Do not buy unless you want it to sound like clown shoes squeaking every time you walk on it. I dont even think I can pad it to get it to stop in any way since it still has to make contact with the floor and the sound comes from the squish. Can’t return because I had to trim it down as the size wasn’t quite the same as my rug. Don’t do it, unless you want it for a funhouse. Then definitely do it.
