after reading some of the negative reviews of this product, i was frightened that the rug would end up looking like rat hair, or something. i also expected it to be incredibly itchy because of the wool. i was pleasantly surprised when i received it today, which by the way was only 2 business days after i had ordered it. the wool is VERY soft. craftsmanship is impressive as well. sure it sheds, but i feel like that is typical of ALL wool (think about it, your winter sweaters shed don't they?). also the value of this rug is incredible. i looked at many other stores before checking overstock, and these rugs ran well into the $300s-$500s, especially for the size. overall much more satisfied than i thought i would be. don't take the negative reviews too seriously, especially since this rug is such a great value.
Just FYI, these rugs are wool and DO shed. They need raked, they need shaken out, and they need special care when having them cleaned. They will last forever, but educate yourself on how to care for them. I adore Flokati, the thicker the better. But they are not "simple." I bought one awhile back from Overstock and I just wanted to let people know that there is a learning curve with them. The one I purchased from Overstock was as fine as any other. Go to a reputable website that sells these exclusively and read up about their care, the weight/thickness issues, etc. THEN you can complain if you think the one you purchased is less than quality.
I was very surprised to get a rug this good on-line, sight unseen. It is very thick, plush and lovely. I have been looking at flokati rugs for years and this is the best I've seen. The wool is super soft. I would not recommend it if you have shedding pets or messy children. I think it would be impossible to get the hair out. Good for adults only in my opinion. Little toys would get lost in the deep fibers and drippy juice boxes would be awful. It slides around easily and does need a pad (which I ordered here today) to keep it in place. It's a beautiful carpet. I am very happy with it.
I purchased this for my new grandchild's room. The rug is beautiful, and so very,very soft. I researched the flokati rugs before purchasing.This rug at 2000gm was middle of the line,highest 4000gm. I was very happy to find such a reasonable price for such a high quality rug!
I love this rug!!! I bought three! I was a little concerned when I first received the rug because it didn't look plush at all. I took a medium bristled brush and gently brushed the rug. This removed the excess hair and opened the fibers right up, making it soft and very plush. I noticed that if I brush the rug often, it removes any dirt or whatever falls into the rug before it falls too deep into the rug making it difficult to remove. I have two small children and I don't have any issues with hairs from the rug getting all over them. This is due to the fact that I make sure I brush it often. It truly is a beautiful rug.
It is beautiful as a photo prop BUT it SHEDS a LOT!! Still worth having!
I actually just came back to order another in another color!! Love it!
I bought this for my 7 year old daughter's room. The color was a lighter pink than I expected, but it still looked good. Yes, it looks weird when you take it out of the package, more like yarn pieces than wool, but I put my daughter to work brushing the rug (which she thought was great fun). It's fluffy and looks nice/feels good under foot. The backing it strange - no real back, but for the price, it's just fine. Only problem is keeping my dogs off it, who took it over right away!
The rug color size, color and everything else was a described. However, the quality wasn't what I expected...it wasn't as soft as I had thought. You can tell that its madmade material. It's not bad, but I was hoping for something that seemed more like sheepskin as I already have a real sheepskin rug. I think I would have been fine if I didn't have a real one to compare to...
I bought this for my bedroom floor. Part of it is even under my bed. The wool is very soft to the touch but it appears rough and looks like it needs brushing. However I'm scared to brush it because even with light wear this rug sheds like crazy. Every day there is black fluff all over my bedroom. And it's too thick for my vacuum cleaning to pick up. It looks nice, but I wouldn't buy this product again.
