LAMINET Grey Non-Slip Washable Stair Covers for Carpeted Stairs 20'L x 30"

Arrived in time. Was surprised at how thin it actually was but that is what I needed. Very pliable. Have it covering the Berber carpet on the stairs heading to the basement because those get incredibly filthy. I'm naturally slow going down a set of stairs so it is good as-is for me, but if I had busy kids racing up and down those stairs I'd be looking for a way to secure it at each step. Looking forward to seeing how it responds to being tossed in a washing machine.

This product completely failed to adhere to the carpet on my stairs. Indeed its lack of adhesive quality makes it both dangerous and most unsafe as it crumples and creates folds with every step. It would be utterly unsafe for any elderly or young people to use. The product looks NOTHING LIKE the picture. Sadly, a waste of money.

Se puede manipular muy bien pero es demasiado delgado y permite el paso del frío de la escalera.

Years ago, I bought this carpet protector for my mom, who was concerned that the new cream-colored carpet on the stairs of her split-level ranch would quickly become grimy with everyday traffic in and out. This turned out to be a great solution. The fabric is unexpectedly thin, with a slight terry-like nap on the upper surface and foam on the underside. The foam grips carpet and tile extremely well in my experience, and the thinness of the material allowed it to conform neatly to the stairs, without any hazardous wrinkles or folds. Because a split ranch has two half-flights of stairs, my mother was easily able to cut the runner in half to address both sets. The cut edge was clean and there was nothing to unravel. The thinness was also an advantage when it came to cleaning, as it was easily picked up and thrown into a standard washing machine. She left the runners on the stairs permanently, or at least until she left the house. She gave me the runners when she moved out and I washed them and stored them. A year later, I found myself in a house with light carpets and an endless stream of contractors coming through with heavy boots and dirty soles. I remembered the runners, and laid them from the entrance and through the living room every time I had work done in the house. Two weeks ago, I felt compelled to look for these again and buy more so I could extend the coverage all the way down the hall. They were hard to find, but I finally found one vendor on Amazon and purchased them immediately. I was so happy they were still being manufactured! These are truly hard-working, humble little runners; lightweight and easy to drop into place when needed, readily picked up again, wash up beautifully, compact to store, and the the protection they have provided my carpet and tile has been invaluable. My obvious initial concern - especially as the material was so thin - was durability. I have to admit I was not impressed when I originally touched them, as they simply felt fragile. But the runners I bought my mother are over 15 years old now, and after about 7 years of full-time use in her home and 8 years of periodic temporary use in mine, they still look like new. They have never punctured or torn, and dirt and grime wash out of them easily. I am so glad to have them, and they are a relatively inexpensive insurance policy for your expensive carpet.

maybe 2 sided tape will work.
