I’m now ms trip hazard having fractured my shoulder tripping over my dog’s lead. I’ve taken up rugs I loved. I’ve got sticky corner grippers from Amazon. Nothing works completely so I’m ms very cautious

The damn things never stay put do they? We have tried everything then gave up.We now just reposition them every day.

We have some grippers but they don’t really work. It helps if you can anchor the rug down with furniture.

I bought a rug to put inside my front door because I have no hallway or porch, so the carpet gets grubby. It's larger than my old one but it still seems to move around all the time!

I feel your pain. I suspect I will always have this problem...

Umm, it's a puzzle! Unless the rug is a heavy one then I suspect you are on a hiding to nothing!

You can get 'carpet tape' that may hold them down, but it's likely you'll end up with glue on your carpet?

We have two small rugs on top of a fitted will carpet and they constantly ruck up. I’ve tried a special underlay from Amazon which is supposed to prevent this happening but it hasn’t worked. Can anyone recommend an underlay you’ve used for a rug on a carpet and which stops the rug rucking up? Many thanks
