About this product
The Argos Home Chair Mat protects your carpet from wear and tear caused by office chair wheels and feet. It provides enough space to move around, roll between tasks, and keep your flooring in good condition. The PVC material handles daily use well, while a textured gripper back stays put on carpet and reduces slipping. It's also useful for catching spills if you're working with a drink nearby. The mat suits home offices where you want practical floor protection without disrupting your room's look.
The mat measures 120cm by 90cm and can be trimmed to fit your workspace. It wipes clean after spills or vacuums lightly when needed. The gripper backing holds it securely on carpeted floors during regular chair movement. Simple to place and adjust, it's a straightforward way to extend the life of your carpet beneath your desk.

Customers Say
The chair mat protects carpets well, offering smooth chair movement and good size. It lies flat and grips carpet, but some users report dents, mat movement, and durability issues on thick carpets.

Does the job
The mat is not fully tough; marks are left in the mat from chair wheels. However, the marks disappear after use. I beliive it does the job it is designed to do adequately. If you order, double check you have the right mat (hard floor or carpet) as the photos on the website are misleading. Check the text.description.

Very sturdy, doesn’t move
I bought this last week to put over my new carpet . It’s very sturdy and doesn’t move or curl up . The spikes underneath stop it from moving , but they don’t damage the carpet and it stops the wheels of my office chair damaging the carpet . Good buy !

Absolutely

Good, but for low pile carpet
I bought this 6 months ago, although if you have a thicker pile carpet and underlay, expect to need it replacing after 6 months due to it cracking under the weight of the chair and castors. On a positive note, chair moves across it nicely, it is a good size and protects the carpet well

Just what I needed
This replaced a piece of plywood over the carpet and is just what I needed and the price was competitive.

Flat packed carpet protector
Bought this to protect my new carpet in my office area, great advantage that it was packed flat and was easy to install, had tried one from another vendor but it was impossible to unroll to use, so this was perfect 👌
J, 65 or over
Good quality
I got to protect my carpet from desk chair and it had worked a treat, it is strong enough to take the weight of chair and doesnt leave any marks on carpet
Chez7, 45 - 54
Great carpet protector
Had this a few weeks and it is certainly a good product. Right size, offers carpet protection, competitive price and it came flat packed. Grips the carpet and because it was flat packed it was easy to fit.

Hi Emma,
Argos Home Chair Mat 869/4786
The supplier has advised the following:
"It may be difficult to cut this product with scissors or a Stanley knife, particularly if it is a gripper backed version for carpets. I would suggest a junior saw/hack saw option if scissors don’t work."
Thank you for using Q&A
Hi JRPC,

Thank you for using Q&A
Hello SarahO,
Our supplier has advised that the Argos Home Chair Mat is not recommended for use with underfloor heating. PVC can soften or warp when exposed to constant heat, and this may lead to discolouration, odours, or the mat wearing out more quickly. It can also act as an insulator, preventing heat from transferring efficiently into the room. In some cases, prolonged heat exposure can even cause the mat to stick to the floor or damage the flooring beneath it.
For underfloor heating, it’s best to choose a mat that is specifically labelled as heat-resistant or suitable for use with heated floors.
Thank you for using Q&A

Hello Chris,

Not thick at all bur hard enough for a roller chair. The delivery comes in a flat box. So no uncomfortable irrritating straightening.
Hello Jilly,

Hello Jen,

This can be used on a woollen carpet.
We have never had an issues with mould as there is not an air tight seal around the mat.
Thank you for using Q&A.
Hello Lolly,
The supplier has advised the following for the Chair Mat:
The supplier advises that it may not be suitable, saying: "We would recommend the other floor mat which is the hard floor version which is 916/7171, this would be better for vinyl floor, as the carpet floor mat would maybe leave some indentations in the vinyl."
For more info on the product they suggest, the Hard Floors Chair Mat cat no: 916/7171, please check out this link here:

I would say this cannot be cut as it is really sturdy. Scissors would definitely not cut it.
