Mohawk Home 8 x 10 Non Slip Grip Rug Pad 1 4 Thick Dual Surface Felt Cushion Rubber

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! Read more

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.

Great product. Very cushiony, non-slip, no odor (found others that had strong chemical smell when opened) and great price point. Will purchase more for other rooms of our house! Read more

Works well, was easy to trim and install. Good value for the price. I was in a hurry and needed to install it immediately….. I wish I had the time to let it ‘air out’ prior to installing. I think it’s possible that would have prevented my only complaint and my only reason for not giving 5 stars . It has a strong odor…… smells a bit like boiled eggs🥴. Now that my events have passed, I’m hoping to figure out a way to de-fumigate it. For now, burning candles in that room ‘tricks’ the nose. My advice to future purchasers would be to open it up and let it air out a couple of days before stifling the smell with your rug. Other than that, it feels very cushy and of good quality. Read more

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. Read more

Soft rug pad that provides excellent padding below rugs to make them softer and more secure. The top of the rug pad is textured and a little rough. It's not so tough that my cat won't sit on it. The bottom is sticky and keeps the pad and rug in place. All my rugs have this rug pad underneath it including my entryway door. The 1/4 inch is a good thickness to provide some extra cushioning while keeping the rug thin enough so doors can open it. Depending on the size, the pad may need to be trimmed so it doesn't peak out beneath the rug. I find regular scissors fine for doing this. It doesn't need too much maintenance - a shake and vacuum seems to be fine for cleaning. Read more
