Clear Stair Treads Non Slip for Wooden Steps Indoor with Roller[15 Pcs 32''x 4''] - Pre-Cut Anti Slip Strips & Stair Runners - Peel and Stick Treads - Safety for Elder, Children & Pets by EdenProducts

We bought these nearly a year ago and honestly mostly forgot about them. They got put in a closet and I would think of them now and then as our older fella slipped and gingerly walked down our wooden stairs. unfortunately we live in a split level so there is no way around him going down stairs, and he's nearly 70 lbs so while my husband can carry him on bad days, when its just him and me he has to just do the best he can.This weekend we said we HAVE to put those treads on the stairs. My husband put them on today. He doubled up so we only did to the front door which is mid-stairway, we will need a second box to do the lower stairs but my pup doesn't really go down there. He just went out to go play and he walked down the stairs COMPLETELY normal!I could cry! I haven't seen him do that in a couple years. If you are hemming and hawing, pull the trigger. Totally worth it. I am so so pleased.We did unroll them and put a tote on top to flatten them out overnight before using them just to try to prevent the edges from rolling up, but they seem really solid.

worked great

Item exactly as described. Packed well. Shipped promptly.

Pros:- Easy to install using the roller tool- Good but not extreme/abrasive level of traction- Flexible enough to stretch as it’s applied, making it easier to align and avoid wrinkles- The frosted glass texture looks pretty good in person — just noticeable enough to know where to step, but doesn’t make nice hardwoods stairs look too tacky or commercial.- Fairly discrete- Roller tool is well made for the task- Easy to peel treads from their backing- Large enough to cover the tread/lip of each step in my homeCons:- Clear surface makes bubbles below more obvious and somewhat visible- Doesn’t include many or any spare treads depending on the size of your staircase- Adhesive backing is only non-stick on one side (issues with that described below).Pro/con depending on preference:- Doesn’t cover much depth of a step in the staircase; enough where you need it and more likely to still fit smaller steps, but some users may want more coverage.- Adhesive is strong enough to not peel at the edges easily, but some people report it will affect hardwood finish when removed (can always refinish true hardwood, though)- Texture is rough enough to hide my attempts to poke pinholes to release tiny air bubbles, but rubbery enough that those holes don’t seem to do much.Overall Impression:Overall, great quality and exactly what I’d expected.Installation was fairly easy as long as you’re careful about bubbles.I’m a little concerned about any damage to the hardwood finish when they’re removed, but not too worried if the hardwood just needs a new topcoat afterwords.[Update: I was able to remove these a few years later without noticeable damage or trouble. Your mileage may vary depending on the finish of your hardwood. Unless you consult an expert, you may want to test this on an out of sight bit of flooring first if concerned.]Installation tips/issues:This is a lot like placing a screen-protector on your phone! However, these are a bit more stretchy and much bigger and more flexible.After a few I settled on the follow method: (1) fully remove the backing while holding from one end and allowing to hang vertically, (2) lift the bottom with your other hand and hold the tread over the target stair about centered, (3) bring your hands holding the ends of the tread together a few inches so that the center of it sags slightly to barely make contact with the stair at its center, (4) slowly lower both hands so the tread comes down onto the stair from that center point outward to the side, while lowering, watch the front edge to make sure you’re aligning the tread with the edge of the stair to stay parallel, (5) as the tread initially makes contact with the stair, you can still peel it up to adjust without much of an issue if it’s only just lightly made contact without any pressure. (You really do want to get them down right on the first try, though). (6) Use the roller from the center for the tread rolling outward toward each side, always making an arc outward to the edges so that you’re pushing air underneath out toward the sides and ends of the tread.My only issue was that, when one tread was peeled from the non-stick backing, it swung back and briefly made contact with the opposite side of the backing which is just regular paper. Once that happened, the tread was completely irrecoverable — like peeling a cheap price tag off a product, the paper sticks to the tread and can’t be removed (see photos). I’m now going to need to see if they sell replacement packs or purchase a whole new set just for a single step...Unfortunately, the pack was for 15 steps, and one flight of stairs here was exactly 15 steps, so the single error made it so I have to replace that single tread.When they go to all the expense of sending the nice kit with the roller and everything else, it would have been nice and sensible to include some spare treads in case of an error during installation or if one starts to peel at the edges over time. I’m sure a few extra treads would only increase the material cost per unit marginally, and it’d be pretty helpful in the maybe 1-10% of cases where something goes wrong during installation or if one or two treads eventually needs replacement.Overall, I’ve purchased these stair treads to make sure our four-legged friends don’t slip on our steps (not to mention the less sure-footed humans), and I’m pretty happy with these.[Update: These lasted fairly well. There was some minor peeling at the edges after a year or so, but that didn’t affect their functionality, just their look. Most of us are probably happier that they need occasional replacement than use an adhesive so strong it could cause damage like some. Overall, these were a good buy. Once you get the technique down, it’s super easy to just peel off a tread and replace it from a pack of spares if ever needed. Overall, it hugely reduced the slip/fall risk (people wearing socks slipped and fell on these steps before, and we were very lucky to not have had any more serious injuries). It’s hard to put a price on safety, but fortunately these were affordable, effective, easy to use, replaceable, damage-free, and fairly discrete. If you’re not sure about putting treads on your stairs, I’d strongly encourage you to use whatever kind of traction tread you can bear. Some people like the bare hardwood look, and I’ll admit that looks nice, but it looks less nice when someone slips, falls, gets bruised up or worse and lays moaning in pain as a crumpled up heap at the bottom of your beautiful staircase. I found these to be a fairly good option that really did the job well without making any of us feel they spoiled the aesthetics of the staircase.]

