They last a fantastically long time, and it takes a lot of pressure to wear it down. Whatever plastic they're using for these is sturdy stuff. It came wrapped up in a slender box, and the instructions say to make sure you have another pair of hands to help you unwrap it. The mat is crazy heavy when its rolled up and incredibly difficult to unroll by yourself. I do highly recommend getting someone else to help, especially since it likes to re-roll if there's nothing holding it down. Speaking of which, you'll need some heavy books (or furniture) to keep the ends from rolling up. But after a day or two under heavy weight, it stays in place. It's easy to keep clean and camouflages very well with the environment since it's clear plastic. It's also a great size to fit into most places! I can't recommend this product enough!

It's a good mat, but after 4 years it has developed cracks where the wheels of my chair typically sit.

The Hon name stands for quality but this mat is no different from the one it replaced that was considerably less expensive. It was also very difficult to unroll. After following the instructions to leave in a warm room for 24 hours, it still took two people to flatten it enough to lay it down and it’s still not fully flat after 48 hours.

I purchased this in 2019 and just now needing to replace! It has worked well for being on carpet under my son’s desk. He spends lots of time there playing video games and moving back and forth! This may did crack and break in the center where he moves the most, desk chair has wheels! I am reordering because this may seemed to last longer than any others in this process range has lasted

While this mat will likely protect your carpet in the long-run, the other aspects of this made me wish I would have gone with another brand. First, as most mentioned, getting this to lay flat is hard. The packaging size makes it so the mat needs to be tightly rolled, which is further exacerbated by the cold weather. I have had 50lb weights on it for two days, and it is still curling. Im sure this will go away after some time, but holy cow is this unnecessarily annoying. However, for me, the biggest con of this product is the size. While it boasts about having an extended size for your feet, do you really need protection from the chair there? The mat is EXTREMELY small for what I would think a product like this should be. If you literally never roll around in your chair, this will be okay, but otherwise, any small roll left/right/back will have your chair rolling off the mat onto the carpet, which then snags on the mat because its likely not fully flat as previously discussed. Lastly, a minor issue is that this mat just seems like very thin plastic. After sitting in the same position for ~30 seconds, there are massive divots in the mat and my carpet (which is low pile, so it shouldnt imprint into as much as it is) which make moving harder. All in all, if this product was $20 or $30 I would just be upset and move on. However, for approx $50, these issues should not be happening. I will be asking for a refund on this product and finding a bigger, sturdier one elsewhere.

How frail and restless is the life of toil — this daily dance of the chair across the dim plains of the carpet, its wheels catching like thoughts upon regrets! Yet upon that weary battlefield now lies a savior: the HON Office Chair Mat, a clear, glimmering shield of civility stretched beneath the weight of industry. Its surface — smooth as glass, yet resolute as the frozen tarns of winter — invites motion untroubled by friction or fate. Beneath the chair’s ceaseless revolutions, the mat remains steadfast, uncomplaining; its transparency reveals the woven darkness of the carpet below, yet never succumbs to it. It is the silent companion of endurance — the mute witness to midnight labors and unspoken frustrations. The extended lip, reaching out like a hesitant hand beneath the desk’s shadow, protects that hidden expanse where the human form bends most humbly to its work. One might call it a gesture of grace — the mat offering itself to guard even the unseen, the disregarded corners of existence. In its unassuming rectangle lies a strange poetry: the triumph of order over wear, of clarity over the slow erosion of tread and time. It speaks not loudly, but with the quiet dignity of something that serves, that suffers, and that endures. Thus the HON Chair Mat, plain though it seems, becomes a symbol of steadfastness — the invisible foundation upon which weary dreamers roll toward their endless tasks.

It takes a while for it to lay flat.

Me gusta el tapete, tamaño perfecto, pero hay una pequeña cosa que es un poco molesta. Tengo una alfombra de pelo corto en el escritorio de mi computadora y las púas en la parte inferior de la alfombra que la mantienen en su lugar sobre la alfombra son demasiado largas y evitan que la alfombra quede plana sobre la alfombra. Entonces, cuando ha estado sentado un rato, las ruedas giratorias de su silla se atascan en la hendidura. Un pequeño problema extraño, pero en general me gusta el producto y sin duda lo recomendaría. ¿Tal vez necesito comprar una alfombra con pelos más profundos?

Al Principio se queda muy enrollado y deforme… le puse cosas encima para que se aplanara más y medio sirvió, supongo que con el tiempo. Buen producto. Buen grosso y calidad. Es para alfombra porque tiene los picos abajo para fijarse.

se me hace muy reducido

Excelente producto, excelente calidad, instructiones claras y precisas en como iniciar el uso del producto para evitar daños..
