Pad was supposed to 2 feet x 8 feet. Exactly. What I got was 8 feet long, but only 22-1/2 inches wide. Not really wide enough for my 30" runner.

The padding was for a wool rug and I was hoping the measurement was correct so I wouldn't have to trim anything. It fit exactly and gripped the floor very well. The material was very strong and I expect it will not be easy to accidentally tear the padding. The rug definitely doesn't move one bit so it's doing it's job! It also has no smell, as I am very sensitive to odors, especially man-made products.

I highly recommend this rug pad because it offers good padding for comfort but also provides more security that the rug won't slide around. We have vinyl floors which are very slippery and used this with a wool rug (also from Overstock) and we love them both. It makes a huge difference on a thin rug to have a rug pad. I recommend ordering a size down so you don't have to trim it and it's easier to place. For example, our rug is 9x12 but this pad is 10x12 and it's perfect.

I have had bad experiences with latex rug pads leaving residue on laminate floors. Now that I had beautiful hickory floors in my home, I did not want to take a chance on anything like that happening again. This is made out of PVC and fits perfectly under the rug that I purchased at the same time. Very pleased with the purchase, and I think it's going to last without melting into my floors!

We needed a rug pad to place under a new room-sized rug. We wanted something that could easily be trimmed (if necessary), would not add bulk but would have a slight bit of cushion, and would hold the rug in place. This fit all of our needs perfectly and, after nearly 4 years of use, it's just as good as the day we put it down.

I've purchased many carpet pads over the years to keep area rugs in place. This product out performs them all by far. Not only does it keep the rug where it is supposed to be, but it adds very noticeable cushioning under it. Extremely happy with this purchase!

I'm very happy with this rug pad. It is reasonably priced and solves the problem of the small rugs slipping all over the smooth hardwood floors. So far, it does its job, but doesn't appear to stick to the floor too permanently as some other rug pads do. There is also a little plush feeling when you walk across the rug now. And best of all, our English setters no longer send the rug flying around the room when they tear around the house.

Works for small rugs, sticks, the typical inexpensive rug pad you can pick up anywhere. I did once buy a cheaper one than this in target and the quality was pretty poor so i'd upgrade to this.

So far, so good. The manufacturer of my new floor tile said this type of rug pad is the only type suitable for my tile. On a side note, I was very impressed with the packaging. The pad came neat folded in a large rectangle (like a huge sponge), wrapped only in a very heavy (and effective!) clear plastic. I loved NOT having a cantankerous box to have to dispose of. Very impressive.

Generally speaking it's a decent rug pad, it slides around a little but not horribly. I've also used rug tape and I must say I prefer it using the tape under rugs. But since I bought this pad for a round rug I'm not so sure how easily it'd be to tape it vs just using a pad. So, I'll probably just stick to the pad for this particular rug.

This rug pad measures 1/8" thick, and is very sturdy and cushiony. It is easy to cut to make it smaller. Makes the rug feel very soft and easy to stand on. However, it absorbs liquids and mildews easily from a "spot-clean-up" on the rug above it.

this is a great quality rug pad. I bought it for under a bathroom runner and it has terrific cushioning!

I purchased the 3' pad for a 4' rug and it works perfectly. The rug is on tile and doesn't budge a bit...not even when the cat tries to turn it into a "magic carpet ride". He's disappointed but I'm happy. It gives a good bit of padding underfoot as well. Maybe cat can sleep on it instead.

Have a 8ft. rug in the kitchen. It is heavy and it was slipping. Bought this pad for the rug and it gave the rug a "cushion" feel plus it doesn't slip anymore. Great buy plus it is heavy enough so that when you want to wash the floor the rug pad lifts easily.

I was shopping for a rug pad for a rather small wool rug that kept slipping on our bamboo floors. This rug pad works well for us in this regard. I will say, though, that it does not provide any additional padding for the rug, so if that is important to you, you may want to look at one of the felted rug pads for sale.

I bought this to replace another rug pad that kept wrinkling under the rug. This one is a bit thicker, but it is not hemmed around the edges like it looks in the picture online so I was disappointed. Also, it is not completely non-slipping...only less so than the bare rug. This is obviously one of those products that needs to be seen and felt (in a bricks-and-mortar store rather than online) before purchasing. At least it wasn't expensive.

Hidden sweetly under the 2x8 new door runner, this soft well-made pad is making our entry from the pool safer. It keeps the runner from sliding on the hardwood floor & we hope it preserves the underweave of our new adored runner!!

I never thought I really needed a rug pad until I purchased a great rug and my kids pored everything on my rug. Then my rug stuck to my wood floors I had to do something. I will always have a rug pad with all rugs.

This is a thick rug pad -- I ended up returning it because I decided to go with a cowhide rug in our family room, so I didn't need it for the rectangular rug I had originally planned for. I think this would be very practical under a sisal or seagrass rug (which have a tendency to shed).

Thank you Overstock! This is exactly what I wanted. I’m so happy I’m always able to find great products at low prices. It’s literally a one stop shop. All of my items are always packaged right and arrives on time. I love my new dining room chairs!
