I bought this pad for my new area rug, about 3 weeks ago. I replaced an older rug and under that, I had the rubber type pad and it was always sooooo hard. Well, I found this one from Overstock.com and with reading the reviews, decided to try it out. I LOVE IT!!! It makes a world of difference........it is so much softer than before and is so much more comfortable to lay on the floor now. I would recommend this pad to everyone. I went with the "Durable" due to one of the other reviewer's comments and am glad I did. I also thought it was at a fair price. My suggestion to some people would be, "if you want it to feel really, really soft, just like wall to wall carpet, then that is what you need to put down.....not an area rug!" This pad is for an area rug and you will not get that deep sinking feeling when you step on it, but it is soft and if you have had one of the other area rug pads, you will be very glad you bought this one!!!

This rug pad does the job. I'll admit, I was surprised as I thought it might be thicker, but it definitely adds softness under an area rug also purchased from Overstock. I debated actually needing/getting the rug pad fpr underneath the rug and I'm so glad I did. The rug is soft to walk on sit on, etc. The pad is true to size. Like other reviewers, it is a little larger than 8x10 and neededto be cut down slightly, not a big deal. As yes, the pad isn't 'pretty', but heck, it's going under a rug and no one sees it!! Great grip power too.

This pad arrived before the rug we ordered, and it was HEAVY to carry into the house. I was impressed by how solid it seems, and it does not slide around on the floor at all. We received the rug, which is a little smaller than the pad, so I cut it down a few inches with a sharp utility knife. It cut smoothly, and there are no uneven edges from the cutting. I can crawl on my hands and knees with our dogs on this without any discomfort to my knees. As our rug is pretty thin, this says something about the pad. I would buy it again.

We purchased this pad to go under an Overstock rug. The pad was much thinner than we expected and provided some, but minimal padding. For another rug we tried the "superior" series and that is every so slightly thicker (maybe 1 mm), but provides slightly more cushion. If I were to buy a pad again I would purchase the "superior" series over the "durable" series.

• Would you recommend this to a friend? No

This is just as good quality as the superior, can not beat the price either, I will have to cut it a little, I bought a 8*10 carpet and then the 8*10 pad, turns out the pad was a bit wider and longer which is unusual, but works for me! I just love the added comfort to my stained concrete floor.

We purchased this pad to go under a rug we purchased the same time. This pad is nice and thick, and seems sturdy, but it is not cut straight. Under the rug it is about 2 inches out of square. We thought it might be the rug, but my brother measured it, and its the pad that is wonky. We trimmed it on one end the best we could and it will work for our purposes. I won't buy another one.

I purchased two durable pads, and 8X10 and 6X9. Both pads were delivered at the same time, but one was the wrong size. Since there was no size on the paper which could be viewed through the plastic, the only what to find out was to unpack and unroll the pad. The pad measured 6X6. Returning the pad caused much inconvenience and I had to wait for the pad I ordered to be delivered.

An earlier review for this product really helped me make my selection between the different types of rug pads available on this site. The rug pad that I received was also the savafieh brand. It is heavyweight and doesn't seem that cushiony on its own but it makes the 8x10 wool carpet that I placed on top of it feel more plush. I did have to trim a few inches off of one side (the long side) and it was thick enough to make the cutting a challenge. Each side of the rug pad has a different surface, I am using it on top of a wood floor, a paper came with the pad describing which side should face down depending if you use it on a solid or carpeted surface. We do have some furniture anchoring the pad and rug but before we put the furniture on top it did not seem like the pad would slip or move. When comparison shopping I was surprised to see how much the thin plastic mesh rug pads cost, I am happy with the quality and value of this product and would recommend it to anyone.

Very happy with this pad. I can't say if it's non-slip -- we have it under a heavy carpet so it's unlikely to slip anyway. I think it adds just the right amount of cushion to a mid-weight area rug, and we've not noticed any negative affect on the wood floors. Perfect for protecting the floor and making the carpet feel more luxurious.

Can find very similar product less expensive at other stores. Thick, works well under rug. Just not that much better than must less expensive pads in local discount retail stores

I order from Overstock almost 2 times a week. But this was the first time I have ordered carpet and padding. When I unrolled the under pad I found the quality ok I should have paid more and gotten one that was slightly better.It does what I need it too for a spare room that won't get used a lot but would not have kept it for a any other room in the house.

I was very pleased with the quality and appearance of this rug pad. It immediately made a difference in the appearance of my carpet giving support and protection from wear. The price was great and I received it promptly. I would definitely recommend this rug pad.

I wasn't quite sure how good this rug pad would be. Wow, was I pleasantly surprised. My rug feels so cushy and deep. I'm back to order a smaller one for my office.

I've used this pad for 2 years now and it's still going strong. Well worth the investment!

It works great under my rug, keeps it in place. I had to do some trimming to make it fit the size of the rug.

This padding is very good quality. I wish that they would make them just a tad smaller than the rugs available. It was difficult to cut it down to size.

So let me just say that we like this rug pad so much that we ordered two more after receiving the first one. Normally, there's really nothing to be excited about when it comes to a rug pad that is purely functional and out of sight. But as soon as I laid the first pad under the rug, I was amazed at how cushy and comfortable the rug felt under our feet. The quality of this rug pad is great. It's thicker than any pad we've ever purchased in stores and it actually stays in place. There's no slipping around whatsoever. We've had the first one for over 6 months and it's just as good as the day we laid it down - and that's saying a lot for the high traffic area it is in and the fact that we have two very energetic 80 pound dogs. I've now purchased this rug pad for all the large rugs throughout our house and it makes a world of difference. The old hardwood floors are better protected from wear and tear and our feet are so much happier.

I purchased this pad to protect the hardwood in my living room and give my rug more plushness and depth. I am very satisfied with this purchase - The pad keeps the rug from moving, protects the hardwood floor, and gives and nice extra depth between the rug and the wood that helps increase the comfort under foot and warmth of the rug. It is very heavy, I brought it in and unrolled it by myself, but it would be easier with two people. Also, one side was too wide and needed to be trimmed so it didn't show outside the rug. But it was exactly what I was hoping for to put in between my medium pile rug and my hardwood floors. I would purchase again for another room!
