10'x14' Durahold Plus(TM) Non-Slip Felt and Rubber Rug Pad for Hardwood Floors - Includes RPFL(TM) Rug Care Guide - Perfect for Living Room, Bedroom & High Traffic Areas

Pad Liquidators sent a new 5x8 Durahold Plus rug pad and the price was excellent, and the shipping was fast. The pad has felt on one side and rubber on the other. NO CHEMICAL SMELL! Hooray!! The only problem I had was the felt would stick too well to the rug, so adjusting it was a BEAR, especially as I was doing this alone. I finally figured it out.(NOTE: Be careful not to rub up against the felt side. I accidentally rubbed the top of my forearm hard against the felt and ended up with an abrasion that bled.)1) Turn the rug over and gaffer-tape it to the floor (I did 4 corners and the middles of the long edges.) As you tape it down, STRETCH the rug out and then apply the tape. My rug had been stored on end and was compressed.2) Put the rug pad on the rug with the rubber down. Adjust & center it to get a sense of how much room you need to have on each edge.3) Turn the pad over so the rubber is up. Roll it up as well as you can. Then line it up with one short end of the rug, and unroll it, removing the gaffer tape from the rug, and making sure that it's relatively parallel to one of the long edges of the rug. With a bit of work, you can get it to unroll onto the rug so it's centered edge-to-edge. Walk all over the pad and rug to make sure it's sticking as well as possible.4) Turn the whole affair over and put it where you want.The rug pad was just a touch smaller than 5x8--the perfect size. It is thick, soft, and insulating. It's very comfortable to walk on. The rug does not slip at all. I liked it so much I ordered another one today.
