            You get what you pay for, very easy to roll, but also easy to rip as you manipulate so care must be taken.

                  Which side goes up?
                  was easy to use, just rolled it out however it was rolled up and that is the way it went down. Like another reviewer, mine was splattered with a bunch of greenish colored wax.

                              Not as good as the 6 mills vapor barrier. Is just a paper.

                              Hey the description says silicone. So when I opened the package, I discovered that it is basically paper and not even particularly tough. It rips easily making it questionable that it would last the life of the flooring. Did not want to trust this product to protect my $2000 floor project. So I returned my unopened packs.

                              Crackling noise
                              Our floor drives me crazy to walk on after installing this. The floor crackles everywhere we walk. My husband said the noise would eventually go away but the floor was installed in O Tibet of 2030 and as of July 1 it’s is still crackling.

                                If I had to do it over I would have went with a better underlayment. This does the job I’m sure but it’s noisy. It’s like a paper material and you can hear it make noise when you are walking on our new flooring.

                                Product worked as expected. I did not experience the wrinkles or any tearing as others reported. 200sq feet is the the size of paper, not the size of the room that it will cover. The square footage on a box of flooring states the coverage of the flooring, contrary to the underlayment - Just be aware of this. I had a 190 square foot room and needed to buy a second roll just to cover the last 3 x 5 foot area. Maybe it was just me, but the instructions stated to lay the barrier "shiny side up". I honestly could not tell that one side was shiny. No search on the web was helpful, leading me to believe that it was just my issue. I took a wild guess and hope that I did it right! Again, maybe it is just me that has had this concern.

                                  I actually bought this by mistake. I thought it was both a moisture barrier and cushioning underlayment. It provides no cushion or sound deadening on concrete slab. I should have bought the plastic type with cushioning and moisture barrier combined.
