Review: Look no further ! - I shopped and shopped and read many reviews before settling on this one ! It did take a good week for it to be completely flat but since then I have had no issues ! My Roomba vacuum has no problem going all over it ! It has help up perfectly ! A super easy to clean and fits perfectly ! Glad I went with this one by my sliding door ! Review: Lightweight and easy to use - I bought this to line my mobility scooter carrier floor so I wouldn’t get road spatter on my scooter. This was the right size for my carrier, easy to insert and tie down. I did face a challenge when I rolled the scooter up the ramp because this wanted to move forward with the scooter. I’m going to look into bolting it in place instead of using ratchet straps. Because it’s thin it may tear from the bolt holes, but worth a try. ## Features - High spikes that sink into the carpet - Lays flat and stays in place - Thick material - Spill resistant and wipes clean with damp cloth - Great carpet protection ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B018J288RM | | Back Material Type | Vinyl | | Best Sellers Rank | #82,518 in Home & Kitchen ( See Top 100 in Home & Kitchen ) #238 in Runner Rugs | | Brand | Sweet Home Stores | | Color | Clear | | Construction Type | Machine Made | | Customer Reviews | 4.1 4.1 out of 5 stars (3,122) | | Date First Available | November 25, 2015 | | Embellishment | Spiked backing | | Indoor/Outdoor Usage | Indoor | | Is Discontinued By Manufacturer | No | | Is Stain Resistant | No | | Item Thickness | 0.01 Inches | | Item Weight | 2 pounds | | Item model number | CP2606 | | Material | Vinyl | | Material Feature | Durable, Water Resistant, Easy to Clean | | Model Name | Floor Protector | | Number of Packs | 1 | | Number of Pieces | 1 | | Pattern | Solid | | Pile Height | Low Pile | | Product Care Instructions | Garden Hose, Hang Dry | | Product Dimensions | 72"L x 26"W | | Room Type | Conference Room, Entryway, Hallway, Home Office, Study Room | | Rug Form Type | Runner | | Shape | Rectangular | | Size | 2'2" x 6' (Rectangular) | | Special Feature | Non Slip, Waterproof | | Style | Heavy Duty | | Surface Recommendation | Hard Floor | | Theme | Carpet Protector | | UPC | 815449020591 | | Weave Type | Flat Woven | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Sweet Home Stores - **Item Weight:** 2 Pounds - **Material:** Vinyl - **Size:** 2'2" x 6' (Rectangular) - **Weave Type:** Flat Woven ## Images ![Sweet Home Stores Clear Plastic Runner Rug Carpet Protector Mat Ribbed Multi Grip High-spike (26x6) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91QfLDyWx8L.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Color, Size** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: Could this be used on stairs?** A: I would not recommend using the runner on stairs. It is not flexible enough. **Q: Is this firm like office chair mats or soft/flexible and crinkle/wrinkle when you walk over it? Thanks!** A: It is not firm at all. As I mentioned before in another answer, the nuns are also very small. While it does work and we still have it down, I’ve noticed that edges are curling with age. **Q: Can a door open over it? I have thin carpet and I want to put it in front of my bed room door way.** A: Depends on the amount of room you have under your door. **Q: So, does the smell go away in time?** A: Yes. It took a while, but the smell did go away. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Look no further ! *by T***Y on November 25, 2025* I shopped and shopped and read many reviews before settling on this one !

Not as "bad reviewers" describe. *by S***G on March 29, 2021* Im very happy with my purchase because i believe i got a good deal for the price. I bought this mat to use as a runner, across the carpeted room that leads to the outside. Im not sure why others are complaining so much about several things, which i have listed and explained below: 1) the smell: yes, it smells bad but ONLY if you're actually putting your nose right next to it. So, all the bad reviews that said it had a terrible chemical smell right out of the box are not true. I didnt smell anything, out of the box, so i decided to get real close to see what reviewers were complaining about. So, in other words, you wont notice the smell unless you're looking for it. 2) needs to be aired out: Because of these reviews I decided to leave it (rolled up but standing) in the garage for 3 days. I really don't think it needed to be aired out but I decided to take the safe route, on this one. I have small kids and didnt want to fill up the room with any smell. After the 3 days, I unrolled it and put it where i wanted it, i didnt have any problems with smell. None! Again, not sure why others are complaining saying it fills the room with a nasty smell. I think they might be way too sensitive because i have a pretty good nose, when it comes to smells, and i cant get a scent off of it. 3) doesn't lay flat: although i can see why some say this, i think they are being overly picky. Im a pretty picky person but as you can see on my pics, it lays pretty flat. Yes, it is not perfectly straight (because it came rolled) but it also doesnt cause a tripping hazard like others have mentioned. Maybe it would for those that have trouble walking. Look at the pic and you can see for yourself how it lays. I didnt have to do anything to it, but unroll it, either. It's laid pretty flat from the beginning (i.e. it hasnt been there for days/weeks/months). 4) the corners stick up: i had no trouble with the corners sticking up. Especially because the mat came rolled with the pokey-side in. So the corners lay flat, as well. Overall, i am very satisfied with my purchase. It does the job just fine. The only reason I give this mat a 4-star is because the spikes do not dig into my carpet, as much as I had hoped, so it does allow movement of the mat. I don't see this as a major negative but it is a bit inconvenient to have to move the mat back to where i want it. You can see the type of carpet I have, in pics. Its a thin carpet so it may do a better job of holding on to a thicker carpet/rug. Other than this I am happy that I didnt spend more money on a mat that wouldve given me the same performance as this one. ## Frequently Bought Together - Sweet Home Stores Clear Plastic Runner Rug Carpet Protector Mat Ribbed Multi Grip High-spike (26x6) - YYXLIFE Double Sided Removable Rug Tape - Carpet Adhesive for Hardwood Floors, 2 Inch x 10 Yards, White --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sk/products/22986297-sweet-home-stores-clear-plastic-runner-rug-carpet-protector-mat](https://www.desertcart.sk/products/22986297-sweet-home-stores-clear-plastic-runner-rug-carpet-protector-mat) --- *Product available on Desertcart Slovakia* *Store origin: SK* *Last updated: 2026-05-24*
