I ordered this to keep in place the XL "Soggy Doggy" mat (which isn't that grippy at all) on my kitchen (wood) floor - my dogs' are very messy water drinkers so I put their bowls on the microfiber dog mat with this rug pad below so that the floor doesn't get wet and rot w/o my knowledge.  I just put it down last night but I think it's the perfect solution.  Thank you, Wayfair!
