2-sided tape that actually works!

I bought this tape to cover a 2 x 6 foot decorative rug that lays over/covers a 12 foot power strip extension chord that runs from the wall to my power reclining couches in the center of the living room. Ive had the rug there for 4 years & have tried numerous things ( non skid rug mats) & tapes (duct, masking, frog,) to keep the rug in place to no avail! Alas, a MIRACLE! This tape stuck to both my room carpeting and the rug and it hasn't moved one inch (stays exactly where I put the rug). No…

Pros
  • Tape, Adhesives & Fasteners
Cons
  • Does not provide a long-lasting hold

Great product.does the job but don't plan to really reuse it

Between the dogs and felt shuffling housemates, I felt like I spent my life fixing rugs. I had tried other products and given up years ago, resigned to spending much h of my life bent over. But between them moving the rugs and rugs losing backing so quickly.I decided to try again. Bingo! It works, is easy and contains enough to make it affordable.Edit note,and loss of a star. After having a while, I find the seller claims that it can be restuck numerous times is inaccurate. Well you can restick

Pros
  • Optimal weight, strength, and pliability, the best nonslip heavy duty dual tape on the market is easy to handle, apply, stays in place, slip safe, and removable with no residue.
Cons
  • Can be expensive compared to other rug anchoring products

Absolutely recommend for kids!

I’ve got a house full of kids running around. I don’t know how other people do it with just a rug mat. Yes the mat keeps the rug from slipping and turning crooked but in my home, I noticed the high traffic corner of my rugs was curling up from the kids hitting it with their feet. In my 3 years with this product I have had no issues. And I’ve only needed to use about half a roll. I’ve been using it only on the corners of the rug (and occasionally 10” or so along the long side of a floor runner…

Pros
  • Our tape offers a solution to those who have mats or runners that frequently slide across the floor
Cons
  • May not be suitable for use in rooms with high humidity

True investment: my feedback

I love this tape especially with a 7 and 4 year old running and always lifting the rugs or making them crooked. This tape truly does the job, I used it in our bedrooms and even in our hallway runner rug and Im so shocked that with the amount of high traffic the rugs are all holding steady with this tape and we still have almost a full roll left. I am extremely thankful for this tape since I have minor OCD and I have completely removed rugs because theynhave messed up so much. Thank you again…

Pros
  • Say goodbye to repositioning and readjusting your rugs and carpets thanks to our tape’s strong grip
Cons
  • May not be strong enough to hold down larger or heavier rugs or carpets

Strong Enough to Hold Up an 8' Banner - Works GREAT!

I purchased this double sided tape to attach my 8-foot banner to the tablecloth which was placed over an exhibit table for a trade show. It worked beautifully! It was super easy to apply and to remove. It kept the banner in place for the duration of the event (about 10 hours). It most likely would have withstood a longer period of time as it was very secure. Afterward the event was over, we simply removed the tape from the back of the banner. There was no residual tape or stickiness on either…

Pros
  • It’s perfect for those who are prone to sneezing or have allergies caused by dust accumulation under their carpets
Cons
  • May not be suitable for use on certain types of laminate flooring

Best tape out there and I tried 5 different kinds

Wow! This stuff is by far the best tape for the thick rugged that we have on a hard floor. I have tried about 4 different kinds of pads, tape, adhesives and this with my far the best . You get a HUGE amount for a great price. I will keep buying this! The hardware store sold a rug kit for $17.99 that basically fell off within a week. This is the best

Pros
  • The tape is kid-friendly, non-toxic and completely safe for use in your home
Cons
  • May not be strong enough to hold down rugs or carpets on stairs

This tape is awesome! Will only buy from Melca!

This tape is awesome! I just ordered my third roll from this company. I have used this tape on area rugs and the two runners going down my hallways. I have never had to replace the tape on these rugs because it keeps everything from shifting or moving. Only reason why I am on my third roll is because I just added additional area rugs in other rooms of my house and refuse to use any other car

Pros
  • Our tape allows you to enjoy a cleaner and more organized living space
Cons
  • Can be difficult to apply in small or tight spaces

Great Tape! Very Sticky on Both Sides!

I used this tape to stick together 2 plastic runners to protect a very light colored carpet. My Mom uses a walker and the wheels were making 2 dark tracks into her bedroom on her nearly white carpet. It worked perfectly to stick the bottom runner that really stays in place on the carpet to the top runner which is 11" wider. Unfortunately, the wider runner will not stay in place on the carpet. I hope this will be the solution we've been looking for!Very good tape, I'm sure I'll find other…

Pros
  • A reliable and efficient solution for keeping your carpets and rugs in place for years to come
Cons
  • Can be difficult to apply to rugs or carpets with a patterned or textured surface

LOVE the Melca Double Sided Tape

I needed carpet tape to adhere my new family room carpet to the floor tiles underneath. This tape is wonderful. Has excellent adhesion. What amazed me the most, however, was the quick follow up and attention afforded me by Melody and Carl. I received a very personal email thanking me for my order. I also received the Top 10 Tape Hacks from them telling me other things I can do with this double sided tape. This was the first time I ever received such attention after purchasing something on…

