Excellent! Well worth the investment.
Great product! I bought the rug pad for my dining room. Normally I am a bit frugal, and would not have spent this amount of money on a rug pad, but then again I had just spent $1600 on refinishing the oak hardwoods in my house. One hundred bucks seemed a minor cost to protect my investment.
My point? Well worth the cost. Not only does my rug stay in place, but it seems to be water proof. I don't know that I would allow liquids to stay on my rug, but it did protect the floor from some minor spills during the holidays.
If you are looking for pad that is undetectable, don't buy this product. The pad is substantial enough where, particularlly if you have a thin rug, the rug has an 'edge'. People kept kicking up the edge of the carpet, because it didn't lay flat against the floor. It was an easy fix. I trimmed off about an inch or so all the way around. I haven't had any further problems.

Yea, it's thick
This pad is indeed very thick and will keep a rug in place, maybe even through a hurricane. On the down side, because it is so thick you may have to do a little trimming. If it's too close to the edge of some rugs (particularly thinner ones), it will be all-to-visible from the sides. Too far from the edges and you may get a "shadow" effect wherein the edges of the rug droop down and the outline of the whole pad becomes noticeable from the top.

Best Carpet Pad Ever!
These carpet pads are by far the best I have ever owned. We purchased several of these for our larger area rugs and they have been great. They not only keep the rugs in place, but they provide ample padding underfoot as well us uphold the integrity of the rugs themselves. Also, due to their thickness, I never have to worry about a spill soaking through the rug and pad and damaging the floor beneath. They are definitely worth the extra cost!
