Can these pads be left permanently on furniture like sofa and lounge chairs for easy movement on a daily basis?

Personally, I would not leave them permanently. Your sofa and lounge chairs will probably slip and slide during use. These pads are for moving furniture around on a hard surface.

I had them under my heavy sofa for about 2 months we were on the process of unpacking and rearranging furniture. We finally removed them and they were just fine.

Sure. I've done that with the rug sliders, just left them under the extremely heavy couch so I could move whenever I needed to when working on a project.

I've left mine under my (heavy) futon on wood floors for a couple years now. It makes for easy moving when I need to clean. You may not like the look of it, or lighter furniture might slide too easily, but it does the job for me.

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.

Dear Karla, The pads do go back to their original shape after seating 180#, but ours haven't held more weight yet. They are very nice though, and I guess would return to their original shape after even more weight. They are a little bit smaller in size than the average chair cushion which may not be comfortable for larger folks??? I got them because they fit my card table chairs perfectly. I hope this helps.

Hello, We typically don't move the chairs that have these but I would say yes, it would move easily. I would think the only thing you would have to worry about is dirt accumulate on the cloth side of the slider. This may scratch your floor at some point.

Not really good for chairs that move around as they come unstuck, but for chairs you might try socks. I actually use both on chairs, put these on, then the socks.

Sorry to say I haven't tried, we use them to protect the chair. Also it would depend on the weight of the person. I think they can the pad seems strong enough. The pads do wash well. I hope this helps you Good luck

Not really as they give structure to the back. The pads can be removed. In fact, one of mine fell off and we had to drill another hole as the screw holes did not match up properly. I'd give this chair a C- for that and other reasons.

I have only had the chair for 1 summer season and I always put the pads away in a deck box at the end of the day. I have not seen any fading under these conditions.

I used these only on stationary furniture (bed and sofa) and don't think they would work well on moveable furniture.

Yes, I use it on my living room sofa and reclining chair all the time. Its very safe for fabric furniture.

It would NOT be safe to use these for chairs. These are designed for beds or desks which remain stationary.

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 cannot be permanently attached, but you can just leave them underneath the piece of furniture for repeat use. They are about 1/2 inch thick. But if you leave them under a heavy object they will compress nearly flat.

No, I use them in my athletic shoes and insert them between the shoe and and pad. They stay in place nicely and are much better than the felt pads the doctor gave me, not to mention a lot less expensive ($80!!) You could probably glue them in place if you had to.

I have these pads under chairs and sofa on hardwood floor and they don't move at all. I do not have them under a rug.

No, they would not be comfortable for using as a daily office chair. The pad is pretty thin, so it doesn't provide much cushion.

You wouldn't need felt pads. The bottom of the legs of the chairs are enclosed and would glide smoothly over any type of floor. The chairs would not cause any scratch marks on the floor.

Yes but it won't be as effective. Hard surfaces give a stable base that creates the movement of the cushion. A padded upholstered dining room chair will be fine , a sofa or arm chair won't work.
