I have hardwood floors-says these have grippers on bottom and don't slip-is this correct?

I never used it, but the cheap fabric did have little (very little) rubber dots on them that make help with traction control. I returned it when I found out that it was composed 100% of cardboard. But, it is very lightweight! :)

I just put it on my hardwood floor, and I think the animal's weight would push it. But if it's propped up against something, it should stay put. I currently keep it on the rug against my bed.

The "grippers" are just cloth. That said, the bottom is solid, so you could pick up a piece of foam rubber at Hobby Lobby or Walmart for less than a buck and glue it to the bottom. I never bothered to do that and it doesn't slide around too much on our floor (also wood). We have a 50-pound corgi and a 75-pound hound dog that both use these steps.

The pads do not slip, though I have linoleum/vinyl flooring. Your dog should be fine. I've used pads successfully for a couple years for my 3 dogs and will continue to use them. Just don't walk on them yourself.

I have wood floors as well and I have had no slipping at all with this product.

I put mine on carpet and it grips, not slips. It is plastic with a hollow back. I would be concerned that it would slip if it were on a wood floor.

They tend to be slippery for me and I am in my seventies. To fix this I bouught several very cheap throw rugs from walmart and lay the pads on top of these rugs. Works perfectly.

Hold rug? No- these pads keep my furniture from slipping when you get up or sit down on furniture that is on hardwood floors. My sofa has the front legs on my floor rug but the back legs are on the wood flooring. These keep those back legs from slipping at all! Hope this helps.

They do slip around. I put a dish towel underneath to keep it from slipping.

They are adjustable in height. To keep them from sliding on my wood floor, I put rubber furniture pads under each one which works well

I have a laminate floor, and there is no slipping whatsoever. I imagine it would be the same for wood. The item itself is pretty heavy.

They offer a smooth and textured surface. I bought the textured mat and no it is not slippery.

It does come with pads you can put onto the fence so it doesn't slip. For how I am using it, I didn't need them. (I do have hardwood floors)

I haven't noticed them being slippery, the probably do some but I have been very happy with them for the price.

Yes they have some grip. I do stack them together for a steeper angle and they work fine with no slipping.

The feet have plastic caps on them. I would say that they are safe to use on hardwood floors.

No, they have a non-slip coating on both top & bottom. I've experienced the design to be very stable.

I use these on my top of my wood cutting board and on my formica countertops. No slipping issues at all.

We also have some hardwood, and neither of our dogs have ever had any issues with traction or sliding. It really is a great product. Hope this is helpful & happy walking!Maybe Joe is applying too much if he's experiencing slippage, not positive, just a thought.
