Ribbed Carpet Tile - Designer Reviews

Our project was rather simple - my wife and I were looking for a solution that: > Would provide a surface where office chairs rolled smoothly without the need for a plastic chair mat > Would be easier to find and vacuum small items usually stuck in carpet, such as staples for example > Would provide some level of sound absorbing, as opposed to a bare wood floor > Would be easy to replace sections as needed, as opposed to replacing all the carpet in the office. As you may know, in a home office scenario, most of the carpet will never be touched. So why have to replace areas that don't ever wear? These tiles have so far proven to provide us with all of the goals we set out to meet, and at a very reasonable cost - unlike carpeting. We are not only pleased with the product, but also impressed that a company such as you has personally reached out for feedback. By the way - the representative I spoke to at the time of placing the order was also a good start to an excellent customer experience, she was very helpful.

I installed the ribbed carpet tile on a less than desirable floor we put down in our basement. The floor was popping up and was a tripping hazard. I was looking for an inexpensive solution rather than tearing this old floor up. I came across Rubber Flooring's carpet tiles and discovering that I could cover the area for under $400 I took a chance. It's been 2 months and so far my husband and I are pleased with the results.

We were very pleased with our purchase of these carpet tiles. They are rather thin, but that is what we were expecting, for the price. We used them in our basement, which is a very uneven mix of old tile and cement, and they worked beautifully to hide imperfections in the leveling. The adhesive strips worked just right to stick on a bumpy and in some places, rough, surface.

Installed over concrete in screen porch in Mesa Az,Easy to install, easy to vacuum. Great accent for an area rug. Shipped quick.

I recently ordered some of your ribbed, peel and stick carpet tiles. I am extremely happy with my order and was able to cosmetically improve our downstairs bathroom. We are currently renting a house and the linoleum green tile in that bathroom was horrible. With the peel and stick carpet tiles, we not only improved the look but the floor is no longer freezing. Have to say, I'm 100% satisfied with my purchase and finished product. It was a very easy DIY project I was able to complete despite recently suffering a broken leg. I'll definitely be a repeat customer.

Although the tiles are very thin and lightweight, they look good after installation. The light weight makes cutting and installation easy. The adhesive seems to be holding up well so far. I installed on concrete in a basement room and I am very pleased with the results.

I needed an office floor covered fast and cheap, and this was the best deal I could find either locally or on the internet. Got two colors to do a checkerboard, and they arrived very quickly. They went down really easily, but while I was laying them I was skeptical about their durability. I was proven wrong by these things! I have had the floor down for about 6 weeks, with 8-10 hours of average rolly-chair action (and I am by no means petite), and it shows virtually no signs of wear. It is soft enough on my bare feet (work from home), looks great, easy to install, and incredibly durable...and the price is great making it an incredible value overall. Bottom line if you are interested enough in this product to be reading this review, you should get it...I was unable to find a better deal and the quality is awesome! And rubberflooringinc was easy to deal with and fast to ship...thank you!

These carpet tiles worked great in our sunroom. We laid the tiles right over our ceramic tile. Easy to cut - just used scissors. They've been in for a few days now and are not lifting. They are very thin, but work great for our needs. Kids aren't slipping on the tile after getting out of the pool and are thin enough that they dry out fast after the kids sit on them in their wet bathing suits. We bought the bark colored tiles and love them! Hope they last!

For my installation I used 3 different colors of the ribbed carpet tiles in my living room. This was my first installation of carpet tiles. Overall I am very pleased with the results. The colors I used were black, blue, and gunmetal grey in a weaving pattern. I chose carpet tiles over conventional carpet because we have 3 pets that unfortunately have an occasional accident and it's not too difficult to replace a single tile if stain can't be removed. Only negative was that the grey tiles were consistently 1/8″ bigger than the blue and black tiles in both X and Y direction, making installation a little more tedious. Tiles were easy to cut using a straightedge and sharp carpenters knife. I have sent a picture to reviews@flooringinc.com

We installed the carpet tiles on our enclosed porch. So far it has survived a baby shower for my daughter with 40 guests and a small dance party with my teenage son. It still looks great.

