Dunno but generally speaking with stairs the thicker the underlay the
harder it is to shape around the nosings - which may or may not matter

On flat surfaces (rooms/halls) I've always gone for Cloud 9 either 9 or
11mm thick. I agree a thick underlay may be more difficult on stairs and
maybe a thinner underlay could be used in this one position.


Except, of course, the edge of a step is where a carpet gets the most wear.
