How will these mats perform when placed on carpet?

They do tend to shift and come apart alot. Ive remedied this by using pieces 4 inch pieces of duct tape on the back in a tic-tac toe board fashion and have not had any problems since.

I would say they are generally intended to be used on a hard surface floor where they would grip better. If putting over carpet they might tend to shift due to the nap of the carpet in the way an area rug does.

I believe carpet will quickly wear and readjust the felt. These are okay for hardwood floors, but not great. They wear unevenly and have to be replaced at least twice a year with daily use. Beware these are extremely difficult if not impossible to install on hardwood furniture.

Yes, I think they would work on top of carpet. If you were to jump on them or exercise, they may shift a bit because they won't be able to grip the floor, but if that's not an issue for you, then it should work. Our issue was just that they didn't stay locked together when used for exercising.

Not sure. Mine are on carpet but they are a tight fit and since they are one piece the whole thing would have to move in order to slip

If it's on carpet you'll be just fine! Jumping is part of DDR, and spinning, jumping while you spin... Never had the mat fly out from under me! The cheap mats with no foam will do that. These mats (I've owned five now, different platforms) are fantastic

see my review on Dec 14, 2012 in the 3 star group, I think they would have the same issues on a tile floor, in my view they are intended to slide on carpet...however other reviewers say they have used them on bare floors

They stand very well. Based on their weight, you should have no issue on carpet

Yes, they work fine on carpet or floor. If you have a few locked together on carpet, they don't slide.

Hi. I think it is designed for a flat, smooth surface. Carpet tends to be uneven, regardless of the type, especially when someone steps on it. But I have not tried it on carpet, so perhaps it can serve your purpose. The squares are pretty secure when connected, so you may give it a shot, but I don't think they will stay put.

They're about 1/4" thick. We didn't do carpet padding underneath but I think as long as the padding is tacked down well you shouldn't have any problems with it.

These will move your furniture over carpet easily. They will probably work fine on tile, but not so well over concrete floors. One underneath each corner will be smoother. Two on a side will mean you have to tack it back on forth like a sailboat.

Probably not... they are super small and so unless your carpet was flat like office carpet then they probably won't roll very well. They would work better than nothing, but a larger wheel would roll better, I think, on standard carpet.

Without some points to secure them in place they will slide on a vinyl floor. You may encounter the mat sliding forward, in which case the mat may pinch down the accelerator pedal and put you at risk of an accident. I had the accelerator pedal stick a couple times. I liked the mats though, so I added a few points of dual-lock (like super Velcro) to the bottom. I suggest using 3M Dual-Lock to keep them in place. Hasn't been an issue since. The mats do look really nice and they're very good quality. Not rubber. More like a semi-ridig, semi-soft thick plastic.

Yes, they are stable enough to be on carpet. I bought white ones, they are great except get dirty really quickly and hard to clean.

They go on carpet, just not as well. Thick loopy carpet; probably not. Flat carpet : pretty well.

I don't think it would work out. these tiles are not heavy enough to stay together on top of any sort of pile carpet.
