Mohawk Home 5' x 7' Non Slip Grip Rug Pad 1/4 Thick Felt + Rubber Backing - Dual Surface Safe for All Floors

I absolutely love this! I use it in front of my golf simulator in the garage. It works wonderfully! I could not be happier. It is very thick and soft. It rolls up easily. Well worth the money and high quality!

Outstanding rug pad! I used the pad under a 9x12 carpet (purposely chose a larger size so I could put a runner right next to the larger rug). First, let me say that I managed to maneuver this huge rug pad by myself, just one short guy and a huge heavy rug pad! It wasn’t easy — because the thing actually does its job and grips to the floor, so moving it around was quite cumbersome— but it was at least possible with effort. Once I got it in place, I got my (Ruggable one-piece rug) on top of it pretty easily. I taped down the far edge of the carpet to the pad just to give it some stability while I dragged my sofa back into place on top of it. I fully expected that the whole system would shift while I moved the couch and I’d have to wrestle painfully to get it back into position, and then spend a long time taping the rest of the rug to the pad below to keep it from shifting. But no! — the Mohawk rug pad didn’t budge and it kept everything in place. I’m using the pad over wall to wall carpet and I have to say this is a brilliant rug pad for that setup. I was skeptical at first of the instructions of “felt side down (on the wall to wall carpet) and “rubber side up” (contacting the new area rug). But this rug pad is flawless for soft surface placement. I didn’t have to tape down any more of the rug past the initial one foot strip — it just doesn’t budge on the carpet beneath (the felt locks into fibers) and the rug on top doesn’t budge, being gripped by the rubber. I could not be more pleased. And btw, I didn’t notice an odor other than a faint whiff when I opened the package. I highly recommend this rug pad for any use but especially for over-carpet use.

I purchased one of those super thin washable rugs for my living room. Naturally it came tightly folded so it was quite wrinkled. After being downforce several days, most of the wrinkles released, but not all. Since it was so thin I decided to get a pad for underneath. This pad is great! We cut it so that it is 4 inches shorter than the rug on each side. That way the rug lays flat against the floor so no tripping hazard and the doors glide easily over it. While it was quite wrinkled, once the rug was down the wrinkles didn’t show. In fact, the remaining wrinkles in the rug don’t show with the pad underneath. Now my rug looks and feels better. Much softer under foot.

I purchased the quarter inch pad to go under my 9 x 6 area rug. It was larger than advertised and required me to cut off 3” on two sides. It was very easy to cut with just a pair of shears and it worked perfectly. The rug stays in place and is easy to install. No smell at all. I rate this a 7 out of 10

I don't usually write reviews, but as I believe this is a safety issue I felt it was my moral obligation to write it. I ordered several of these Mohawk Home Non-Slip Rug Pads during January and February of 2024. The odor is nauseating. I put them outside during the day to air them out but it didn't help at all. The disgusting smell began to increase throughout my house and I couldn't get the odor to go away. I woke up in the middle of the night and had to run into the bathroom feeling light-headed and nauseous. I reported this directly to Mohawk and I was told they recently had a "bad batch," and they believed the odor was most likely caused by contaminated dye that was added to the latex for color. The smell intensified, especially while my heat was on, so I had a service call with an HVAC/Duct company. He explained that the odor from the rug pads was blown throughout my house when the heat was on and then the return vent sucked up the air sending it back to my heating system which then circulated the horrific-smelling air throughout my entire house. He cleaned and deodorized the HVAC system which helped somewhat, but the smell lingers in my furniture, rugs, blankets, etc. I have been washing everything non-stop and have sprayed Febreze everywhere. I looked back through the Amazon reviews about these Mohawk rug pads and I have found many other people complaining about the dreadful stench, and this goes all the way back to 2020. So the reason given to me by Mohawk for the atrocious odor being caused by a "bad batch" that recently occurred is not only unacceptable but complete hogwash. I contacted the EPA as well as filed a complaint with the United States Consumer Product Safety Commission about this issue. It is well known that VOCs, Volatile Organic Compounds, are found in many products, including rug pads, and can lead to poor indoor air quality causing numerous issues including respiratory symptoms. VOCs can be carcinogenic to human beings. I have been nauseated, dizzy, and cannot get this sickening odor out of my house. I have tried using strong mouthwash, chewing peppermint gum, and drinking peppermint tea but I cannot get that horrific smell out of my nose or respiratory tract that has come from these disgusting Mohawk rug pads. I am grateful to Amazon for refunding my money for the four Mohawk Home Non-Slip Rug Pads, but I am concerned that nothing was done to resolve the real issue, the safety issue of these rug pads. I recommended to Amazon that they take the rug pads off of their site immediately and I am hopeful that they will. I recontacted Mohawk yesterday, March 18, 2024, via email, sending them the Amazon reviews with odor issues as far back as 2020 and the response I got was, "This was from 2020 and these people might have some kind of "allergy" that make them more sensitive to certain things." They have swept the rug pad odor issue under the rug. No pun intended. I am extremely dissatisfied with Mohawk and will never purchase anything from the company again.

