Glides Smoothly, Protects Carpets I tried these Smart Surface furniture sliders on a couple of heavy pieces—our solid wood dresser and a sectional sofa—and they worked exactly as promised. The round 3.5" size gives a broad base, so the weight distributes nicely and nothing digs into the carpet. I was able to push the sofa across the room with one hand, which would have been impossible before. What I especially like is that they stay put once placed under the legs. They’re not flimsy; the build feels sturdy and the smooth plastic surface glides without catching. On thicker pile carpet, it took a little more effort, but still way easier than lifting or dragging bare legs. These also protect the carpet from crushing and tearing when moving furniture around—something I’ve noticed with other sliders that were too small or cheaply made. A small thing to keep in mind: these are designed for carpet only. On hard floors, you’d want felt pads or a different type of slider. Also, they’re not adhesive, so you’ll need to check if the furniture leg stays centered as you move. Bottom line: A reliable, well-sized set of sliders that makes moving heavy furniture on carpet a simple, one-person job while protecting your floors. Read more

I hate cleaning and I hate moving furniture. It's a pain in the ... So, when I bought new bedroom furniture I didn't want to be frustrated by either trying to move furniture or knowing there were dead bugs and dust where I couldn't clean. I bought these and put them under the legs. There's flippin ugly is what they were and completely indiscreet because the assumption is you're going to lift up all your furniture, put them in place - move your furniture, do what ya gotta do, move them back and take them out. Stupid. You know you're going to vacuum at least once in a while. So, why would you take them out just to "rinse, repeat". So these could be hella smaller and not in the poop brown color that makes them really stand out so attractively </cough> But for functionality, they darned well do work. I have a thick pile carpet and I move some fairly heavy (yet incredibly cheap furniture) across and clean behind with ease now. So, I don't think about decaying critters in my bedroom. I have enough trouble sleeping without that thought in my head. Besides, have you ever tried to sleep in room with a dead stink bug? These are your best friend for getting rid of dead stink bugs trapped behind furniture. It's just ... they're big and ugly in a Dorothy Zbornak kind of way, and loveable like Sophia Zbornak. But no sex appeal or St Olaf stories. Read more
Update: Dec 7, 2018 - Hey! So, happy to report that even though most of these that had furniture stored on them are permanently dented in the foam, and a couple are even cracking-- guess what, they still work completely fine. I'm pleased. I had spinal surgery a few months ago and lifting is basically out in general, so when the apartment I was moving into had carpet, I knew I had a problem. In the store, these are so expensive, but this looked like a good deal, so I thought I'd try them out. They work GREAT! The hardest part was figuring out not to center the corners of furniture on the centers of the pads, but push the pads -almost- flush with the edges of the furniture. Now, it can be a little difficult to get some of the sliders on when you're by yourself. However, it IS possible, and yes, even stupidly heavy furniture that's horrible for two people to lift can get pushed around with ease. My recommendation is that you do have a friend (or makeshift use a wall, carefully) to help you put them on under the furniture initially. I want to get some more for the rest of the furniture we have. I can't imagine trying move my furniture around the carpet without them. I HATE having to rely on other people to do things for me, but struggling, straining, and potentially permanently hurting myself is worse. This lets me do everything myself, and change it whenever I want, however I want. Read more

I have sliders in all sizes, but these were purchased for big, heavy furniture moving. I had to move my home office from one room to down the hall to a smaller room. I am 75 and recovering from THR, I put these sliders under my desk legs, big comply chair, large credenza and a bookcase. I was able to move all furniture by myself by just pushing them down the hall and sliding into position. So easy and moving them back was simple! Read more
