Cons

Good adhesion. best in my review

I have been looking for a good double sided tape for outdoor use for awhile. I bought this to use on an outdoor patio rug that kept blowing away. The rug is a 5x7 rug that I had to keep putting heavy flower pots on each corner to hold down, but the rug would bunch up and have big wrinkles in it that caused a tripping hazard. We have had some heavy rain and wind since I put the tape on my rug and it has not moved a bit. Wish I had found it sooner!

Pros
  • The tape grips firmly to your carpet or rug, without causing any discoloration or fading over time
Cons
  • Can cause damage to the rug or carpet when it is removed

Works well but not as thick as some of the other options

I used it to install luxury vinyl plank flooring.I haven't tried to lift off the flooring so I cannot speak to that. have no problems thus far, but there are other options that are thicker grade that I have a preference for.

Pros
  • The tape is invisible, ensuring that it blends in perfectly with your rug or carpet
Cons
  • May not work well with rugs or carpets that have a thin or delicate backing

Great tape! for my opinion

I used this tape to tape down LEGO base plates on my DIY LEGO tables. This tape worked so well and is super strong I did mess up but was able to get it up without breaking the baseplate. Super easy to use and you get a lot on the roll. I did 2 LEGO tables (2 - 15x15” baseplates) with 7 strips of tape each and I still have a bunch left over

Pros
  • Our double-sided tape is environmentally friendly since it’s free from harmful chemicals
Cons
  • May not hold up well over time

Got Charlie to show her happy face!

It's basically perfect. My wife and I recently bought a table with benches and cushions for the benches. Those cushions were slipping and sliding all over the place (cloth on wood) and we originally tried using rubber non-slip grip (non-adhesive). That failed super hard. I saw this was highly reviewed and decided to give it a shot. Wife was skeptical, she thought it would leave tape goo all over and generally not work. To keep this short, this tape made me a hero and our benches are now…

Pros
  • It’s safe to use on all types of flooring without damaging your beautiful hardwood or tile floors
Cons
  • May not be suitable for use on certain types of vinyl flooring

I am using this as an adhesive backing for plain paper return labels . the company I am working with used to supply sticky-backed return labels--an instrumental part of their excellent get-it-home (try it out) and-then-decide-if-you-want-to-make-the-purchase-within-30-days policy!the end of the sticky labels are most likely a cost-cutting measure, but it is a tiresome and picky process to peel (HA) the mailing label off and obscure the old postage skew. using this double-sided tape to fit the…

Pros
  • It’s perfect for DIY home decor enthusiasts looking for a quick and easy solution to décor mishaps
Cons
  • Can cause a glossy or shiny effect on some types of flooring

TAPE HELD FIRM: my feedback

I used the tape to hold down an outdoor rug on my patio. The old tape had dried up and let the rug blow up rather than stay in position. The new tape seems to be working well.

Pros
  • Office Products
Cons
  • Can be messy to work with

Works well for my purposes

I may not be using the tape for what it was intended, but the tape seems to work fairly well for what I needed it for. I’m simply using it to make a temporary bond between 2 pieces of wood so they get cut with the same pattern and then be able to separate them. The tape holds the pieces together very well so it served its purpose.

Pros
  • Perfect for those who have limited mobility or are unable to bend down to reposition rugs and carpets
Cons
  • May not work well with rugs or carpets that have a rubber or latex backing

Not recommended to keep cats off desks and counters

It's pretty sticky and easy to apply. I like that the tape sticks to smooth surfaces really nicely and that it comes off without leaving a lot of residue.I bought this with hopes that I could keep my cat from counter surfing, but the white color is so easy to spot for my cat. She quickly realized that white surfaces are sticky and avoids them, so that's good; but for my wooden night stand, she just walks around the tape.

Pros
  • The tape does not leave any residue, ensuring that your floors remain spotless
Cons
  • Can be difficult to reposition once applied

I GIVE THIS A 10!: my feedback

Super easy to use! We have heavy HEAVy traffic from 10 dogs and my walker and cane back and forth. This tape is WONDERFUL! Sticks and my throw carpets don't move. I'm thrilled with this!

Pros
  • Suitable for use in a variety of settings, from living rooms and bedrooms to nurseries and offices
Cons
  • Can be difficult to remove from certain types of tile flooring

Really Good Tape on my review.

