At first, I wondered how it was going to stay in place on the floor because it stuck to my shoes and did not appear to have a good way to stick to the floor. I just did not see the outer film (both sides) right away, but once that was removed, it stayed in place alright. I also for some reason did not realize there would be multiple in the pack I ordered, which makes me feel better about spending so much money!I only just got mine and set it down today, but I’m really excited and hope it helps keep my floors clean, which will help my allergies and also with tracking in germs and viruses and such to keep my cat and myself healthy and happy :) I moved my Muddy Mat just outside the door and have this just inside. I also have a amount for removing snow and such outside because I live in Michigan. So I will have a three step process to get in my apartment and I feel like once things get going it’ll be really good! Inspired by other pet owners in the reviews, I might try it by the litter box as well. I currently have another muddy mat over there, but we’ll see!
