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
Durable, flat-packed chair mat protects carpets well and allows smooth chair movement. Some users note dents from chair wheels and occasional mat shifting on thick carpets.

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.

Excellent
We now have two of these and they work very well on medium pile carpet - tthey are quite thick, rigid plastic with small spikes on one side and have proven durable and effective. I am not light, but my chair wheels now move smoothly instead of sticking, and the new carpet has remained undented, although the protector itself has acquired some slight dents. I've moved the one we've had for 6 months a couple of times to fix its creep in the direction you move the chair most, but otherwise they are maintenance-free Very pleased with them.

Good product
Got this because carpet under my desk chair starting to ruck slightly. Wish I'd got one earlier because it has completely stopped this from happening. It doesn't slide around because of the bobbles underneath. Also slim enough that the corner of it easily passes under the box room door.

As described
Accurate description. Large packaging. Useful item that will save wear on my carpet and also allows better wheel movement than directly on carpet.

Excellent value
Proving just as good as more expensive versions out there. Protecting new carpet very well from wheeled desk chair wear without moving itself. Also, and this a big plus, was not rolled or folded so entirely smooth and flat from the outset.

Great for protecting carpets
I bought this a few weeks ago as we got new carpets in our boys bedrooms. It has been brilliant to protect the carpet and for eas of use with the computer chairs, the little spikes on the bottom kept the mat firmly in place absolutely great buy. We are getting another one for our office once that has been carpeted too.

Mat is too soft
too soft - the wheels of my hinomi chair are denting the mat and carpet. I'm 72kg so would not expect this.

Very disappointed
Bought this before and it's been fine but when I bought another one recently, the first one arrived cracked due to poor packaging and handling in delivery, and the second one is intact but riddled with ridges/grooves from front to back all the way across, and my chair still manages to make indentations after only a few hours of use. Returning and looking elsewhere

Hi JRPC,
Argos Home Chair Mat 869/4786
This mat is 3mm thick. The supplier has advised:
"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
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

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,

We have never had an issues with mould as there is not an air tight seal around the mat.

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.

Hi KHK,
No, the mat does not feature bevelled edges.
Thanks for using Q&A :)
no it doesn't. Also it moves about on the carpet a bit - I have to keep relocating it.
Flat edges but mat isn't that thick that it causes any issues
Not as such, but matt is not that thick (I do get up off chair to make rolling on easier). One thing though, in time is does discolor (sun light) and turn brittle (as in small cracks). However - I would not use an office chair on carpet/wooden floors without one. Before you order a similar one off the internet - most come "folded" which is a real nightmare (cannot remove the folds)! Argos one came rolled-up.
