Purchased this rug as a gift for my college freshman niece to use in her dorm room - just the right size, great neutral color, and a good value for the dollar. Added a warm, homey feel to what always starts out as industrial grade dorm room floors. Living in a different state ordered on line and picked up at the store by school - no problems!
Pros: Comfortable
Yes, I recommend this product.

I have had this rug for a year and use it on the hardwood floor in my bedroom. It is very stain resistant, super soft and looks great! This is a low traffic area but I've been very pleased with the way it has held up (still looks brand new) over the past year. The best thing about this rug is the price! After looking at 8x10 rugs everywhere with price tags around $300, this was a great buy for my first home. I would recommend it to anyone looking for a nice rug with good value, it definitely doesn't look like I only paid $150 for it!
Pros: Rich Looking, Excellent Quality, Sturdy, Looks Great, Perfect Size, Functional, Well Made, Comfortable, Nice Design
Yes, I recommend this product.

This rug is pretty fantastic, we live in an apt w/ great acoustics & it really helps to buffer the noise. We got the off white/cream shag rug (does not shed) and have had a couple of spills but the rug cleans up beautifuly w/ a little soap and water, w/o absorbing to much and causing stains. Would definitley recommend this to others looking for an area rug.
Yes, I recommend this product.

This rug is just what I needed for our living space to protect our 11 month old twins from falling on the hardwood floors. It is soft and easy to clean. The price is great and the free shipping was even better.

I agree the rug looks beautiful for the money, but the 5 x 8 I purchased had a problem: the backing kept shedding granules. I noticed it the same day I bought the rug, but even after a few days the backing kept shedding. The granules worked their way out from under the edges of the rug and got tracked to the rest of the floor. I got tired of sweeping up granules, so I returned the rug.
No, I do not recommend this product.

I'm writing my review from the floor by the fire because this rug just begs to be snuggled on. It's a soft short shag that feels great to the touch. I bought it because we needed a rug NOW and it was so cheap I figured there was no risk - I'd use it until I found what I really wanted. But it turns out that this rug is what I really wanted! It's not super thick, so I'd recommend a thicker non-slip pad for it. It's probably not the best choice for a high traffic area (I don't know how long it would hold up to that) but for a good looking, inviting rug to spruce up a room - go for it!
Yes, I recommend this product.

I purchased the rug on sale and for my basement to brighten it up a bit. For the price paid, this rug is a great deal. It's pretty soft and looks good. Just make sure you like the "shag" look (which i do!) before you purchase. You can always check it out beforehand in the store... that's what I did. Again, great value for the money. Thx.

I bought this rug because I needed something basic and clean-looking (style-wise). This rug fits the bill; it's comfortable under foot, looks nice, and the light color (Starch) and simplicity of the shag helps to brighten and soften the darker office/bedroom where I'm using it in my home.
Now granted, it's not going to be "plush", but it's not meant to be; and yes, you will feel the hard floor underneath, as you will with any area rug, which is why you can purchase an area-rug pad (note that I'm not talking about the waffle-weave kind, but an actual type of carpet pad specifically sized for area rugs). I know some have said the fibers felt a little funny at first and I experienced this, too; after a week or two of me and the dogs walking on it, that feel dissipates, as does the off-gassing/smell. If you want an area rug that's not busy with design/pattern, costs relatively very little and don't need it to be a showpiece in your home, then get this. And if you want it for a dorm room, the extra bucks are well worth buying this over some $39 cheapie remnant at most stores around town.
Yes, I recommend this product.

I had been looking at comparable rugs at other stores and found this rug to be of the highest quality and best price. Home Depot's beat the competition by over 35$ and included Free Shipping as a promo when I purchased the rug. Not to mention the delivery was prompt! Since renovating our first house Home Depot has been our greatest help!

This rug is in an area where it gets a small amount of wear and tear, but it looks great. I am contemplating ordering a larger one for a more-traveled area and it will be interesting to see how it holds up. Overall, I recommend this product.

I read the reviews because although I wanted lighter rugs in my home, I wasn't sure if this was the one. I hated the "shag" of the 70's and like the current "freize", but I have a teenager, a middle-schooler, a baby on the way, and a boxer!
The positive reviews were accurate! This rug looks great, feels great, and what a great price! Within two days my boxer had vomited on my larger rug (I also got the 8x10). I found the first spot soon after, and it cleaned up easily. Two days later...I found a second spot (eww) but it cleaned up just as easily and left no odor or residue!
P. S. I used a professional spot remover (water based) and scolded my husband for giving our dog pork bones!
Yes, I recommend this product.

not the greatest quality, but the price is right if you are looking for a cheap rug. recommend putting a pad underneath to make it more cushy. true to color on-line and doesn't shed much.

I just got my year old carpets cleaned and thought a great way to protect them for the long run in the living room was to get an area rug. This rug is fantastic because it is super neutral and goes with about anything. It actually made my living room look even better than it already did!