I bought the 1/2 inch rug pad. It makes a big difference in the way my rug feels walking on it. The pad provides a very nice cushion since my rug is very thin. I ordered the 9 x 13 size pad however it is few inches larger than that. A lot of the reviews that I saw before I ordered said it is very hard to cut, which is true as you cannot use a scissor. I used a razor blade tool it made it much easier since it is a layer of felt on top of a thin layer of rubber backing. I am very happy with this purchase. My rug is a few inches bigger than 9 x 13 which worked out well but I still had to cut the pad a couple of inches on all sides so the edges of the rug lay flat on the floor and not on the pad to prevent tripping on the edges of the rug,

Excellent product. Exactly what I was looking for. Purchased 8x10feet. Didn’t need to trim. Fit perfectly. Do note that it is not made out of rubber or foam so it doesn’t have that “bouncy” feel to it. However It is perfect for a large or small area rug for thin hand woven rugs like my French Aubusson Rugs which is thin and slippery on any hard surface as seen in my pics. Because the rug is thin, this thick felt product provides the perfect amount of support due to its thickness and density for ideal cushioning and floor and rug protection plus the underside facing the floor is anti-slip. Makes vacuuming a Breeze and so much more comfortable to walk on compared to without it. I’ve read some reviews of people saying it doesn’t have the “bouncy” or “spongy” plush feeling they are looking for similar to those in 5-star Hotels. I’ve asked the industrial carpet experts and I’ve been told That What the hotels use as underlay are not felt but Thick Rubber or Foam for that plush “bouncy” feel. And those are also very much more expensive too. So if you are looking for that spongy feel than you should look for their rubber or foam underlays. This one is also sturdy and dense enough for me to place heavy furniture on it without spoiling the rug due to its firm density. Shipped all the way to Singapore in perfect condition. Wasn’t rolled but folded for logistical practicality. The creases And folded areas plumped out and flattened out after 30 mins or so. After more than 2 weeks of use in Singapore’s very hot and humid tropical climate. I checked if the Silicon anti slip side resting against my ceramic floor tiles could have fused or stuck together due to the heat, humidity and weight of the furniture, thankfully it did not. As such I have No regrets getting this. And will order again in future.

it was used for padding for 2 rugs for our bedroom bay window. very pleased with the product.

Just set this up and it is perfect. I have a thin rug, similar to cotton rugs from the rug collective and it was always slipping around, and looked bad. This is thick, doesn't slip AT ALL, I have it on laminate flooring. Really happy with the quality of this. The top is rough, so it grabs my carpet and the bottom is grippy, so it hangs onto the floor. I got the 5x8 to put under a 6x9.5 rug. Wish I had gotten a bigger size since I can see where it drops down on the edges from the pad, but the price difference was huge between this size and the size I really needed. This still does what I want and doesn't look bad. Overall would give this product a 10/10.

So far so good.

Die Filzmatte war nicht wie in dem Produkttitel angegeben 1,9m x 1,5m, sondern viiiiiiiiiel kleiner. Das stand auch schon auf der Verpackung drauf, welche auch Zentimeter-Angaben abgebildet hatte, soweit ich mich erinnere. Warum also diese viel zu große Größenangabe im Titel gelandet ist, erschließt sich mir nicht. Ich war super enttäuscht und verärgert, denn bis auf die falsche Größe hatte die Matte nämlich einen guten Eindruck gemacht, außer dass ich sie etwas zu teuer finde für die kleine Größe, die man da bekommt. Da die Matte aus den USA versandt worden ist, war die Retoure dadurch auch aufwändiger und zeitintensiver, schade auch um das unnötige und verschwendete CO2 für den Rückweg.
