Safavieh Casual Natural Jute Hand-Woven Chunky Thick Rug - 8' x 10'

This rug is actually jute not sisal. The description says sisal weave which is accurate but if you want a sisal rug this is not it. On the good side, it is very soft and thick. It would go well in a casual setting. On the downside, it contains an extraordinary amount of dust. If you or family members are allergic....beware. I returned it because I wanted sisal and hated the dust.

The rug is the perfect color, thick with a nice texture. Very well made. I liked it so much that I bought another one for my family room!

Love the color and quality of this rug!

This rug is just what we were looking for! I painstakingly read the reviews of every 8x10 jute rug on overstock and took a leap with this one. The other reviewers are right - this rug is soft and the color is just as pictured. Would highly recommend this carpet for those looking for a natural fiber rug!

I read the reviews and decided I'd give it a try. Bad idea. Looked great at first. Received many compliments. Had a very strong odor that remained. Can't be vacuumed without knots coming unwoven and I use a Dyson. Sheds really badly. I have dogs but noticed I would have to vacuum ever other day due to huge piles forming in corners and under furniture. Its natural fiber also sheds a dark dusty film under the rug. So you have to regularly roll up the rug and clean underneath. Only had for 7 months and it got tossed to the curb. It's a very thick rough rug. One side has deeper knots which should've been the topside. These knots made it uncomfortable to sit on and walk across. Couldn't walk across in heels or it would snag the knots. The fibers also cover your clothing if you lay or sit on it. Hard to get off afterwards. Very rough with sharp pieces in the knots. I have a 1 year old and it wasn't a material I would've preferred. It looked great for the first couple of months until the knots starting coming undone and you have to roll them up and tuck them back in constantly. It was able to handle many spills without leaving rings. The price was the why I purchased it but looking back I would pass on this one for a higher quality. Maybe something with a thinner pile thickness and mixture of cotton/chenille/jute or and indoor/outdoor jute.

I read a lot of the reviews and was a little discouraged about buying this rug because of the negative comments. But after taking the chance, I'm SO glad I did!! I've purchased various other jute rugs from Rugs USA, and Ashley's Home Furniture and this one is actually the best quality and price! If you have never owned a jute rug, you will be a little surprised by the smell and shedding, but I promise, the smell goes away and the shedding is much lighter over time. It's well worth it if you want a durable, quality rug with a beautiful look. I prefer this type of rug over any others because they are long lasting and great for high traffic. I have two messy kids under 3! I wouldn't recommend vacuuming these rugs with a high suction because it can unravel the jute. I would recommend shaking it out outside and then lightly vacuuming it with the hose rather than the full vacuum head to keep everything in tact. Overall, I'm very happy with my new rug and would highly recommend it if you are looking for this style! I purchased the 8x10 and it's perfect!

Ok :) I have purchased from O maybe 10x's? It seems that most items are a let down- either with quality, color, paint. I have bought 4 rugs from overstock. One rug I thought was plush- ended up being flat weave. Another very expensive rug's colors were extremely muted, darker than described or shown AND one corner was much lighter than the rest. The third rug's colors were completely off what the site showed. It showed beige and I got chocolate, AND had a 3 in. circle of some blue/green substance dried on to it! I tell you all of this to let you know that when I say this rug is fantastic- it really is! It is JUTE, not sisal. I know this because the rug comes with a care label attatched which stated it is 100% jute. It is a thick rug- 1/2 to 1 inch thick? Nice- however a door might not open over this rug or office chair wont roll ( something to consider). It does have a strong earthy smell to it, which I actually really enjoy because it reminds me of gardening, however I am sure some would find it off. I am sure the smell will dissapate over time. Care instructions say not to have direct sunlight on it. (I dont know why). I love this rug- absolutely worth the money- it is beautiful.

Nice rug color is beautiful

Arrived sooner than expected and packaged very well. This is the perfect rug for my large formal living room. It's big and chunky which adds the perfect amount of texture to the room. Opposite of some reviews, there was no smell other than a barely noticeable natural smell if you stick your nose right down to it because it IS a natural fiber rug. This rug sheds because it's natural. That's just something a person has to consider with any woven natural fiber rug.

