Grip-It Non-Slip Pad for Rugs Over Carpet, 6 by 9-Feet

Excellent! I tolerated slipping, moving rugs on carpet for years. I used the common rug gripper, didn't know what else to do; you know the ones that we all use with rugs on any floor to keep them in place and prevent color transfer. As you know, these don't work very well on carpeted floors. Got various sizes of these to replace all the hall runners, bathroom and kitchen rugs, too. Absolutely phenomenal! No movement on most after 4 weeks so far. Only one has minor movement. The one hall runner on carpet in front of the laundry room shifts a tiny bit around the edges. But 99% improved. The real deal. Have these always been available to purchase? Oh...and no sticky reisidue on carpets - I was concerned about that, too. Great product. Highly recommend.

We have a flame retardant rug on the carpet in front of the Franklin Stove that would not stay in place. The rug kept moving away from the stove as soon as someone stepped and when putting another log in the stove. Just started using the Rug-on-Carpet pad but so far it works GREAT!! I don't know how long it will continue to work but so far we are extremely pleased.

I have a 5x7 area rug over carpeting. That rug slides more than a fat kid going down a slide. I adjusted it almost daily.This worked for me. My area rug hasn't budged since I put this under it and I couldn't be happier.It doesn't do a good job of keeping the corners down though. My dog kicks up one corner daily. But, if that's my only problem then I'm good.Oddly this pad doesn't come with instructions. Sure, it seems obvious but moving it around after you realize that you've messed up isn't all that easy. Here's what I did:Put your rug down where you want it.Tape the corners. I used painter's tape.Roll up your carpet.Lay this pad down inside of the tape. The plastic covered side should be up.Don't worry if the pad is too big.Smooth it out.Remove the plastic covering the pad.Position one side of your rug inside of the tape.Roll the rug out; it should go where you wanted it because you lined it up.Walk over the rug to secure it.If necessary trim any excess pad. I used common scissors.I've seen some reviews that said it didn't work. I suspect it has to do with either the texture of the rug backing or the carpeting. My area rug has a rough underside. The carpeting is low pile. Hope that helps.

I cut this Grip-It product 1 inch smaller than my rug runner on all sides and then applied it to the runner. My first impression was "This isn't very sticky". We had a hard time keeping it in place until we could lay down the runner and walk on it to get the best adhesion.After several days of moderate foot traffic the rug runner shifted about 1" off the Grip-It as shown in the photo. This means a total of 2" of movement including the original 1" margin I left when installing it. Basically, this stuff didn't work at all for us. It's possible that it just didn't work on our new runner due to some coating or residue from manufacturing but I consider our runner backing to be pretty conventional.I believe the Grip-It product simply had poor adhesion which surprised me considering the large amount of surface area involved.

This worked perfectly for me under a large area rug over carpet. I laid it down under part of the couch and then the rest is open. I made sure it was perfectly flat and then laid the area rug back down. It was very easy to cut just by running the scissors along the edge which made trimming it super easy.

This non-slip pad is perfection. It does exactly what it was designed to do. I can't say enough good things about it. If you're on the fence take the plunge. You won't be disappointed.Though there were no instruction on how to use it or deploy it, with a bit of thinking you'll figure it out. Don't peel the backing off the pad until you get it in place.I have an oriental rug over carpet in my livingroom. The rug was always slowly moving across the carpet and bunching up on my couch. I have a chair on one corner that I thought would hold the rug in place, but that never worked. I would have to move the chair and drag the rug back into place every week. Now that this pad is in place the rug hasn't move at all. It stayed exactly where I put it. I can vacuum the rug with no issues and haven't had to adjust it once since using this pad. This is one of the best purchases I've made in a long time.Here is how I suggest you set it up:Vacuum the area onto which you're going to put the pad, and vacuum the bottom of the rug you're going to use it to hold in place.Both side of the pad are sticky, but only one side has a backing to peel off as the other side is folded onto itself for protection. I put the pad down onto rug I wanted it to hold in place with the protected side down. This allowed me to trim it with heavy duty scissors on two sides to make it just a bit smaller than the rug.Once that was done I rolled up the rug, put the pad down on the livingroom carpet with the unprotected side down while leaving the backing on the other side. This allowed me to smooth out the pad and help remove some of the creases created by it being folded to fit into the packaging.I then unrolled the rug back onto pad. This allowed me to make sure the pad was completely hidden by the rug. It also allowed me to walk over the rug to get the pad to stick to the carpet. I kept checking the pad to make sure it was smooth. If it wasn't I unpeeled the backing, pulled the pad from the edge, and then allowed the backing to fall back on it so I could keep adjusting both the pad and run.Once everything was where I wanted it, I rolled the rug up to one end, then with it still rolled up, rolled it just far enough towards the center of the pad to start peeling the backing off the top of the pad. Once about a quarter of the backing was peeled away I rolled the rug back to the peeled edge. I knelt on the edge of the rug that was now being stuck to the top of the pad and kept peeling the backing off the top of the pad while unrolling the rug. I did this all the way across the pad. This worked great and the rug hasn't moved since.

After getting the pad under the area rug it didn’t move at all, very satisfied with it

Simple, it works.

This underpaid works quite well for my area rug I wanted to lay on top of the wall to wall carpet in the living room seems to hold both the area rug in place very well, we did have to get tape to hold down the edges as well. With this done, the carpet stays in place, no shifting, no curling of the edges. This underpaid was also a great price! I’m very happy with this purchase.

Keeping rug flat. Does as advertised.More instructions would be good.

Works very well. Used it for my 9x12 rug on top of wall to wall carpeting and in the kids rooms with smaller 3x3 sports shaped rugs on top of wall to wall carpeting. I find if you apply once and set in the proper place and leave alone - then it will give you the best results. If you keep adjusting placement you will lose the tackiness on the back to keep your rug in place.
