RUGPADUSASuper-Lock Natural - 3'x5' - 1/8" Thick - Natural Rubber - Gripping Open Weave Rug Pad - More Durable Than PVC Alternatives, Safe for All Floor Types

Highly recommend, provides nice cushion and the rug doesn’t move!

This rug pad exceeded my expectations. It was a little more expensive but worth the extra cost. Grips well on tile and hardwood. Recommend!

I purchased a round rug for my entryway, and the rug didn’t have a nonslip backing. I have never used a rug pad before, so I was nervous about how it would work, but I needed something to prevent the rug from slipping on my hardwood floor. This rug pad was delivered quickly, was a good value, and is easy to use. It didn’t require any trimming. I simply took it out of the box, unfolded it, placed it on the floor, and placed my rug on top of it. Done!! No slipping on the floor and the rug stays put on the pad. I would recommend.

This is my second purchase of a rug pad from this company. Being pleased with the first purchase, I acquired a second in order to keep the rugs from slipping on our hardwood floors. This was a prevalent problem as our grandchildren tend to scamper around the house. This rug pad helps keeps the rugs in place. It does not slow down the grandchildren!

UPDATE: I have been using these for almost 2 years now, and have not noticed any yellow of our Armstrong vinyl.Original Review: As many others have said, we were warned against using synthetic rubber on our Armstrong vinyl floors. For many years, I have had to search and search for throw rugs that did not have any of the white, fake rubber backing, which of course, are cheaper and come in greater selections. I recently replaced the throw rugs on our master bathroom, and boy-oh-boy, were the new ones slippery! I felt one of us was going to end up falling, for sure. So, I came to trusty Amazon and started looking. I know I searched for a safer alternative years ago and did not find any. This time, I came upon these. I order a large one to cut down to the correct sizes I need. The rugs are reversible ones: one side has close loops, the other side longer loops, almost a short shag. I was’t sure this would work since they don’t have that stiff off-white netting-type stuff on the back (sorry, don’t know what that’s called). I was very pleasantly pleased with the performance of these natural rubber rug pads—they work great! It is very, very easy to cut. I cut it about two inches smaller than the rugs, all around. It works so well that I came back to buy more for all the throw rugs in the house (7 more, total). It’s a little pricy, but worth it to know I don’t have to worry about a rug slipping out from under me. I did not notice any smell, unless you stick it right up to your nose, then it has a mild scent. Since it’s natural rubber, it is a lot safer for you than the synthetic backings, which contain VOC’s. I’ve only had them a few days, so I cannot personally guarantee they won’t cause any yellowing of the vinyl, but all my research showed that they should not. I’m curious to do an experiment and see how little I can use under a rug and have it still be effective, like small squares in each corner, or something. If that works out, I’ll update. Why didn’t I do this sooner?

Works perfectly for my wood floors. No damage to floors at all.

I recently purchased new outdoor mats for our front and back doors. They are made from nautical rope and their only disadvantage is that they do not stay in place unless a rug pad is used.I did my usual due diligence, checking various websites to see what rug pads are considered to be the most suitable and durable. The wirecutter website, which I have found to be a reliable place to get legitimate and detailed reviews, recommended this specific rug pad, so I ordered three of them. One for each of our outside mats.It was easy to trim them to the appropriate size, and they work perfectly with our nautical rope mats. They keep the mat from slipping and sliding away, and they don't add much height (or depth, however you look at it) to the overall height (or depth) of the mat.These pads are made with over 1lb of natural rubber per sq yard, are made in the USA, and come with a 10 year warranty. Note that the warranty is not mentioned here on Amazon. I obtained that information from the rugpadusa website directly.We've been using these for just a couple of months now, so I can't rate them on long term durability - but the 10 year warranty gives me some confidence that they will last.

The contractor who refinished my hardwood floor recommend a natural rubber non slip backing for my area rug. This one had great reviews, and I’m not disappointed. I believe the price is reasonable for natural rubber. It will more than pay for itself by saving me the cost of repairing damage that could be done to my hardwood floors from synthetic pads.
