its a hit and miss depending on ladders used ( with/ without swivel feet).  With swivel feet has tendency to slide on  wet or damp surfaces.

That's what we have. As previously mentioned it works better with standard ladders.

We use them, but I wouldn't trust them on tiles, or any smooth or slippery surface. My favourite ladder device is the ladder base mate which is  fantastic. We use the ones that bolt onto the ladder.

it is not used for grip. it is used for levelling out. Do not use for grip as it is  not for this.

For working on uneven ground, inclines etc. You need an A point ladder. Same principle as a tripod or three legged seat, won't rock.

I've got them and they're great for working on uneven surfaces.  I've used them along with the Rojak ladder stopper.

The ladder matt is OK on a hard but crap on a mud or grass I found them a waste of money a wet towel/ wet micro fibre worked better on the wet .
