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.

This is my second frise shag rug that I've purchased for my home. I absolutely love them. They are a great value for the price. I didn't think it would be possible to find a 8x10 rug under $200, but this one is fantastic! I've had one for 2 years and it is still in great condition. I have one in the living room and one under the bed in the bedroom. It's nice getting out of bed onto the shag carpet instead of the hardwood floors. Highly recommend the rug!

Shag area rug looks nice for the low price. The backing flakes all over the floor when you are putting it down. Use a really thick, more expensive, underpad and the rug feels like a more expensive rug when you walk on it. I prefer inexpensive rugs since my dogs eventually get them really dirty or scratch at them before lying down. It is more cost effective for me to buy a new inexpensive one than to clean a more expensive wool rug that never looks or feels the same after cleaning it.
Yes, I recommend this product.

After Scouring many many sites and stores for a 8x10 white rug, which was budget friendly as well, I stumbled upon this rug here at home depot. I loved that it was a shaggy rug for a very reasonable price. My only hesitation was that I wanted something white or closer to white, while this Seemed more like cream/beige. I still took a chance and bought it.
Thank god , this fits my bill perfectly! It's much closer to white than it is to beige, I like to call it soft white! Its not the most plush rug, but it's medium pile and does that job.

Have a small dog and have had the rug for a month. Just got my first stain. Shampooed the rug and the backing crumbled. Now it has no form and will not square up. The bits of backing fall off dry now everytime the rug moves slightly. I have hardwoods and white dots are now sticking to the hardwood. One month in and I now am looking to replace this atrocity. You should be able to clean a cream colored rug!!! appalled at the ratings. Yep, it looks nice out of the roll. try to live with it. It's "affordability" is costing me much more that a decent rug since I now have to buy another.
No, I do not recommend this product.

I knew I was not buying a high end area rug, but I was pleasantly surprised by the quality. The shag is close enough together to have the rug look more expensive. I really like the color of the crimson. It appears to be the color of a red delicious apple, exactly what I was looking for. I am using it to anchor the coffee table and chair with the couch. At first I was afraid to vaccuum it in case the shag would be pulled out, but that has not happened. I would not hesitate to buy this rug again, or in any other color. I had shopped many other places and this was the best deal for the money.
Yes, I recommend this product.

We shopped all around, and this rug was by far the best quality and look for the price. It's a nice neutral color and looks great in our room. I highly recommend it. You do want to invest in a nice rug pad, which makes it appear a little thicker.
Yes, I recommend this product.

This is an inexpensive version. The back is glued and when you move it hardened glue get everywhere. When it stays put it looks good for the money.

At first glance, it was perfect. However, when it arrived at our home, and we unrolled it, the backing was dry-rotted, and we had debris all over the livingroom! For now, it suits the situation, but we know we will have to replace it going forward. It's true, you get what you pay for!!!
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.
