YYXLIFE Double Sided Carpet Tape for Area Rugs & Hardwood Floors, 2" x10YD | Removable Rug Tape, Residue-Free, Heavy Duty Adhesive, Non-Slip Anti-Curling Floor Tape for Mats, Carpets, Tile, White

Update as of 8/2/25: I've just raniut of my 3rd roll and I'm ordering another. I will say if you can get a pair of non-stick scissors, or use an agent that will discourage sticking like powder, lite lube, or even oil, it will be easier to cut or even use razors to cut it. It would be nice if this tape were perforated for easy tearing, while still allowing for customization of the tape piece itself. And I recently did have an issue with trying to reposition the tape this time, as it started pulling up a vinyl tile piece. But it can be easily removed with oil or soap and water. I purchased and received as gifts loose rugs with no thick or rubber backing, with silicone beading on one set. However, when I would go to try to vacuum either, even with the hose--it was tiresome and flung dust and debris in the air. I tried on tape and though it worked on my Dollar Tree pet mats (the small, rubber bottomed ones with sayings on them), it did nothing for the backless ones. I have a Shark vac, and if you own one you know the suction power it has. With my back issues, I was determined to find a carpet tape that held on for dear life lol. THIS ONE IS IT!! I just bought a 2nd roll, and have been letting all know who have issue with their carpets moving to try this one out! St about 1-11/2I in. wide, t is a thin, durable carpet tape that does come off the floor with minor force (i have vinyl floors) and the rugs with ease. I can say the other pulled up the tile lol, but that's no fault of that tape. As someone who was able to INSTANTLY vacuum our the throw carpets with ease (I could sense my vacuums defeat lol), and now don't have to hand vac them, or shake the off to attempt to get all of the diet out of rug (no vac is perfect, but it's much cheaper easier to clean when you can enjoy the process, and not dread it!) Awesome tape, and highly recommened!! Note: It says to use a knife to cut the tape, but I found that my scissors worked just fine, and even stuck less and was easier to cut the tape with. Just have a dedicated use for them, like office, or workshop. Though the adhesive does remove fairly easy with soap, to be save I wouldn't use any scissors that come into contact w/food ;)

**To save anyone reading this some time, this review is about how to get this off a carpet mostly... Great Sticky Product though! With that out of the way... I got a new rug for the living room to go on top of the existing carpeted floor but the rug kept "sliding forward" towards the entertainment center even though the side furthest away from the entertainment center is underneath the legs of the sofa/recliner where I sit. It seems to creep forward due to sitting/standing-up in the sofa and the reclining motion. After the 3rd day the rug is bunching up against the entertainment center. After moving it back its bunched up again after day 3. I looked up "double sided tape to hold carpet to carpet" on Amazon and I made the mistake and only briefly glanced at reviews and the ones I read said something about "it holds carpet to carpet, works great, and is easy to come off, no residue". I missed the ones about its very, very hard to remove. After peeling back the paper and putting it on the carpet I realized this would NOT be easy to come off. I re-read the Amazon reviews, and well, hindsight is 20/20..... If this stayed on the carpet with weight on top over time I think this stuff might only be able to be cut off with a razor taking a lot of carpet fiber with it. I decided to remove it and looked online for the best method and I found some people used oil/grease remover with a brush with very mixed results. Some tried using a clothes steamer again with mixed results. I did find one guy using brown packing paper laid on top of the tape (sans rug on top) and using a iron for ironing clothes on very low heat to press on top of the paper, but to keep moving back and forth, not leaving it in one space for long (kind of like ironing clothes) and peeling back the brown paper and the sticky residue comes off the carpet and sticks on the brown paper. I did this and it worked exactly like the video. I kept moving the iron back and forth holding the brown paper with one hand slowly lifting and all of it came off (took about 8-10 minutes for a 12 foot strip), EXCEPT for an invisible super thin layer of stickiness. I have not removed that but instead laid the rug on top where it was originally going to go and hopefully this residue will hold it. When that rug is removed some adhesive will still be on the carpet which anything walking/rolling on top will over time leave a track. IMO the remaining adhesive will only come off using some type of adhesive remover or paint/oil/gas remover type product.

This rug tape was a game changer for our living room. We have a large dog and two young children. Every time they would run through the living room, our rug would slide about a foot. We purchased this rug tape thinking that it might help a little, but that it wouldn't hold up against our family. We were wrong. This rug tape is very strong. Our rug never moved AT ALL from the time we installed it to nearly a year later when we rolled it up to move. The tape did not ruin the floors either - which was surprising given its strength. I can't recommend this tape enough. Easy to install and incredibly effective.

Wow! This works amazing! I just wish it was easier to peel the top layer of paper off after it’s been put into place. Your rugs aren’t going anywhere with this! I layered a strip between the rug and the rug pad, and then another small strip on the rug pad to the tile floor. I only used it on the corners and part of the high traffic areas. Omgggg…this tape is good and it’s strong!

Within minutes after being delivered, the curl in my rug was fixed! It took longer to open the box than it did to apply the tape. Placing the tape down and then peeling off the protective seal was an easy process and corrected the problem swiftly. I had tried melting ice cubes, putting a heavy object on the curled area but nothing would get the kink out. This was such a quick fix to a rug that has been folded over for at least 5 years. The tape does not show or leave an high spot, lays flat and holds strong. Happy with this purchase.

This carpet tape works great for my project. I am using it to make fabric stickers. It is a fun way to use a utilitarian item. I found it easiest to cut by using an old rotary cutter with a piece of the backing paper on the sticky side, this keeps the blade from gumming up.

Very sticky but easy to install. I had to readjust the placement and it came up easy enough and was still sticky well. It keeps my rug in place and is safer for my kids than having the rug sliding around. It's a nice thick material but you can't see it under the rug. Would recommend!

The only way this tape can be called removable is in the sense that you will be on your hands and knees scraping and applying adhesive remover in multiple layers to get it off. I will say the rug underneath never budged, even through multiple people coming and going, dogs playing on it, and vacuuming. It also didn’t stick to the rug at all when I pulled it off but it was absolutely one of the most difficult adhesives I’ve ever removed. It took three single bladed razors and three layers/applications of adhesive remover to get it off. It gets a 5 for adhesion and a 1 for ease of removability.
