Even though this states it was for hardwood floors, I have it on my area rug. It does not slip or slide. It is great for my area rug too. My office chair, glides swiftly across it. It does not pull my chair like some chair mats do. I highly recommend this. It also wipes up easily. It does not leave any scuff marks, or leaves any marks on the floor or rugs. ￼￼￼￼
