YYXLIFE Double Sided Carpet Tape for Area Rugs & Hardwood Floors, 2" x12YD

I purchased the YYXLIFE Double-Sided Carpet Tape (2 Inch x 20 Yards) to keep a few area rugs from sliding, and it has exceeded my expectations. The adhesive is incredibly strong, keeping everything securely in place even with heavy foot traffic and pets. The tape was easy to cut to size, simple to apply, and bonded well to both the rug and the floor. Once installed, my rugs stayed flat with no curling edges or slipping, which has made my home feel both safer and more organized. I also appreciate that the tape is thin enough to stay hidden while still providing a reliable hold. The generous 20-yard roll offers plenty of tape for multiple projects, making it a great value. If you’re looking for a dependable carpet tape for rugs, runners, or other household projects, I highly recommend this product. It delivers a secure hold, is easy to work with, and performs exactly as promised.

The rug in my Home Office kept rolling up and bending up each time I rolled my office chair, so I brought this carpet tape and it is excellent. My carpet has not moved since placing it several days ago. It sticks sticks really well, and it appears to be good value for the money. Currently, I cannot speak about any residue with removal because I have not tried to remove it. It seems to be serving its useful purpose. The color of the tape is clear underneath the white paper. So far, I can attest to making a good choice.

I’m going to give this 5 stars though I’d give it 4.5 if I could. I cut a half inch slice off the roll - just enough to put at the four corners of a rug to keep them from slipping on the tile. That works great. But because this tape is kind of thick and very sticky (as it should be) it leaves sticky residue on my scissors that I can only get off with rubbing alcohol and elbow grease. I wish they’d make this tape segmented so I could just take off a piece instead of having to cut it. Maybe I’m the only one that uses it this way thus the 5 stars. But, it works very well for keeping rugs from sliding on tile. I’ve used other grippers but they just don’t last long nor do they work nearly as well as this tape.

A relative recommended this to me & at first I wanted to talk ugly using it but then I read to use a knife to cut. It works great! Do recommend. Only reason I didn’t give it 5 stars is it is hard to cut.

I have two area rugs that travel more than me. We are talking major trip and fall hazards. These were replacement rugs that were purchased to replace two other nonskid rugs that were not safe. I tried the nonskid pads under the rugs, which were useless. I saw this on Amazon and ordered it. My husband reported good luck with it on job sites. I cut 2-3 inch squares for all four corners. I used scissors, but the tape stuck to the scissors. An box cutter blade was only slightly better, but the adhesive comes off the cutting surfaces with Goof Off. This stuff is strong and immediately stuck my nonskid area rug to textured luxury vinyl flooring. It appears to be holding well. I have no idea how it will come up, but other reviewers indicate it is not a problem to take the rug up and does not leave residue?!?! I will try and add to my review if there are problems with this tape, but I am very optimistic! ****Back to update review (12/16/24) this tape provided death grip on our area rugs with a nonskid back...I was able to reposition one of my little entry rugs; on the second rug the tape pulled the rug fibers thru the back of the nonskid rug, essentially killing it in that spot. I just have to be prepared for the death of the first rug when I go to move it for cleaning or repositioning. I am still impressed with this tape, it held the rug securely and didn't leave residue on the floor. I will now look for a small entry rug without the non-skid feature or a HEAVY entryway matt that will not travel. The area rugs have to be very low so the door can pass over them.

Very sticky, excellent hold, thin and no bulges in rug, reasonably easy to clean from solid surfaces (wood and tile floors). This is my third roll—lots of rugs. Last project was an outdoor rug on a screen-enclosed porch with a tendency to curl up on the edges. Problem solved. Downside? Thin and sticky, hard to cut with scissors. Directions recommend using a knife. Better: Save a piece of backing paper. The paper is pulled from the underside of the tape and attached to the floor. The top then has backing paper but the underside does not. Cover the exposed sticky surface with a piece of backing paper where the cut is to made. Use scissors to cut through the tape covered top and underside with backing paper. The scissors cut easily.

I have waited for the day I felt strongly enough about something to review and today is the day! So basically I have the worlds longest carpet runner, ok well that’s a stretch (see what I did there) but it’s long! It is a boneless runner too which blah, never again. This thing is way too flimsy for my two dogs. Anytime they would run in, they would run into it and it would scrunch and slide into oblivion. I currently have two hand size pieces of tape on just the front. Each corner. ONLY TWO! And not only does it keep the runner perfectly in place. I have accomplished the dogs smoothing out the wrinkles from said running into it with the tape being only in the front. *See Video. Guys, I tried two other top rated tapes and all the sticky rug things. This is the one! Now will it eventually leave residue on my LVP.. don’t know, don’t care! Because it only takes a couple of pieces to do what you need so I will deal with that later. Buy it. Just buy it.

This double sided carpet tape was perfect! I used it to take a nonslip pad under three rugs. It is super sticky and holds. I would definitely purchase this again.

Buon nastro che non lascia residui sulle.piastelle. sul mio tappeto però devo dire che lo devo cambiare una volta al mese che dopo si stacca

I’ve used this on a few types of rugs and it’s awesome!

Ziet er inderdaad niet heel sticky uit en je krijgt het makkelijk van het parket af. Echter, werkt het niet en heb je er dus vrij weinig aan

I purchased this carpet tape to secure the corners of two carpet runners in my home (was constantly tripping over a curled-up corner of one carpet). As soon as I applied the tape, both carpets remained securely in place, corners no longer curling. I’ve applied this over laminate flooring, so haven’t tested to see how easy it is to remove the tape yet, but the flooring installer did assure me that it’s easily done if/when needed. So far, I’m very happy with the product. ***Edited to add: The front door of my house opens directly into my (tiny) living room. In order to protect my carpet from the constant in-and-out high traffic, I use a protective throw mat with a rubber backing to go in front of the door. Unfortunately, because that mat sits directly on the living room carpet, every time you step on it, the mat shifts. A lot. This was causing a tripping hazard, and I tried everything I could think of to prevent it. Nothing worked. Then I had an idea…what if I used some of this double-sided tape to adhere carpet to carpet? I was skeptical, but gave it a try. And it works! I applied the tape under the throw carpet about a month ago, and it has remained solidly in place the entire time; no shifting at all. Quite an improvement over having to readjust the moving carpet 3-4 times a day. All this said, I have no idea if the stickiness of the tape where it adheres to the living room carpet will affect the carpet long-term. But since I have no intentions of ever removing the protective throw mat anyway, I’m not worried about that. The tape resolved my ongoing fight with that mat quickly and easily. And to me, it’s made this product worth its weight in gold.

Superó mis expectativas , la adherencia es perfecta a la superficie de la alfombra y el piso. Cumple su funcion
