Detailed Review

The Melising pick is the thickest of the five at 0.18 in, and the TPR adsorption grip stays put without curling. The fabric surface rolls quietly and muffles caster noise for late-night work.

The listing warns to peel the bottom PE protective film before use and notes it is not for carpets. No warranty term is stated.

A 36x48 PVC chair mat with anti-slip bottom, brown square.

Detailed Review

The RccugmatS pick pairs a non-slip bottom with a smooth rolling surface, and the PVC resists water, oil and aging. The over-locking edge lets the chair slide on smoothly.

The brown square finish suits wood floors, and the 0.16 in thickness resists dents. No warranty term is stated.

A 36x47 inch PVC mat for hardwood floors; not recommended for carpet.

Pros

  • Anti-slip frosted surface
  • 36x47 in coverage
  • Easy to clean
  • Suits many hard floors

Cons

  • Not recommended for carpet
  • Wrong keyword fit
  • No thickness stated
  • No warranty stated
Detailed Review

The SHAREWIN is the outlier: its listing is titled for hardwood floors and states it is not recommended for carpet. The frosted PVC surface gives an anti-slip grip for chair rolling on hardwood, vinyl, laminate, stone, tile and concrete.

It does not belong on carpet, so it ranks last for this keyword. For hard floors it is the value pick.

Its Office Score of 9.4/10 comes from performance 27/35, build 19/25, value 20/25, safety 0/10 and warranty 0/5: 66 of 100 points, placed on our 9.2 to 9.8 scale.