I purchased 22 cases of Gunmetal peel & stick ribbed carpet tiles to cover approximately 740 sqft. I ordered the tiles on 11/29/16 and they arrived 12/8/16. Installation seemed simple; I followed the directions and lined the tiles up using the arrows on the back of the tile keeping them all going the same way. The first two boxes went down somewhat easily, although I did notice that every now and then I'd find a tile that was very slightly smaller or larger than the rest or a tile had less glue on the back. Then I started on the third box and got four tiles down before I noticed they were a totally different shade than the other tiles already in place. I started to look at the tiles and found that the arrows on the back needed to point in the opposite direction for them to match in color. I could no longer lay them down all in the same direction; I had to check each box and determine which way the tile needed to be laid, not following the arrows on the back. Out of 15 boxes of tiles I've had the problem with 4 boxes. The majority seemed to follow the arrows on the back, but the problem boxes needed to be reversed to match. I also found that sometimes the glue would come off with the backing paper, leaving large spots on the tile with no glue. I didn't find this to be a huge problem because the tiles had enough glue around the borders to keep them down, but it's obviously not the best situation. Overall I'm satisfied with the tiles; they are inexpensive and pretty easy to install, but from my experience you have to pay attention so you don't get shade variations throughout the floor. Quality control seems to be lacking a bit, but like they say you get what you pay for. In the end I'd recommend the tiles for a cheap easy floor covering.

I have to say I was a little hesitant to purchase the tile because the samples are just so small you really can't tell what the product is going to look like when it's down. I'm extremely glad a went ahead and made the purchase. The tile is good quality and perfect for the basement. I should have done it sooner. I'm converting the basement into my own Pittsburgh Steelers Man Cave. The black tile looks great with the yellow walls. The tile was easy to apply and cutting it to shape when needed was relatively easy. The only small complaint (very small) was that some of the tile didn't stick well. This was easily fixed with some double sided tape. Overall I'm extremely pleased with the tile. I'll be purchasing a few more boxes soon to finish the job.

I purchased this product to convert our garage to a rec room. I was a little concerned about how light it was when it was delivered but it has worked out very well and made a huge difference in the space. The only challenge with the installation was in removing the backing on the grey tiles. One line of adhesive on the edge was so strong that it didn't want to release the cellophane. This was only a problem on the grey tiles, not the black. When the struggle was over the the adhesive came off with the cellophane. However, the tiles still secured well to the floor and I have not had any problems with them coming loose, even while vacuuming.

Thank you so much!!!!! So it's definitely not like padded carpet, but I mean wow, it fit together excellently and stuck down well and it looks absolutely remarkable. Budget beauty!

I ordered these carpet tiles as an alternative to buying a rug in a high traffic area of our house. We have 18″ x 18″ ceramic tile so laying the carpet tiles over them was extremely easy! We have had them for about 3 months now and they look just as good (and adhere just as well) as when we placed them. We have a 70 lb dog that loves to run around the house and even that has not dislodged any of the tiles. I ordered the ″bark″ color which hides stains very well....My husband spilled coffee on one of the tiles a few weeks ago and I could not find the stain after 5 minutes. My main tip is that you need a good quality vacuum because the texture of the ribbed tiles tends to cling to lint and pet hair like its life depends on it.

I had an ugly, dirty linoleum tiled floor that I needed to cover up and these tiles were an affordable solution. The tiles are lightweight but not flimsy and most important of all, they were all the same size, making them very easy to lay down. They can be easily cut with a good scissors. While the tiles are thin and can't be called ″plush″ the difference they made to the look and feel of the room was amazing. I scattered a few area rugs on top of them and the room now looks great. They were a perfect, affordable DIY solution.

When we first opened the first box of tile, I thought ″You must be kidding!″. The carpet sat in the garage for a couple of weeks - I guess I was just putting off being disappointed. It looked so flimsy! Have started putting it down in a fixer upper vacation home on the sun porch. It really looks pretty good. Looking forward to getting this down and ordering more.

I got these carpet tiles for a shed that I'm turning into a 'she-shed'. I wanted something durable and good looking that was cheap. This fit the bill. I was able to get the whole thing done in a few hours - about 250 sq ft. It was easy to cut the pieces for the edges of the floor. They are fairly thin, but that's perfect for what I want. There is some slight varying color to some of them (I got the grey), but it didn't bother me and you really can't tell. I used them with the ribs all going in the same direction.

Our lower level family room had plush carpet and thick padding when we bought the house last year. We did a total remodel and had to work around our regulation pool table. The cost to dismantle and reassemble it is almost the cost of the carpet. By using the carpet tiles, I was able to jack up the table enough to remove the old carpet (cut around each leg), and install the new carpet tiles. The carpet tiles went down very easily and looks good installed. Like some other reviewers, I found the carpet to be thinner than I expected but the foot feel is fine and it should be quite durable. Customer service was excellent and delivery was prompt.

I just needed a little carpet for the floor of my walk-in closet. It didn't need to be plush, just needed to cover the paint splattered floor. These carpet tiles are perfect. I put them in myself (63 year old female)and they are a beautiful color (blue). Plus, they are very reasonably priced! I am very pleased with my purchase!
