I have just been given a computer chair mat and I was not initially convinced that it would really make that much difference. I had never considered using one before because I was not sure what benefits they would have but because I was given one I decided that I would give it a try. It took quite a bit of getting used to, I suppose having never had a chair mat before I was not used to how it felt. I thought that it would be a nuisance but it was not, it was just a bit odd. However, it did not take me long to get used to it and now I wish that I had got one a long time ago. It is hard to describe how it is good really because it doesn’t make a hugely significant difference but it does make things easier somehow. I guess it is just a case of trying out some chair mats and seeing what you think or buying one for yourself and having a go. You may find that it makes a big difference, like I did and if you get a good one, it is unlikely that you will regret your purchase.
