I previously bought a large Zuniga rug from Wayfair, but I needed a smaller version for my desk and that brand did not have one, which led to me purchasing the red Jiang 3' round rug to serve as a chair mat. It is a *true* red, which is exactly what I wanted -- not too bright (like a red-orange), and not too dark (like a burgundy). It shed just a little when I first unwrapped it, but since vacuuming it I haven't had any issues. It's not very thick, but it is soft and comfortable to walk on barefoot, and my chair rolls around on it just fine. As an added bonus, even though I bought two rugs from two different brands, the red color and the texture are the same.
