This is NOT Anti-SlipKathleaI've purchased this product before, and it works well - much like some others describe - it is thin and difficult to get out the creases, but it is sticky enough to hold a rug in place. I just purchased this again in August 2025, and it is not sticky AT ALL. I mean, it slides just as much as the thin rug I'm trying to keep in place. I'll be returning this, but for all those thinking about this product - I'd skip this batch. It does not work and someone could get hurt. IKEA quality waxes and wanes - the production of this anti-slip rug seems to be going through a rough patch.1
Doesn't actually fit rug as recommended, not great at keeping anything in placeRyanPurchased this as a recommended item alongside a rug, but the rug pad is too small, by about one foot, horizontally. As another review mentioned, it's also hard to keep completely flat because of how thin it is, so trying to get the rug down on top without causing the rug "pad" to bunch up was an involved process. I would not recommend purchasing this.2
No Slipping With this Rug UnderlayKathleenI have purchased this rug underlay multiple times for various rooms and continue to find it a good value. It is thin, which I need, so that it doesn't add bulk which would impede doors from opening. It works well to keep area rugs in place. I highly recommend this product.5
Works great!HeatherI have braided rugs in my old farmhouse. This works much better than the waffle weave grippy mat that's supposed to keep rugs from slipping. I bought the largest size and cut it to size for each of my rugs. 5

Minimally usefulIreneThe mat has lots of creases in it and almost no weight. So it is not really possible to get it to lie flat on the floor. My rug is also very thin. There is just enough stick to the mat that it's impossible to adjust the lying of the rug over the mat. It's got hills and valleys that I can't get out because they are sticking together.
It might work better under a heavier rug, but a heavier rug would also need more padding to prevent its wearing out.
I would not buy this again.2
Too thin.AngelaI needed to double them just to use under a kitchen throw rug.3
Great!PaolaIts been working great with a small area rug. Ive tried other types but none have worked like this. 5
Slippery Now, unlike past purchasesWilliamWhile past purchases of STOPP FILT were "sticky" and very effective in preventing rug slipping, this purchase has no adhesion and was nearly useless. Returned.1
Does the job SonnyDoes the job, no complaints. 5
Does not workJulieI would not bother getting this. It doesn’t help with non slipping at all. 1
Underlay BeverlyExcellent for the rug! 5
Wrong size but worksSusannahPurchased two of these. One took a lot of time and effort to unfold only to discover it was significantly smaller than labeled. Instead of 6'3" it's closer to 63". But it is keeping my rug from sliding around. The other unfolded easily, was the correct size, but doesn't grip that well.3
Stop mattLindaThis product is awesome. You buy it put it underneath your area on. It does not move. Went back and bought more if they are just wonderful..5
Does its jobCrystalWorks well for anti-slip underneath a rug without backing. 5
Rug is still slipping with thisDawnMore than once, my ikea rug is still slipping with this and I have tripped. Safety concern.
Online orders cannot be returned online. :(1

Great Value CherriDoes the job-rug doesn’t move.5
