Let me start this post by saying I have not been compensated in any way for this review. Since I'm so pleased with this rug, I wanted to let others know! I purchased this 6'7" X 10' area rug from an online company called RugsUSA and I couldn't be more happy with both the product and the company. I know that it's sometimes scary to purchase bigger ticket items online but after reading all of the 5-star reviews, I decided to take the plunge.
I knew I wanted one of these vintage-style, faded-look rugs but what I had seen in stores was crazy expensive, up into the 200-300.00 range -- way out of my price 'league'. With the free shipping and 10% discount code they offer my total cost was 116.00. All of their rugs come in multiple sizes from small, runner-type up to very large area rugs.
The color and pattern are exactly as described and seen on their site. You could choose to purchase a pad to go underneath but I opted not to since this is in the bedroom. I thinks it's quite thick and plush but if you were going to have this in a living or family room, you might want the pad, but again, I don't think it's necessary.
The edges are bound SO neatly - no frayed edges, strings, etc. As with any rug, when unrolled, the edges rolled up slightly. I taped them down with painter's tape for just a few hours and they laid completely flat.
The room really feels nice and cozy now!
Here are some of the great things about RugsUSA:
- Site is very easy to navigate
- Lots of detailed information about each rug
- Buyer reviews
- Ships FedEx free with lots of email communication from the time you place the order, to the time it ships, to the time it is delivered.
- Comes securely wrapped in heavy-duty plastic with cardboard end protectors that keep edges from being damaged in transit
- Always at least a 10% discount code on site
- Returns seem fairly straight forward (you have 14 days from the date of your delivery to initiate a return)
- LOTS and LOTS and LOTS of styles, colors and sizes to choose from
- Most importantly - a high-quality rug for an extremely low cost!
Personally, I will not purchase a rug anywhere else again. In fact, I'm going to have to force myself to stay OFF of the site since there are WAY too many pretty rugs!!
On
any given week (depending on how busy I am!) I love to participate in Link Parties. These gals put a lot of time and effort into
hosting these parties so I always want to show my appreciation by directing my
