I keep getting these popups with Iris Apfel and Ruggable rugs.  Does anyone have one?  Do you like it?  Pluses/minuses?  TIA!

I ordered one 2 years ago and sent it back immediately.  Like 20 minutes after I got it.

 

The colors are much more muted than they appear online and in ads.

 

Apparently, I didn't learn from that and I ordered two small holiday throw rugs last fall.  Again, the patterns and colors were muted and adhering their backing to the back of the rug is a royal pain in the.....

 

I gave them both to goodwill.

 

Never again.


Why is it, when I have a 50/50 guess at something, I'm always 100% wrong?

I bought a 9x12. I forgot to check the tub capacity of our washer and dryer. turns out, it's too large to wash at home so it will have to go to a laundromat when it needs to be washed. but for now, spot cleaning has taken care of small spills.

as @gidgetgh  mentioned, the colors are more muted than I expected. I thought it would be a deeper red, but I like it. putting it down on the backing took two people and a little trial and error. it does not curl up on the edges, which was a concern for me as a tripping hazard. I chose the thicker backing and although it's not ultra cushioned, it's enough to be comfortable.

I'm very happy with ours.

I have several and really like them. I have the small runner in front of my kitchen sink. I change it out with one for fall, halloween and christmas. The Halloween one has skeletons. I think they're very nice. I know they're having a sale right now. I have a very long hallway and I'm thinking of getting the longer runner.  They wash up nice. I don't dry mine. My daughter dried hers, and it shrunk a little.
