Is there any thing that keeps the pad in place?

It has a weight and a small non-adhesive backing that maintains it where you place it.

The answer is NO; there is nothing to keep it in place. First, realize that this isn't a "large" size, in my opinion, as mentioned in the ad; the standard pillow is 20" x 26", and this item is 11" x 22". Second, it isn't a casing filled with cooling material and foam as most cooling pillows are -- this has 4 small chambers: two small ones in the center, and two larger ones on the ends. This helps distribute weight so that the weight of your head does not displace all of the cooling material inside the pad. Third, if you sleep with an angled/slanted pillow, this item can roll/slide/fold down or off your pillow; my head keeps mine in place! (The one I received does not have a "rough" side, or "non-adhesive backing" as mentioned in some of the other replies to this question.) To me, it's better than not having anything to cool my head at all...While it may not seem that it helps very much, the proof can be realized if you stop using it...so it does make a difference! :)

we use it on the floor to put his feet on and it does not slip much on the carpet. It does not have any handles or straps if you are looking for that. Have not tried it in a bed as yet.

as it is wrapped for xmas, I remember it being kind of heavy, but I don't remember if there are any features that will hold it in place other than the weight of the pad.

I put it in my pillow case and then it stays in place. I bought one for a co-worker for Christmas. She is always hot. I made a slipcover with straps to hold it onto the back of her chair.

The mat has a rougher side on the back (feels like suede material) and that keeps the pad pretty well in place. My boyfriend uses the pad under his pillowcase and it stays put throughout the night very well. It's also a little heavy so that weighs it down as well (2-3 lbs).

No, the frame of the tray lifts up and you place the pad on the base (gray) and lock the pad with the frame (beige). The pad stays in place because it's locked by the tray. The pad doesn't have any adhesive.

Yes. I am very pleased with this product. The pads snap into place and stay put.

I used the universal pad for my son's knee surgery. It comes with velcro so you can tighten it up how you want it.

No. Unfortunately it is just the pad. That would have been a good idea though.

No, the one that I bought for $40 just has some padding. Works like a charm.

Great point! I have a Logitech Ultrathin Illuminated Backlit Keyboard, which has rubber non-skid pads built in. This prevents sliding. If your keyboard has none, I am sure you can purchase stick-on pads for yours at a local hardware store. The benefits of a large mousepad are worth the "user modification" of your keyboard, in my humble opinion! I hope this helps.

I suspect that the plastic on the bottom of the pad is supposed to be removed, but I left it on. That way it is easier to swivel around and adjust. I personally will stick a fitted piece of vinyl to the bottom of the pad if the plastic covering on it ever shows wear. I hope this helps.

If your furniture is heavy, it won't slip and slide when you sit on it unless you push it with a bit of effort. But, if you find it does slide, I would remove one (1) pad and just add it when you are ready to move again.

It has foam pads that hold it in place. I use it on an adjustable bed and it stays put.

My husband uses the pad and I don't find that it moves around. I like them very much.

I have had issues when the dogs are playing and run over or into the pads. In that situation the pads slide or get bunched up. But normally the pads are large and heavy enough that they stay put. There is no sticky material or non-slip material on the pads.

I put a waterproof pad on the cushion to protect it from that very problem. It works very well.

yes there is but you may want to add a little soft pad under it just to make sure

It has velcro pads you can stick on the bottom of the "feet" and that keeps it from sliding around. I like mine-no problems with shifting or moving-stays in place well. Hope that helps!

No there are no pads provided. Personally I didn't care because I do not intend to shift or slide the ping pong table top.

I, too, have not heard of a pad holder. I use these X-Large pads to put two smaller pads on to catch the overflow of my dog that always doesn't aim properly.
