Seven foot round rug pads are hard to find. Most I would have had to cut off quite a bit to size it down, but this one was offered in many shapes and sizes. It is also less expensive than most of the felt pads I found online. It is good quality felt that, like other pads, is soft on one side and has a harder surface on the other. It protects my hardwood floors and it also seems thicker than the 1/4" it is supposed to be. That was a nice surprise. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this pad.

1/4 in ordered and I would not want anything thicker. Cushion enough without causing a trip hazzard. Feels like good quality. Longer than my 8x10 rug so will need to cut, but that's not a big deal. This is not skid proof, it's just felt. Works perfectly for under my living rm and bdrm furniture but will have to find a vinyl safe alternative for my runners.

Bought this to put under an area rug and to protect new hardwood floors. It adds some cushion to rug and provides a protective barrier against the rough back of the rug.
