Mohawk Home 8' x 10' Non Slip Rug Pad Gripper 1/4 Thick Dual Surface Felt + Rubber Gripper - Safe for All Floors, Brown

I rarely leave reviews, even when I like a product. But this is worth it and hopefully can help others too. This mat is PERFECT under a Ruggable! I got an 8×10 ruggable in excellent condition second hand but could not rationalize spending the money for the branded mat underneath it. After researching, I didn't get much help about alternatives but decided to take a gamble anyway. And I'm so glad I did! This is a fraction of the cost and literally works perfectly. The felt is not soft, its super super grippy and velcro like. The ruggable sticks to it wonderfully and the rubber side is truly nonslip against my hardwood floors. We did have to trim it to size, about an inch on two sides. It does have a significant 'factory' smell right out of the package, but dissipated quickly. It's thick and cushy and feels so nice under foot and for the kids to sit/play on! If you're looking for an alternative to a Ruggable mat to use under and Ruggable top rug, GET THIS ONE!

I have had this rug pad for a couple months or so and am so thankful I made the purchase! It was very easy to “install” and didn’t take much time. I use it with my living room rug, which gets used by a family of three including a child and dogs. It adds much needed protection as well as grip. There is a huge difference in comfort from before we got the rug pad. The addition of the soft top as well as grippy bottom just makes me feel like my rug and my floors are both well protected and will have better longevity. We got the 1/4 inch thick and it seems like that is a nice width for our living room rug. I was worried that it wouldn’t feel comfortable but it really does. It brings the sides of the rug up a little bit, however, it has not been an issue at all. I think a thicker pad maybe would have brought it up too much.For the price, this is a great purchase! I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a reliable and comfortable rug pad.

I had purchased a 4x6 faux fur rug. It was wonderfully fuzzy, but had absolutely no padding, and the smooth backing was slippery as ice. I tried a different anti slip pad first, but the rug kept slipping off the pad. This pad solves all the problems. It is exactly 4 x 6 feet. It is just shy of a half inch thick. ( I was going to get the 3/8 inch, but for the price, I decided to upgrade. I’m glad I did. It’s good padding, but I think anything less wouldn’t be adequate.) The 1/2 inch padding is thick enough to make it comfortable to sit or kneel on the floor. (Anyone can stand on these, but if old knees are comfortable, you know it’s good.)What’s really amazing is that—as advertised—the bottom surface holds fast to my laminate floor and the top surface holds the rug safely in place.The rug itself has uneven edges (it’s supposed to look like a fur rug) so I’m going to eventually trim the pad to more evenly match the rug. Previous reviews suggested that it is easy to trim. If I have any problems, I’ll update this review.Otherwise, I’ll say—especially from someone who had been shopping for a good pad for a while—this is an excellent non-slip pad and is excellent quality for the price.Edited later to add: Well, I came back to add an update, but I never actually posted this review. So, I’ll just add and post. Several weeks later and I’m still very happy with this pad. But I did want to add a note about trimming it. As mentioned above, the rug I have on top of the mat is not an exact 4x6. I needed to trim about an inch off the length and an inch off the width of the pad to make it fit underneath the rug perfectly. But it was not easy! I tried every kind of scissors I had in the house. A box cutter just shredded it. Finally, my guy came around with some industrial scissors (they looked like tin snips, but I don’t think that’s what they were) and his much stronger hands than mine, and he was able to make a nice, neat trim. With the right tool and the right user, the mat trims nicely with no fraying. I’m going to guess, when they show the picture of the mat being cut with regular scissors, it’d probably the thinner version and not the 1/2 inch.Still, very happy with this product!

Works well, was easy to trim and install. Good value for the price. I was in a hurry and needed to install it immediately….. I wish I had the time to let it ‘air out’ prior to installing. I think it’s possible that would have prevented my only complaint and my only reason for not giving 5 stars . It has a strong odor…… smells a bit like boiled eggs🥴. Now that my events have passed, I’m hoping to figure out a way to de-fumigate it. For now, burning candles in that room ‘tricks’ the nose. My advice to future purchasers would be to open it up and let it air out a couple of days before stifling the smell with your rug. Other than that, it feels very cushy and of good quality.

High quality think materials, made in USA! Adds a wonderful cushion to any rug, and it truly holds it in place!! NO slip backing, it’s simply a must for any rug!