After holding this rug in my shopping cart for months, literally, I finally decided to go through with the purchase last weekend. It only took a few days (less then a week) to arrive and I was so excited to see it on my front porch. I am so thankful that we have a covered porch because we had substantial rains all day that day, and I was at work when it arrived. The rug was safely sealed in thick plastic wrap and left in a dry spot on the porch floor. I attempted to move it into the house and unwrap it myself, but it was too heavy for me (sorry FED Ex guy!), and so I had to wait for my husband to get home and help. This rug unpacked and unrolled pretty easily, and laid flat on the floor immediately. I absolutely love this rug - it brings so much warmth and interest to our previously bare living room wood floor. It's very thick with a fairly large chunky or nubby texture that feels great on your feet. I'm waiting for the felt rug pad we bought to go underneath it, which is supposed to be delivered today. I know that will protect the rug longer, as well as add to the springiness under foot. The one surprising thing about this rug, is that it has a strong, natural fiber or grasslike smell that took a few days to dissipate. It smelled a bit like a damp basement. (I also have a particularly sensitive sense of smell, so I might find it more offensive than most.) Now that the rug has been unrolled and in our space a few days, the smell, while still faintly there, smells much more pleasant and MUCH LESS like a basement. I would absolutely purchase this rug again, and recommend it to anyone.

I've had it for 20 months and the edges are stretching and the weave is beginning to come apart. Also the black dirt still sheds onto my hardwoods, kind of nasty!

Rug was as pictured, very rustic, with streaks of gray, dark and light tan, not one uniform color. It was well constructed and heavy, so you dont need a rug pad underneath. The problem I had was that the mildew smell lessened with time but didnt completely go away, despite leaving it to air out in the garage an entire week and then putting it in inside the house, which stunk up both stories. I had to remove it finally; I wouldnt recommend this one

GREAT looking rug! Exactly as pictured!

Was nervous buying a rug online, but decided to pull the trigger when it went on sale over Labor Day and I'm glad I did! Yes, this rug does shed some, but that's the nature of these types of rugs and it's under the rug, so it's not like people can see it! I haven't had any issues with snags and I have received many compliments from family and friends. Overall very pleased! ***REVISED*** Ok, I spoke too soon. Although I still think the rug is pretty, I have had MANY snags with this rug!!!! In fact I just looked and I now have 5 more places that I have to fix. This is on top of the 10 or so that I have already fixed. I'm able to get the snags to look somewhat like the original braiding, but not exact and it's a total pain to do. I ended up have to use a knitting needle or something similar to fix. I find it makes "re-braiding" easier. For this reason, I am adjusting my stars from 5 to 3.

i ordered this on overstock and it came really fast. The rug is much better than expected and beautiful. I normally think natural fiber rugs are hard to the touch but this is very soft!. I am using it as a base and put our cowhide rug on top!

While the chunkiness and texture of this rug appears to be very "Fixer Upper" ish, this is the most disgustingly, filthy rug..impossible to clean! The jute fibers are all over your clothes, socks, baby's pacifiers, travels to the corners of your flooring. It's similar to fine cat hair that is a magnet. Oh, and just check your vacuum after you use it. It gets completely filled up 1x cleaning it. I decided to return the rug, so when I called to return it, the shipping was *** but the rug was HUGE so I thought I'd go ahead and try to sell it myself and discount the *** since I would be eating that cost anyway. After I sold the rug, the individual came to get it and as I had rolled the rug back up to have ready for pick up....(makes me disgusted even saying this), there was a baseball diamond of DIRT under this rug. No wonder why my vacuum was always gross. Needless to say, I gave the rug away for free because there is no way I would ever want to give somebody something so filthy. Afterwards, I felt terrible I even bought the rug...one my children has really bad allergies and that rug was probably holding everything under the sun in the fibers. Overstock should pay me to buy that rug.

after 2 weeks the rug is completely falling apart- love the look of it but the quality is terrible ;(

We purchased this rug a year ago and it has help up wonderfully! Through all the foot traffic the past year, it has done very well and has come into use during many get togethers. We are very happy with our purchase.

OMG! I love this rug and the price was crazy good! I've priced this all over the web and in some local discount places and I got a steal! Highly recommend.

Love the chunky natural look. We have bought 3 others in different sizes.

This rug is better than I had even expected. The workmanship is wonderful and I love the different tones woven into it. It really added some warmth to the room and pulled my Farmhouse look together. I plan on buying a few more in different sizes. I couldn’t be more pleased with my purchase.

This is a fantastic neutral colored rug! You need a no-skid mat under it to prevent slipping but great rug. The price is much more reasonable than other comparable jute rugs.

Ok rug, doesn't clean easily and holds dirt. Looks pretty though.

This rug has leaves a nasty mess on your floor and has pulls in it .

This rug is everything that everyone said it would be! Perfect for what I wanted it for. It’s rustic but yet soft and functional. It added character to a room that needed that! Couldn’t be happier with my purchase.

Love this jute rug! Layered it on top of my berber carpet and it looks beautiful!

The natural look of this rug made it a must-have housewarming gift for my daughter's new farmhouse! Both of us are very pleased. Not sure how her cat's will react to it-- I am hoping they do not see it as a scratching post...
