What Customers Are Saying

Customers overwhelmingly praise the rug's exceptional softness, luxurious feel, and aesthetic appeal, describing it as cozy and transformative with a thick knitted texture and neutral creamy color. Many highlight its visual impact and magazine-worthy appearance. However, a substantial group reports severe, persistent shedding that vacuuming cannot resolve, with fibers covering floors and furniture. Some also mention premature wear, deterioration within months, or durability inconsistencies. A few note chemical odors or sizing issues. Despite shedding concerns, most customers find the softness and look worthwhile, though durability remains a significant drawback for many.

Super soft and seems durable

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great rug. Lovely that it is wool and Cotten blend.

The worst

Would Not Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I wouldn’t say it’s soft. Unless an itchy wool sweater feels soft to you. Definitely NOT pet friendly. Every hair and piece of lint gets trapped in this and doesn’t come up with the vacuum. It’s like my dog’s hair is forever intertwined in the fabric, and I’ve only used it two weeks. To say that I hate this rug is an understatement. It did look nice in the pictures on the website, but the reality of this rug is just awful. Avoid at all costs.

Not so soft

Would Not Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We purchased this rug to place in front of our vanity. The photos looked beautiful, however this is the itchiest, poorest quality material. This rugs sheds more than my late Bernese mountain dog. Very inconvenient for the price. Aesthetically, this rug does not look as advertised.

Perfect rug!

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This rug is beautiful and so cozy! It gets a lot of compliments for how soft it feels and I love that it’s made with wool, so the quality will last. My only concern is figuring out how to keep it looking bright and how to keep it clean. Would definitely buy again!

Sheds fibers all over the house. Fibers clog vacuums.

Would Not Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I wouldn’t recommend this rug. It’s beautiful but it sheds. No one can lay on the rug without being covered in fibers. It’s like we have a dog in the house but it’s all coming from our living room rug.

Looked great at first

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was thrilled when I received the rug. It looked beautiful, however in just a month it hasn’t worn well. Very disappointed.

Truly the softest

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Wow! This rug is awesome. So so soft. Very chunky texture and thick. I will have to cut off the bottom of my door so it can swing over rug, but that is how much I love the rug. No shedding. I love it!

Beautiful thick knit!!

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Beautiful rug, as described. Unique and elegantly subtle. The knot is very thick and a lovely sensory experience. Great value. Note that it’s quite thick and it’s easy for things to get stuck in the gaps of the stitches. I wouldn’t recommend using it in an area with a lot of crumbs or where dirt could get tracked through it.

so soft, not tan

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] the rug is so soft, was trying to talk myself into the thought that the color would work. however, it is really a red or auburn type color. they (I had purchased two) are not going to work for the room so I will need to figure out how to return. *the color pictured would have worked for the room. the actual color of the rugs we received does not. I did look to see if there was another color in the same rug to try (it's that soft - would have lo...

Fantastic rug

Would Recommend

This rug is SO soft. I was looking to find a rug to replace my much loved, but disintegrating and shedding jute rug. I found this perfect match and I couldn’t be happier. The braided weave is beautiful and it is a really lovely blend of colors. It cleans up like a champ and I have already received so many compliments on it.

Wouldn't buy unless it was on sale

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] REALLY strong smell. It's been in our guest bedroom for a few days now with an air purifier and the window open and the room still smells very strongly like chemicals. Love the look, but believe the reviews that say it's very fragile!

Beautiful but sheds

Would Not Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I regret buying this rug, my husband absolutely hates it. We have had it 5 or 6 months now and it has NEVER stopped shedding. I vacuum it almost daily and still our house is covered in white fibers. This is in our main family living room which gets a lot of foot traffic so I hoped it would have stopped by now but it has not even a little.Additionally, I knew a white rug would get dirty but other reviews said it was easy to clean... there is no ...