My wife recently decided to get some Bamboo Wood flooring and wanted some rugs and a thread mill mat to protect the new floors. We do not like rugs that slip or thread mill mats that don't lay flat. The Melca tape works great and keeps the runner rug snug to the new wooden floor and the curled edges on the mat is flat as well. You don't see it mentioned on the reviews that I have read but the tape does not add height to the rugs or mat it is very thin but seems to be very strong. I really can't

Pros
  • The double-sided tape is versatile and can also be used to secure tablecloths, placemats or other home decor items
Cons
  • May not be as effective on certain types of hardwood flooring

Works well on my review.

We bought some runners with non slip pads underneath. They work great except the runners slide on the pads. Used this tape to stick them and it's holding them together solidly.Sticky, but not gooey so don't expect any issues with removal. The backing really simplified the installation too.

Pros
  • No more wrinkling or folding of your rugs, our tape ensures a smooth and neat finish
Cons
  • Can be difficult to remove cleanly from certain types of flooring or carpets

Great multi purpose tape!

This tape is magical on hardwood floors! We purchased to secure foam puzzle flooring in our babys playpen. The tape is extra sticky and does not leave a residue when you pull it up. Its wider than other brands we have tried and is easy to rip by hand. We also used it to secure non slip rug backings to our expensive area rugs. This is much better than taping your rugs directly to the floor because you can still move them if needed and it will not damage the back of the rugs from pulling them…

Pros
  • It’s great for use in busy households or commercial spaces with high foot traffic
Cons
  • Can be difficult to apply to curved or irregularly-shaped rugs or carpets

Easy to peel for my opinion

Was easy to peel,was easy to use,rugs are staying in place,haven't tried to remove yet,so I don't know about that ,so far I'm pleased.!

Pros
  • It’s a convenient solution for those who love to rearrange their home decor frequently
Cons
  • May not work well in high humidity environments

I haven't had much time to test it yet, but I can already tell it's higher quality than the slightly sticky net tape that we've purchased in the past for keep our carpets in place. It's pretty easy to put on, and the hardest part is peeling off the backing, which is a bit annoying, but once you get it started it peels right off. It sticks much better to the carpet and, so far, the rugs are held pretty solidly! I read others say there's no residue left over when it's time to replace it, so I…

Pros
  • Our double-sided tape is versatile, can be removed without the risk of damaging your floors
Cons
  • May not provide a strong enough hold to prevent tripping or slipping

I've been searching for years for something to keep my throw rugs and runners from slipping on my carpet! I've tried everything and nothing worked until I decided to try this amazing tape! It's not perfect but it holds better than the half dozen things that I've bought and wasted money on! Hooray! Finally something that actually works! There is a little slip here and there but not much! BUY IT! If you've been looking for something to keep your rugs from slipping on your carpet, here it is! I'm…

Pros
  • Significantly reduces the risk of tripping hazards and potential injuries
Cons
  • May not work well with certain types of area rugs

not for carpet on tile floors

I bought here a Safavieh runner made from a very tough textile.It had been rolled up tightly and just did not want to lay flat. I had difficulty getting the ends to stay down as well as parts in the middle wanting to ride up. I was using this tape already on other rugs but it was not working : Optimum Technologies Lok Lift Rug Gripper Slip-Resistant Rug Tape for Rugs and Mats, 2.5-Inches by 25-Feet . So I decided to try this Melca double sided tape. It did not work and I did request a refund…

Pros
  • Ideal for those who have pets and wish to avoid accidents caused by sliding rugs or carpets
Cons
  • Can be difficult to apply to rugs or carpets with fringe or tassels

This tape is great for so many purposes

This tape is awesome, son! It's got serious adhesion properties that I appreciate. I used a pair of scissors to cut this stuff, and I felt bad for the scissors and retired them! I had to use an adhesive removal wipe from a colleague to remove the residue from the scissors, then it came out of retirement. This tape is great for so many purposes, and I'm glad I have it in my arsenal. The shipping was on point, so kudos to the seller. There's a rating category that states 'Easy to remove'; I gave…

Pros
  • It’s a cost-effective solution that saves you from having to purchase new rugs frequently
Cons
  • May not work well with rugs or carpets that have an uneven or bumpy backing

Works Great! - my new review

Used this for two area carpets/pads we use in our garage when playing ping-pong. We create a fair amount of force moving forward and backwards and side to side while playing ping-pong and the carpet would always move out of place. I cut this tape into two foot pieces and applied 2 to 3 to each side of the pads, securing them to the concrete, then did the same to secure the carpet to the pad. No slippage at all now.

Pros
  • Our tape can withstand extreme weather conditions, making it ideal for outdoor use as well
Cons
  • May not be as effective on certain types of tile or stone flooring with a textured surface
