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.
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.
Pad is exactly has described, and does what it needs to be doing.
Poor quality.... Should hardly be called "padding"... It is paper thin and made no difference in floor comfort..... I paid way too much.
The carpet rug pad does not slip and keeps the 8' x 10' rug in place and it looks good!
The padding was bigger than the size carpet that I ordered. I had to cut to fit. Not at all what I expected.
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.
