This is for hardwood floors. You can not use it for the carpeted floors. Overall it is a really great product. I purchased this product for my home office. The only problem I had was about the shipping. It comes open item. It was extremely dirty. Manufacturer needs to find a way to solve this problem such as a sticker to keep it clean during shipment which can easily be removed by the buyer. It took me a good amount of time to clean it up. Once clean it was a great solution to protect my wood floors. I gave four start for the fact that I had to spend time to clean it up.
