Sweet Home Stores Clear Plastic Runner Rug Carpet Protector Mat Ribbed Multi Grip High-spike (26x6)

Muy bueno flexible

The pictures didn't make clear, exactly how sturdy this mat is, so I took some. Wow, I'm impressed! It's like heavy duty office chair mat, with strong plastic ribs in it. The corners are square, not rounded... which is perfect for my needs.One of the bifold doors is missing on our room. It's a custom size door, not easy to replace. Nonetheless, I have a desire to keep cats out. Since I can't replace the door, I've tried other things, such as drapes, plastic shower curtains, wire shelving, cardboard... but they always chew/claw/jump their way through.I hung this mat to make a cheap sliding door, and when I did, voila! This mat resists all claws! The cats can't jump it, it's too high; they can't push through it, it's too thick. I have the bottom blocked with a cardboard box to prevent them from turning into 'pudding cats' and oozing their way through the bottom.It feels stronger and thicker than my thick office chair floor mat, which I paid over $100 for.So for the cost of two shower curtains, I have a solution that will let me sleep at night. Yay.

Im very happy with my purchase because i believe i got a good deal for the price.I bought this mat to use as a runner, across the carpeted room that leads to the outside.Im not sure why others are complaining so much about several things, which i have listed and explained below:1) the smell: yes, it smells bad but ONLY if you're actually putting your nose right next to it. So, all the bad reviews that said it had a terrible chemical smell right out of the box are not true. I didnt smell anything, out of the box, so i decided to get real close to see what reviewers were complaining about. So, in other words, you wont notice the smell unless you're looking for it.2) needs to be aired out: Because of these reviews I decided to leave it (rolled up but standing) in the garage for 3 days. I really don't think it needed to be aired out but I decided to take the safe route, on this one. I have small kids and didnt want to fill up the room with any smell. After the 3 days, I unrolled it and put it where i wanted it, i didnt have any problems with smell. None! Again, not sure why others are complaining saying it fills the room with a nasty smell. I think they might be way too sensitive because i have a pretty good nose, when it comes to smells, and i cant get a scent off of it.3) doesn't lay flat: although i can see why some say this, i think they are being overly picky. Im a pretty picky person but as you can see on my pics, it lays pretty flat. Yes, it is not perfectly straight (because it came rolled) but it also doesnt cause a tripping hazard like others have mentioned. Maybe it would for those that have trouble walking. Look at the pic and you can see for yourself how it lays. I didnt have to do anything to it, but unroll it, either. It's laid pretty flat from the beginning (i.e. it hasnt been there for days/weeks/months).4) the corners stick up: i had no trouble with the corners sticking up. Especially because the mat came rolled with the pokey-side in. So the corners lay flat, as well.Overall, i am very satisfied with my purchase. It does the job just fine. The only reason I give this mat a 4-star is because the spikes do not dig into my carpet, as much as I had hoped, so it does allow movement of the mat. I don't see this as a major negative but it is a bit inconvenient to have to move the mat back to where i want it. You can see the type of carpet I have, in pics. Its a thin carpet so it may do a better job of holding on to a thicker carpet/rug. Other than this I am happy that I didnt spend more money on a mat that wouldve given me the same performance as this one.

The media could not be loaded. Excellent idk why other reviews say it smells. Have no idea cuz this mat had no order whatsoever when it arrived and it’s perfect. Does not fold when we pull our chairs out. Very sturdy does not move at all. Perfect buy. Before this I had bought one from Walmart it was very thin everyone kept tripping. It folded when you walked on it. This Amazon Mat double the price but so worth it. Second time buying it for the other side of my carpet.

I gave this one star rating because of how off the description is. Mine came in great condition unlike some who received it broken. It’s pretty flexible and the spikes on the back are actually just nubs. They’re not pokey/scratchy at all. The smell on mine really isn’t that strong and I’m very sensitive the chemical smells. I’ll see how my guest room smells in the morning. The description says 26x6. It doesn’t say whether it’s inches or feet, which is really stupid. Mine is 27” wide so that’s pretty close to the 26 number. And it’s 68” long which is 5.66’. ANY product should be measured and labeled and cut accordingly. It is NOT 6’ long. To give people the best description, they should make sure each mat is made the exact same length and width and they should specify whether the number is in inches or feet. You’re better off going to a hardware store or big box store so you can see exactly what you’re working with. For $14, I’ll find a use for it.

It’s exactly the size I need. I can only hope that the awful smell subsides because if it doesn’t I’ll have to send it back.

I bought this to line my mobility scooter carrier floor so I wouldn’t get road spatter on my scooter. This was the right size for my carrier, easy to insert and tie down. I did face a challenge when I rolled the scooter up the ramp because this wanted to move forward with the scooter. I’m going to look into bolting it in place instead of using ratchet straps. Because it’s thin it may tear from the bolt holes, but worth a try.

Not sure what everyone else's complaints are with this. Only thing I really had to do, and that is only because it wasn't warm out when I unrolled it making the protector was cold and inflexible, was to take a piece of duct tape to keep my door from rolling it up. The nubs on the underside aren't that tall or sharp. Likely to keep them from scratching things. I've got it on top of Berber type carpet and it really doesn't move around. Works great for my mud room. Really like the looks of it as well.
