Perhaps put some loop velcro on your floor, and then the hook velcro on the foot pedal?
Yes, it means sticking it to the floor, but if/when you don't want it there, it will peel off and you can remove any of the gooey-residue with GooGone.
The waffle weave stuff ... skeptical about n it. Never tried it for sewing machine foot pedals, but doesn't seem to keep other things stable for me.
The only method that keeps my foot pedal from sliding on my smooth surface floors (and also worked when the floors were carpeted) is a piece of pegboard my husband made that he stapled Velcro to, put matching peel and stick Velcro on my foot pedal. The board is long enough it pushes against the wall (so it can't get too far away from me). This works a dream. I don't usually take this machine away to sew, but if I do I can either take the board with me, or take the board off and just take the foot control. Best gadget my dear hubby ever made for me....
