This plush area rug creates a separate, cozy sitting area in a large bedroom, and lightens up the dark floor. It feels great under bare feet, and adds a clean, modern touch to a traditional Victorian room.
It leaves a little bit of white, dusty particles under the carpet, but that goes away with time. This little area rug provides a lot of value for the cost. I liked it so much that I bought another one for our small Victorian parlor.
Yes, I recommend this product.

This rug is of a terrible quality. I purchased this rug online and picked it up at the store. When I got it home and took it out of the plastic wrap and rolled it out the mesh backing was deteriorating. It shedding all over my wood floors. In addition the pile is very thin. If you separate the strands you can see a lot of open area on the mesh. Returned it the next day and went straight to the carpet outlet for a carpet remnant. Found something that is 10x better quality for only 20-30 dollars more and that includes having its edges bound. Its a shag carpet too! Well worth a few extra dollars to go with the remnant.
Cons: everything
No, I do not recommend this product.

Like the other reviews I've read, I am delighted with this rug, it is beautiful on my wood floors. The size is perfect 8.x 10 and I would call the color more of a cream than beige. It was delivered fast, came rolled up in good condition, and looked great as soon as I unrolled it and put it on the floor, lays flat with no curling edges or waves. I put carpet padding under mine which makes it feel like you're walking on air, but the rug would be fine without it. This is a very well made carpet by Mohawk, a well known company. The real magic happens when you vacuum it, the shag fibers pop right up and stay there. I do wish there were more color offerings so I could get one in plum for my bedroom. Totally LOVE IT!
Yes, I recommend this product.

I purchased this rug as a temporary measure while waiting for a larger, custom-sized one to be made. The look and feel of the rug are very nice and it served its purpose quite well. I did note that, after having it in place for just a few months, there was quite a bit of "dandruff" (best descriptor I can think to use since they were white flakes) underneath the rug when I went to move it. While it may have been the pad I used with it, I suspect it was the rug (the pad is fairly rubbery and doesn't seem able to produce this "dandruff"). Otherwise, the rug looked very nice, held up well and added a clean, neutral look to the room.
Pros: Functional
Yes, I recommend this product.

3 years ago, I bought this rug in various sizes (runner, 2'x3'4", 3'4"x5') in both the crimson color and the starch (cream) color. We have dogs and the starch color quickly ended up looking dirty, and we replaced those within a year.
The crimson color rugs, however, we still have and use - they look great and they fluff right back up when we run the vacuum cleaner over them. Love them. We have them on hardwood floors and they don't slip around, and the backings on our rugs are still perfect (some reviews said the backing crumbled off theirs, but this hasn't happened at all to our rugs). Highly recommend, great value.
Yes, I recommend this product.

We were looking for some inexpensive 8x10 area rugs, and a friend suggested we look at Home Depot. I'm so glad we listened! We ordered 2 rugs online and they were delivered within a week.
The color is PERFECT! Not too yellow or pink like some ivories can be.... just the perfect creamy off white ivory that we were looking for. I was concerned about it being a shag rug, but the shag isn't very long and it looks great.
For being an inexpensive area rug, it's made really well. You can't see the binding through the top, and it's very soft. We've had one spill so far, and it was easy to clean.
Couldn't be happier!
Yes, I recommend this product.

This is a great, plush rug. It instantly warmed up our living room, and it's soft enough to hang out on for/with the kids. Looks more expensive than it was, gets softer with age/vacuuming, and doesn't "shed". There was quite a bit of sand/debris when we first unwrapped it, but after the first vacuum, it hasn't come back. Shipping was fast. No complaints.
Pros: High Quality of Material, Easy to Install, Looks Great, Modern, Easy to Clean, Comfortable, Looks High End, Effective
Yes, I recommend this product.

I am very pleased with this area rug. I gave this item (and the smaller one) a 4 Star rating due to the backing material/treatment Aside from this I am very satisfied.
I purchased the 8' x 10' along with the 5' x 8' size for the purpose of a low-cost solution in the context of having one (or more) exchange students. Accidents happen.
The color is consistent with both, although the backing on the 8' x 10' is dark, almost black-since the carpet itself is apparently from the same stock, it doesn't make sense as to why this is. Also, I checked the item in my local store and (due to lighting), the in store color SEEMED a little too white. In a normal, naturally lit room, the color is very pleasant-a little darker than bread dough. I mention this to make your decision easier.
Other reviewers have stated that the backing leaves little flakes and this is so. It's not a problem, as dusting is part of housekeeping however, one solution is to pick up a quart or two of pure liquid latex and apply it to the back, let it dry and then lay down a carpet pad.
The look is very appealing. Granted, it is shag BUT because it's an area rug on hardwood, the shag works very well in terms of looks and feels great beneath the feet.
Both the 8' x 10' and 5' x 8' are reasonably priced but (again), being 'cheep', I opted to use the Scotch-Guard (BLUE label) made especially for rugs and carpets. After spraying once (follow directions, please), I roughed up the nap and sprayed again to make sure the pile would be protected as deeply as possible. After the Scotch-Guard dried, the pile was a little stiffer and and looks a lot better than simply vacuuming or raking the pile. There was no color change after applying the Scotch-Guard to the STARCH color carpet. Test first, as directed if you choose to go this route.
I am very pleased with both the price and overall quality of this item.
Yes, I recommend this product.

The backing on this rug was evidently faulty because when I rolled it out on my floor a huge amount of white, powdery residue began crumbling off the rug and all over the floor. As I continued to install it, the residue only increased and my floor and furniture were covered with it. I returned the rug and got a full refund.
Pros: Looks Great, Great Accent
Cons: backing flaked off and was very stiff
No, I do not recommend this product.

Was looking all over for a good quality shag rug but everywhere I looked, they were either cheap quality or way to expensive for me. I found this one and though I was a little hesistant because of the cost, I couldn't pass it up. Turns out the quality's not bad. It's a fairly thick pile and pretty durable. We have a pretty strong vaccuum cleaner and was kind of afraid to use it on this rug because I've had bad luck a previous shag rug, but thankfully, it's holding up. If there's one bad note, I think it's just the bottom side of the rug. It's not a normal carpet backing. It's made of that...stuff that eventually cracks and flakes. So far, we haven't experienced any cracking or flaking except when we first unrolled it but since then, it's been okay. Again, for the price and descent quality, I'd buy another...which I probably will for my son's bedroom.
Yes, I recommend this product.

Get a pad! This rug is not very thick and a pad makes a big difference. Rug does look nice and the color of stone goes well with my wood floor and matches kitchen travertine! Note! the rug should have been cleaned of all the excess backing before it was prepared for shipping. If you don;t want tons of little white flakes on your flooring and pad I suggest you turn it over and run a vacuum over the backside before using it.
Yes, I recommend this product.

I'm so happy with this carpet. I also bought the padding which makes it appear more plush.
The bottom of the carpet does have a little dandruff, but still worth it. Also very easy to clean. I have two chihuahuas, so it's perfect.

Bought it to go under our bed in our new home. We built this home and put tile everywhere. It looked so good, I used it in the great room. When I placed the new furniture around it looked great. My new neighbor bought her great room rug at a speciality rug store for a lot more money......took hers back and bought this same rug.......I did look elsewhere on line, but decided on this one. As I said, originally it was for the bedroom band would have been mostly covered. Pleased so far........

My only complaint is that the back is very flaky and rough. I placed it under my bed on hardwood floors and it rubbed against my bed frame while laying it down and the backing scratched my bed. It would have been perfect if it had a softer more cohesive backing. Overall, it is ok and good for the price.
