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.

They should be. although I would use a chair mat. I have an older one that is clear plastic for hard surfaces, there are none of the little spikes on the bottom for carpet. The casters helped me save my chair from going to Goodwill. This was for a set of 5, Nadine.

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

I put mine on plywood (6-8 mos ago), so I can't say for sure. If memory serves me correctly, they were VERY sticky/tacky. Guessing you are talking about a flat, commercial feel carpet? I would guess they would stick, but if you are talking about very serious wear & movement by those on the squares (yoga class, day care etc), think I'd be pretty cautious....good luck!

I have one under mine but mine is on laminate flooring. If it were on carpeting, I would put something. I put 2 rubber mats, one under front and one under back.

This will likely depend on the surface upon which you place the pad. I use mine on a low-pile carpet and although the cheap (no foam, very thin) versions tend to slip a bit, these are pretty solid. Even after a very energetic song, the pads have seldom moved more than an inch or two from their original location.

The mat is pretty sturdy. I would assume it will work on pretty much any surface. I'm using it on a thick pile carpet.

No. The tiles of this mat will come apart under the pressure of your hands and whatnot and especially on the soft surface of carpet. Keep seeking stickier and thicker yoga mats.

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

I'm not sure since I use a chair mat on top of carpet. However, I think they would be okay but I don't know if the tile would be easily marked if there was dirt or grit between the caster and tile.

I use mine on carpet...no problems so far. I don't have the instructions handy to confirm that carpet is OK.

They don't work to good on carpet. I wouldn't recommend you using them on carpet.

Yes, I think they will work on carpet as well. The only problem I have found is the grip to the floor is stronger than the adhesive of the strips that sticks to the legs of the bottom of the couches. They some times come off the couch and leave marks on the floor from the adhesives. I still feel it is way better than the continuous sliding around as before. Good luck and hope I helped in any way.

I roll mine over medium thickness carpet and rugs no prob. A little rickety at first but I put epoxy all over the fittings.

This mat will stay put on carpeting, there is a strip of velcro. Place velcro side down, plus it is a heavy mat gym quality.

I use them in my barn on plywood and they have been great. I have about 15x15 feet and they never move. Very good mats.
