Review on Non-Slip Carpet Stair Treads For Wooden Steps, 15Pcs 8X30In Slip Resistance Indoor Peel & Stick Stair Treads Carpet Runner Mats For Elders, Kids, Dogs, Staircase Step Rugs Stair Grip Non-Slip, Scarlet by Jason Childs

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Good alternative to textured safety tapes

I purchased these because I have my parents living with us and two small pups to prevent slips and falls on the stairs after an incident involving a slip and fall wearing socks. I think everyone knows how slippery wood flooring could get especially if you do not have solid footing on the tread.I did not want to write this review before trying them out for a few months.After about two full months of use by 4 humans and 2 dogs, they have held up remarkably well and the adhesion to wood flooring has been impressive. Not one of the carpet pieces have slipped out of place and have absorbed some of the shock on my dogs from them going down the stairs and they do not slip at all anymore - compared to when I had 4" wide textured safety tape on my stair edge only.If you want a non-slip surface and are willing to give up a little on the looks department, give these a try.

Pros
  • Safe for use on stairs without handrails
Cons
  • The treads may not be suitable for use in homes with users who wear socks
