  • Worked great under my engineered hardwood floors
Size: 630 Sq. Ft.
This was the best deal I could find for a vapor barrier under my engineered hardwood floors. I have no idea if it’s helping with the sound or anything else, but it was the least expensive version I could find for something that you will never see.. It was easy to roll out And had sticky edges So it could easily connect to the adjoining pieces. It just doesn’t make sense to buy a more expensive version for something that goes under your floors. If there is a major water spill, I’m confident that if the water sleeps through my floors, this barrier will Help prevent the water from R@reaching the subfloor. ... show more

Haven’t used yet but feels strong and right amount of backing for what I need.

  • Great Product and Unbeatable Price
Size: 630 Sq. Ft.
Can't stress enough how happy I am with this product. Great performance and quality. Saved roughly $400 from buying at the big "Orange" home store. I would highly recommend using this! I have installed 5 floating floors and this is the first time I used this product. Any floating floor I every do will be with this going forward. The product is fantastic. Very easy to work with. The overlap adhesive worked well for me and I had minimal mess from the white balls. Used household scissors to cut this. Installed the cheapest floor I could find (in stores) on top of this. It takes all of the echo/hollow sound out of it. As well as gives nice cushion and warmth. This application went right over a poured concrete floor. The finished piece compared to the bare concrete was noticeably warmer. ... show more

  • Prep the floor, Lay out the padding in the entire room, seal the cut edges with tape if you can.
Size: 630 Sq. Ft.
This product is delicate. I would NOT recommend you stand it on end. Plan the cuts and the position of the pad. Make a layout diagram if necessary. Have space to cut the pad, as measuring it on the fly is difficult. The styrofoam balls scatter easily from the cuts you make. Sweep and vacuum the debris regularly. Seal any tears in the very tin green thin plastic topside as they occur. Painters tape or the red tape for padding will do. Protect the pad if you will be walking over it to any extent. Take your shoes off if you are working on this material. I would not recommend you have it rising up at the edges. Keep it flat. I stapled it down a bit. that helped to keep it from sliding. Before you start, understand how the sticky tape edge works. Once you are rolling it's hard to go back. Remove any cut pieces and bag them. You may need them later, and they will just create a snowstorm of white balls across the work area if you don't. I like the product, I don't know if it is exactly what I need but it is reasonably priced. My 12mm clickish Laminate went down easily over this pad, but I had to constantly clear away plastic balls. Again the thing the pros know is how to effectively prep and just move on. DIY guys should understand your project is often filled with 'UhhOhh!'s as prep falls behind the desire to 'do something'. It is not always the product's fault when we screw up. I'll buy it again if I can not find another more 'thermal retaining' pad at a similar price. ... show more

  • Easy installation
Size: 630 Sq. Ft.
This was an easy product to install. Found that the small white ball issue when cutting that some reviews stated was minimized when using scissors instead of a utility knife. Seems to be quiet and warm. Great value at half the price of the flooring stores.

  • No mess! Works just fine.
Size: 630 Sq. Ft.
I have absolutely no skin in the game, but thought the attached pics from my install job site might help dispel some of the concerns re: the styrofoam being all over the place. Note these pics were taken without any kind of clean up. So judge for yourself if this is really a big issue. (I almost didn’t buy after reading all those comments about styrofoam all over the place). I would use this underlayment again. ... show more

  • Great product!
Size: 630 Sq. Ft.
I wasn't quite sure what to expect after reading the mixed reviews on this product, but I decided to give it a try because it was such a great value. I purchased 2 630sq ft rolls & we've used just about every inch of it. To the people who said it was messy when you cut it, if you use scissors instead of a razor knife, there's very little mess. I also found that moving my feet in certain ways while standing on it or grazing it accidentally with the mallet made small holes in it. However, a small piece of masking or painters tape solved that issue. I'd recommend this to anyone looking for underlayment that helps absorb sound & keep your floors insulated, rather than simply having a piece of foam between your subfloor & finished floors. ... show more
