No-Slip Ice Carpet Review

Just received this ice carpet, and the weather is such that I haven't been able to test it yet.It does look like a fairly good product, and has little odor -- always a nice touch. It also doesn't seem to shed much like many door mats, which can be messy. I can't verify that it will not tend to slip on ice, since even rubberized products, when cold, may be risky. I'm going to err on the positive side and give it 4 stars. The reason for the early review however is to caution buyers that this picture on the Amazon site is quite misleading. My impression was (from the picture) that I would be getting a long strip of something like jute doormatting . . . i.e., with a positive tread like straw. What this product actually is, is flat and thin, and somewhat smooth ... very "pressed." Most catalogs I've seen this in have included a painted picture, not a photo. With the picture, you really can't tell for sure what it's like. But this Amazon photo that has been obviously retouched is quite misleading -- it looks purposely like a jute doormat material. Not happy about that ...Hopefully the performance will be good regardless. If not, I'll supplement this review later on in the winter.

Just place over ice or snow-and away you go! Get out of the house without shoveling, salting or scraping! Rugged woven fibers grip to ice, snow and your shoes! Just place on walkway or stairs for improved traction even in the worst conditions. Flexible in sub-freezing temperatures. Use it every winter. 10'L x 18"W..

Ice Carpet (Set of 2) Mats Walkway Home Safety Review

I bought two sets of these based on others' good reviews. When I got them, I wasn't sure how useful they would be for my application for older dogs going down a slope with pavers, across deck, etc. The material is similar to thin cut cocoa mat and they come rolled up, so they didn't lie flat at first, but once they get wet with rain/snow, they will lie perfectly flat and are great. Before these, my oldest dog had been having a terrible time with slipping on the ice and wet wood deck this winter and my younger dog also slipped and fell running across the deck; both are doing well on these. I would highly recommend them!
