When you have a delicate floor, such as parquet or flooring , it is very easy for PC chairs to end up damaging the floor because even though they have soft wheels, they end up with attached dirt that scratches the floor. To avoid it, and to keep it in line with the gaming ecosystem of your PC, below we are going to recommend the best gaming mats specifically designed for the floor , and thus prevent the chair from damaging it.
It is worth mentioning the fact that in this list we are going to mention only gaming mats, that is, we know that there are other cheaper and more transparent ones, but those are more oriented to offices and to go unnoticed. And well, you know that all the “gaming” material is not precisely designed to go unnoticed but rather the opposite, right? With that said, let’s go there.
Floorpad
Floorpad is a brand that is dedicated entirely to manufacturing these types of products, and for this reason instead of wearing one of the specific models (for example, the one in the image above is the Ninja Zone), we mention the manufacturer because they have a catalog very wide and they all have the same characteristics but what changes is the design, so it will be difficult for you to not find any that you like.
These gaming mats are made of high-quality fabric, non-stick material at the base and with stitched edges for durability and to provide a “step” and to keep the chair out of the area easily. They are 120 x 120 centimeters in size and 4 mm thick, with the addition that it can be washed in the washing machine (at 30ºC or less, of course).
We will tell you something about these Floorpad rugs: they are expensive, but they are the best.
Woxter Stinger
The well-known Woxter brand also has its own designs of gaming mats for the floor, and the one you can see above has a World of Warcraft theme but is just one example of the many models they have. In this case, its shape is circular and they are 120 cm in diameter, they are made of microfiber and they are also 4 mm thick, although they do not have sewn edges.
Trust GXT 715
This Trust Gaming mouse pad is rectangular rather than circular or octagonal like the previous ones, but it is actually smaller because it measures 99 x 120 centimeters, although it is also 4 mm thick. This mat does not have the stitched edges but is harder than the previous ones to better resist the passage of time, and according to the manufacturer it still allows you to move the chair without difficulty.
In addition, in this case the mat is not washable because it is waterproof, which means that if we want to clean it we can simply do it with a damp cloth, which we actually consider an advantage.
Drift Gaming
The manufacturer Drift, in addition to having some excellent chairs in its catalog also has accessories for them such as this gaming mat to protect the floor. Of course, its hexagonal shape is smaller than the previous ones and it only measures 88 x 100 centimeters with 3 mm thickness. In this case the edges are not sewn either, but it has a non-slip base and is resistant to liquid spillage. It is also one of the cheapest we can find.
ThunderX3 TGM20
This model that the manufacturer ThunderX3 proposes stands out for being the thickest and largest of all, with 5 mm thickness and dimensions of 100 x 150 centimeters. Unlike the previous ones, its surface is not made with textured micro fiber but with vinyl, so it is also water resistant but even so, it is washable if you want to give it a good cleaning.
Docamor
We finish the list of the best gaming mats to protect the floor with this other manufacturer, Docamor, which is also dedicated to this and has numerous different models in its catalog. In this case, the mats are hexagonal in shape and measure 120 x 120 centimeters 4mm thick, although the edges are not sewn. They are washable at 30 degrees, just like the others.