Pros
  • Easy to cut to the desired size, eliminating the need for messy adhesives and glue
Cons
  • Can be messy to remove once applied

Much better than without Rug still creeps, but very slowly

This is relatively easy to apply. My rug still creeps and bunches up a bit, but much less than without the tape. It is harder to correct when it happens, but slower to do it again. And not so much that we can trip over over the lumps in the middle anymore. The tape stays firmly attached to the rug. And to the underlying carpet. And yet portions of the edge have moved. In my picture, you can see the edge of the rug is no longer straight, and there's a ripple forming at the table leg. It's a…

Pros
  • Our tape is incredibly easy to use, making it convenient and hassle-free
Cons
  • May cause discoloration on certain types of flooring

Easy To Use! good for me

So I wanted to give this tape some time before I wrote a review. This double sided carpet tape is amazing! I have a large area rug in a carpeted room where, no matter what, it moves and bunches up and a certain area.well it USED to. With this tape, I don't have those problems any more! I would definitely recommend!

Pros
  • works fine
Cons
  • Does not work well on non-flat surfaces

Sticks to pretty much anything

I know it’s sold as carpet tape but this stuff is a great, all-purpose tape. It’s very flexible and contours easily to whatever shape I need.My only gripe is with how flexible and sticky it is, it can be a challenge to work with but it’s still great stuff.

Pros
  • Our tape’s adhesive strength remains intact in areas of high humidity or moisture, making it ideal for bathrooms and other damp areas
Cons
  • May cause the rug or carpet to slide around on certain types of flooring

I do like it and it does work well

I do like it and it does work well. Cutting the tape and attaching the tape to the surface is somewhat of a challenge but I do like it and it does work well. The current runners on the stairs were originally attached via small nails and small nails proved to be useless. I suspect annual removal to clean the runners and the stairs will be required so the tape is a good option.

Pros
  • Interlocking Tape & Mounting Products
Cons
  • Can be difficult to apply evenly

Doesn't work, no adhesive

Purchased this to use under an area rug. Not only does it not hold the rug in place but it bunches up and doesn't lay flat. Once it bunches up you can't reuse it to lay it flat again.

Pros
  • Suitable for use in hotels, restaurants, and other public facilities where safety is paramount
Cons
  • Can be difficult to apply if the rug or carpet is already in place

Very adhasive works amazing

Works great.im amazed how well it works.its been 2 weeks since i put on a couple rugs that i have laid on carpet and they have stayed in place. Its very adhasive just be careful cuz im not sure how well it removes off carpet if you want to change or remove later.Lay the tape in rows across width wise on rugs like a ladder.I deffinetly recommend it. Ive tried those no slip grip pads and they dont work. This stuff works great.

Pros
  • The tape is compatible with all types of rug materials such as wool, silk or synthetic fibers
Cons
  • May cause wrinkles or bulges in the rug or carpet

Does not work as a cat deterrent

I'm sure this is a good product for other uses, but as a cat deterrent it doesn't work. I've been using Scratch Not tape to protect a carpeted corner that for some reason my cat just love to destroy and it works fine. I decided to try this one because the roll is bigger and I'd get more for my buck, but I had to return it. The tape didn't stay in place for more than 5 minutes. I saw someone else's review complaining about the same thing. Maybe it works on wood furniture, but with carpet and…

Pros
  • The tape is suitable for use on all kinds of flooring, whether hardwood, tile or carpet
Cons
  • May not work well with rugs or carpets that have a thick pile

It works GREAT! - my new review

This carpet tape works great! It's very easy to apply and so far the rug has not dared to move an inch. Good product. Can be difficult to remove once applied.

Pros
  • Did the job for my trow rugs
Cons
  • Can be difficult to remove once applied

Love this product! in my review

I had some small area rugs that always seemed to move around or get the edges flipped up. I just used this product recently, so far none of the rugs have moved or had edges flipped. It was super easy to use. I'm excited to try this product on a couple of other projects where double sided tape would be useful.I used it on carpet to carpet applications and carpet to hardwood floors as well.

Pros
  • It’s designed to withstand heavy foot traffic and is extremely durable
Cons
  • May not be suitable for use in areas with pets or small children

Sticky and a bit tricky

Finally got around to using this tape on a project. It is super sticky and a little tricky to use. It tends to stick to your scissors or knife when you are cutting it and will leave a residue on the tool which can be removed with solvent. I used denatured alcohol which happened to be at hand. Once it is on the intended object though, it seams to hold on tight. I think it will take a little trial and error to find a cutting process that works but, I think this tape will be useful for lots of…

Pros
  • Cost-effective and affordable
Cons
  • May not hold up well in high traffic areas

Great to deter cats!

Want to keep your cat off the counter while you are away on vacation. Use this instead of the "cat strips". Cheaper, you get more and you can use these stuff for other projects. It comes off the counter pretty easily too compared to the other stuff. I love that I see like tuffs of cat hair sticking up in places after getting home. Now my cat stays off the counter and I've been putting this in other places. It's white too, so it blends in where I put it where it's already white.

Pros
  • Effortlessly keep your carpets and rugs in place with our double-sided tape
Cons
  • May damage flooring or carpets if not applied correctly
