Clear Rectangle Chair Mat 46 x 60 in for Low/Medium Pile - Office

In this review the Dimex 46 x 60 in clear rectangle chair mat is judged as a practical floor protector for offices with low to medium pile carpet. The bottom line: it is best for people who need a large, unobtrusive mat that lets chairs roll and protects carpet under heavy executive chairs and L or U shaped desks. The mat stands out for its industry leading clarity that lets it fade into most floors and for a cleated backing that grips carpet up to 3/8 in thick, although buyers should note mixed feedback on long term durability from some users.

Key Features

• Large coverage: The 46 x 60 in size provides ample room for large executive chairs and multi-position work areas so you can roll without leaving the mat.
• Smooth top surface: A low-friction top allows for easier chair movement across the mat and helps reduce wear on chair casters.
• Cleated backing: Designed to grip carpet up to 3/8 in thick so the mat stays in place on low to medium pile surfaces.
• Industry leading clarity: The clear construction blends with the floor so the mat is visually unobtrusive in an office environment.
• Sustainably sourced: Made from recycled materials, the mat offers an eco-conscious choice without changing performance.
• One year limited warranty: The mat is backed for one year against defects in material and workmanship, limited to replacement coverage.

Who It's For

The Dimex 46 x 60 in mat is a good fit for office workers, home offices, and executive suites that have low to medium pile carpet such as berber, twist, velour or plush and need a large protected area for rolling chairs. It is especially useful for desks with L or U layouts where a wider cleared area is required.

Those who should look elsewhere include users with hard floors (this mat is not recommended for hard surfaces) and people seeking extra-thick or ultra heavy-duty vinyl if they have repeatedly reported cracking under very heavy continual loads; some customer reports indicate variable longevity and softness.
