Okay, I'm not a skinny dude but don't really think of myself as being morbidly obese, either. But I haven't had a chairmat that has lasted me more than a year. They always get shredded up. I'm wondering if anyone has a solid chairmat that won't get torn up, and where you got it from.

Quality chairmat?

Staples. Office depot only sells their own rebranded crap. Get a durable one that costs more than $25 regular price.

I bought a premium 36 x 48 from American Floor Mats.
No problems for the past year.

I just got mine at staples. You did not specify if you have carpet or hardwood though as I suspect that would make a difference.
I personally have hardwood so I just have a flat plastic one. It's pretty thick/stiff plastic and has held up quite well for about 3 years. Really saves on the floor.
The mat I have is Rubbermaid I think.
As others have said, you are probably going to get what you pay for. A $20 mat probably won't last as long as a $50-$60 mat.

Oh yah, mine is rubbermaid as well, for thick carpets. I paid around $75 I think... had it for a few years already. It started cracking a few months ago, but not as bad as the cheaper ones.
