Although I'm not a drummer, I needed a carpet to use when I play guitar live, for two main purposes: to give a professional look to the stage when I play, doesn't matter where, and to protect my stuff since I can place all on a cleaned surfaces. The bottom side of the carpet is made of rubber, so that protects the pedals and whatever is on the carpet from the humidity of the ground, e.g. when playing in a wet stage (I had to play many times after a rain and the stage was really wet).
I even used the carpet to protect my things from a sudden rain when we were about to play outside and a sudden typical summer storm started.
It is so nice that it looks good in the living room. And honestly, it is way cheaper than any standard carper sold in any furniture store.
I love it
