Questions and Answers for SAFAVIEH Durapad Grey 8 ft. x 11 ft. Non-Slip Hard Surface Rug Pad

A:  Hi Linda. It works fairly well mainly to protect your carpet from rugs that do not have a dedicated backing. Usually if the rug you are placing on top of the carpet doesn't have a backing, it will damage the top fibers of your carpet. Thank you for your inquiry.

A:  Hi Lola. No, this rug does not come with non-staining properties. Thank you for your inquiry.

A:  No, this pad is not non-staining.

A:  It should be usable on any vinyl floor.

A:  Hi. The dimensions listed under Approximate Size is approximated and have fixed values. The length and width are correct. However, the height given in the earlier Q&A was incorrect. The pile height for this is not 0.08 of an inch. It is .3 of an inch. Thank you.

A:  The pad I received is much darker than pictured. It is exactly 9’ wide but the length is about 9” shorter than the twelve feet stated. It works fine with the area rug I purchased. I actually plan to cut off some of the width. I’m more concerned about the dark color on my light tile.

A:  No bubbles. I lifted the rug a couple of days ago to dry to try to flatten out the pad some more. Pad lifted from floor easily. My rug was about same size that you have.

A:  Hello. This is a cushioned rug pad that is ventilated to offer air circulation. Thank you.

A:  Yes, it has a rubber backing.

A:  The one I received is 9 feet 9.5 inches long, and 8 feet one-half inch wide.

A:  The dimensions are correct.

A:  8 mm (0.3 inch) is the thickness indicated, which is between a 1/4 of an inch and 3/8 of an inch. The felt fiber pad under our kitchen wool area rug that sits on a hardwood floor measures 4 mm thick. It gave adequate support and non slip performance for the 10 year life of the rug that we are currently replacing.

A:  I don't really know the thickness but it is perfect for my oriental rug. Wouldn't want it thicker.

A:  Hello. The thickness of this rug is 0.08 inches. It is recommended for thinner rugs. Thank you.

A:  It's at least a good quarter inch thick and very sturdy.

A:  I cut mine about one inch less that the actual rug measurements. Just enough that the rug would lay well on the floor.

A:  Hello, Thank you for your question. We recommend that rug pads be an inch shorter on all sides compared to the rug. Thank you for choosing The Home Depot.