Quality product, easy install

I bought these is 2018 for my aging dog who was slipping going down the stairs. She sadly passed in 2020 and the stair grips maintained nicely for a couple years past her death. I was fearful of removing them because I didn’t know if they would take the finish off. With goo be gone and a spackle knife in hand I started to peel up the first one only to discover they came up with ease after 4 years. Very little residue. Stairs look perfect underneath. I’m writing this review now as I returned to buy another set for my other pup who is now in the same position with aging and slipping on stairs. Time to install a new set.

I don't write a lot of reviews, but i couldn't wait to write this one because i was so satisfied with this product and how easy it was to install. I just finished. I'd say once I figured out the plan of attack it took about a minute or so per step, easily less than 30 minutes for the 13 steps. I have a new puppy so was considering putting a carpet runner down, until I watched a couple youtube videos. and realized I would have to get pads, tack strips, get a knee kicker, etc, etc.. So started looking for no-slip step strips and the wife encouraged me to do the clear, although I had my doubts.But i will say that the strip material is just the right thickness and its really transparent. I have a clear stain/varnish on my treads and this works really well. You can tell its there, but its transparent enough that if i messed up a bit it wouldn't really stick out. I was worried this would be like putting an iphone screen cover on, because I'm a perfectionist, and inevitably i do something wrong and I mess up and get very frustrated. But this material was such that if you got off-line you can lift it a bit, re-align, and generally work it.I was a bit concerned that there were no instructions included, even though when there are I try to do things without them if possible. But what I did was just got a scrap piece of 1X6 and a strip of 1X2 on end, and backed this up against the riser. When i used that as a guide, the front of the no-slip strip was about an inch from the nose of the tread. Also found that using this as a guide on the back was good because its hard to align anything on the front rounded edge. I was able to peel about 1/3 of the backing off (the backing was perfect strength too) and kind of smooth the strip along the guide with my hand, then i'd do another 3rd, and then the last third in the same way. Like I said if i got a little off line i could work it back easily without any buckling. I found if i tried to do it in halves it made the process harder. Then I took the roller and sort of worked it from the middle out side to side and then front to back, for the most part. I will say this, using that roller was as they say "strangely satisfying". I'd be curious if anyone else has done it noticed the same thing. It really worked the strip into the wood and you felt like you were doing something with the tool as it was designed for.One thing I'd recommend is to use a headlamp, as lighting in a stairwell is not all that good, and kneepads help make the job more comfortable as well. All in all I give this product a SOLID 5 stars. Of course we haven't really used it yet, so I don't know how it will hold up, but I will try to revisit this review in a few weeks, or months.
