I am convinced that thick rug pads are a must to make any rug feel luxurious. So worth the price and makes the room more quiet too. Love this rugpad company . I have ordered twice from rugpadusa and i plan on getting more to add comfort to the kitchen too .We just installed vinyl floors and were surprised that only certain rug pads could be used. This company is the only one we found that makes the pad the way it should be made. Ours required a little cutting, which was accomplished with scissors. Thanks for enhancing our carpet!This is a very soft, and super plush rug pad that I highly recommend if you want maximum comfort for your feet when walking on your rug. And if you don’t want to worry about any possible chemical or rubber breakdown that occurs overtime with standard rug pads that are anti skid. One thing to note about this pad is that it will not prevent your rug from slipping at all and in fact could cause it to start slipping if it previously did not slip. We use this pad for our rug in the living room and it has enhanced how comfortable and soft the rug feels when standing or walking around the room. It gets a lot of foot traffic but given the weight of the furniture on the rug it never slips except for the corners and edges occasionally. To remedy this we purchased some rug stays to use on the corners to help them sit flat against the hardwood floor. So if your rug is like ours and it never moved around once you install this of it can start slipping occasionally on the edges or corners.One last thing to note is that this pad is cut to spec from the RUGPADUSA website which is 2 inches off each side so it is actually 7’10”x9’10” which is important to know. I made the mistake of not actually measuring my rug, and I didn’t know that it was actually 7’7”x10’... so when this pad arrived I was super excited until I realized I would either have to ship this back or cut off 4-5 inches of heat pressed felt. Minor aside, they say they cut off 2 inches and it’s very close to 2 or slightly less, but I would assume they want to be as accurate as possible without cutting off too much material. I opted to keep the pad and cut 5 inches of material off the side taking my pad from 7’10” to 7’5”, a perfect compliment to my 7’7” rug. While cutting the material I used a combination of kitchen scissors (that need to be sharpened) and a box cutter/razor blade and it was a good amount of work. This is not easy and part of that is due to my tools not being designed for this work. I also had this on a finished hardwood floor, so I couldn’t jam the box cutter into the floor and pull and that still might not have been enough. It’s not that the blade wasn’t sharp, it’s this heat pressed felt material that is incredibly durable and difficult to cut and damage without sharper or better specific tools.I think the price difference and total savings between the RUGPADUSA website and Amazon were less then $10 after applying a 15%-20% off promo code on the RUGPADUSA website. The overall hassle of having to cut my pad was not worth the savings I felt I was getting by ordering through Amazon. The cost of the pad for my custom size from RUGPADUSA would have been the same cost as this 8x10 with promo codes since they would have used less material when cutting my slightly smaller custom size.Overall I love this pad and would highly recommend it to anyone that wants to make their home rugs more luxurious and comfortable to stand/walk on. And don’t forget to double check your rugs measurements!It fit perfectly with the Persian rug.The quality of the pad exceed my expectations. Trimming was easy.I see many reviews on rug pads that say the pad was not as thick as advertised. Not so with us. We purchased a half inch pad and that is what we received. I measured. its also very dense. I had to trim it and is was difficult to cut which I'm pleased with. It's not sparse or fluff. It should last a long time.The dimensions were spot on. There was no need to trim. This is placed under a thin area rug. The carpet and pad look all of a piece. The pad is sturdy, easy to put down and stays put due to the slightly rough undercoat.The thickness adds wonderful padding without becoming spongy under foot. We placed this pad under our kitchen rug for additional comfort on aging joints for a cook who likes to cook and bake for extended periods of time. Our Newfoundland's like it too.This is our second rug pad from this company. We purchased the first one several years ago for our living room. That room has a lot of traffic and big dogs along with tables and furniture. The pad is as nice today as it was the day we placed it.I've been very pleased with our purchases from this company. The shipping is relatively quick, even over the holiday. The shipping containers are well done. The pads fit almost exactly into the cardboard box. No extra refuse to worry about. I will continue to order from this company.This is made up of recycled materials. Because of the recycling process be aware color and quality will vary even within and throughout the product itself. There are random thin spots. Being made of recycled material glued together one side of the padding was softer than the other, while the opposite side was extremely abrasive, you could easily identify the feel of glue. I was going to use this on an unfinished hardwood floor but due to its sandpaper like quality it will do more harm than good. I’m going to be better off buying two rugs and place them back to back.At first the shipping time for this product was estimated at about 3 weeks, but it arrived well before the estimated shipping time, which we appreciated very much. It came rolled up in a plastic sleeve and was easy to manage. We had to trim the product to fit our carpet. To do this, we used a measuring tape, a fat Sharpie marker and a sharp pair of scissors. It trimmed up nicely. If you need to trim it, be prepared for a two-person job. Take your time and expect to invest a reasonable amount of patience for the trimming job. You will not get perfect 90 degree angle cuts if you need to trim this underlay, but that is normal with this type of felted product. We trimmed the underlay such that it was about 1 cm shorter all around than the carpet itself. The end result was that the underlay does not show and the edges of the carpet lay flat on the floor.One important point for prospective buyers to be aware of is that this underlay will not prevent the carpet from sliding around on a wooden floor. We used the underlay beneath an area rug that sits under a dining room table. A heavy piece of furniture will help to anchor the carpet and the underlay, but don't expect this underlay to anchor your rug to the floor. It offers thick comfort underfoot and protection for the hardwood floor, which is precisely what we were after. I recommend this product, providing you no not need the underlay to anchor the rug to the floor. Would buy it again.Was hoping this was a little more "plush" as it really didn't give my fluffy shag the oomph I was hoping for.Anyway it fits well (7' round) and will protect my hardwood flooring.Great quality felt rug pad.Fit perfectly! I wasn't too sure about how well the product was made, but didn't need too was just what it said it was!
