Quality rug! No shedding!

I was nervous about this purchase as it’s a 20foot runner for our hallway upstairs so accuracy of colors matter. The rug is soft, no smell, no shedding! The colors are muted and pretty close to the picture on the website. I did not want pink in the rug and I am happy to report it is more of a rose/rust color. The blue is more of a grayish bright blue rather than a green. I love the pile height, softness and colors. Very pleased!! Would highly recommend. I did get a thin rug pad to keep it in place.

WARNING sheds constantly

Bought this rug to complement my new furniture and decor. Absolutely love the colors and was excited to see the 12x15 was in stock. Unfortunately that's where the excitement stopped. This rug is constantly shedding. I've vacuumed daily, with the grain, on the highest setting for more than two weeks and still the fibers are everywhere and I do mean everywhere. My dining room, kitchen, and entryway floors are covered. They are all over my 2 year olds clothes and mine if I sit in the floor with him to play. But even worse, they have made their way into sinuses (Nettie pot rinses them into the sink) and now myself and my two boys are suffering from congestion and all yuckiness that comes with it. I've now wasted a ton of money and have to search for a new rug that won't make us sick and cause more work to keep my home clean.

This is the 5th rug I’ve ordered this month, four from this brand. It’s true they shed, its wool. Nice and thick, it filled three Dyson vacuum canisters on first vacuum. Would have filled more if I’d have kept going. Size accurate, I bought the 11x15. I wanted a rug with good shades of blue. Colors are nice, but for sure unusual shades of “blue.” Border has mixed colors and not a solid blue. More of a greenish hue. The pictures are not totally accurate and I believe it’s due to the dye lots and location of production. Overstock needs to list detailed shades as other rug sites do. I added a Mohawk Dual Sided pad underneath all of the rugs we’ve bought and while it’s an added expense, it’s better for the flooring and your rug. It’s very thick and plush, doesn’t look poor quality or thin. I buy these and expect to keep them for years, they are not something I replace in a few years. Overall, met expectations for thickness, but colors were a bit disappointing.

It took three tries to get a rug without a problem. The first rug had three distinct different blue color sections in the background. The rug should never have left the factory the colors were so off. The second rug had a three inch hole in the backing that went through to the front. This was not shipping damage since it was on an inside fold as packaged. Again, this should not have left the factory. The third rug had no problems, however, it is not a high quality rug. It is marked made in China, not India, as stated in the description and it is obviously not handmade as stated in the description. The wool feels more like sisal and is relatively rough feeling on the feet. We kept the third rug because it was purchased for the master bedroom which won't get a lot of traffic and because there are very few rugs in a light blue color which we really wanted. Overstock customer service was excellent in helping with both returns.

I gave this rug a fair review, because on its own, it wasn't a bad looking rug, and it was thick. However, it DID NOT match the 10' runner in the matching collection. The "matching" runner, was actually the color as shown on the site. The 8x10 rug was MANY shades paler, and actually looked sea foam green at night. Because these were both going in the same room in my house, they had to match. When I called Overstock, they mentioned that "monitors" change the color of the rug, however, my point was that if one is ordering from the same collection, the rugs should match. Customer service sent a UPS call tag and was very polite and helpful in ordering a replacement, but the second 8x10 was identical in color to the first. I returned both rugs and ordered something else. Also, as to the chemical odor mentioned regarding some of these rugs, the rugs as advertised are made in India. The ones I received were made in China. When I asked Customer Service about this they said it had to do with the origin of the materials, but these rugs had strong chemical odors. When I reordered another rug (also made by Safavieh), it was made in India, had NO odor, and the 8x11 matched the 10' runner I ordered. Because customer service was so polite, and took care of my issue promptly, I was willing to try another rug purchase and had excellent results. The other collection I ordered was the Handmade Antiquities Mashad Blue/Ivory Wool. Also, I found that the rugs can vary in color quite a bit during the different lighting in a day, in my own living room so depending on how and when the picture was taken, they can appear different! I take Safavieh's manufacturing # on the description page and cross reference on Safavieh's website to get more info on the collection you are looking at, and also rely on the majority of reviews to get feel for how it will look.

I had never had a wool area rug, so I was taking a big gamble when I ordered this one. I did some research about what was good & bad to check out when making a decision. I really, really love this rug. It’s very lush and thick and soft. The colors are muted so they won’t clash with most colors in your room. Because it is wool, expect it to shed for a while when you first get it, but after that, just enjoy it in your room! As far as colors go, the description of this rug being light blue means that it leans more to the light teal color rather than a classic blue. It’s almost a beautiful light blue-green in color.

Beautiful- Looks like crewel embroidery!

Love it even though I had hoped for more of an aqua- blue! The rug that I received in only a week is a neutral med- light blue that is almost chameleon in its ability to blend with deep teal and aqua. Accent colors are neutral shades also and the “brick” looks well with either burgundy or corals. There is enough of a butterscotch yellow and ivory-beige to give it life and keep the blue from being dreary and it shows beautifully with warm woods. Yes, it does shedd but I love the rug so much that a little shedding doesn’t bother. I wanted this rug to tie my living room pieces together and give a brighter feeling and it does, even on a dark snowstormy day. It’s design is elegant and suitable for either a casual or formal setting.

Gorgeous area rug - true to online sample color

I've been looking at this area rug for several months, primarily through the online sales sites of two major home improvement chains. Just by chance, I came across the same rug at Overstock.com and found the best price and the most helpful reviews. I purchased the rug for a good-sized sitting room adjoining our master bedroom. I had a specific color palette in mind while I was shopping around, and the Legacy light blue wool rug had the perfect combination of colors and was offered in a useful variety of sizes, which eliminated any dilemma of finding the right rug in the wrong size. These are the pros and cons of this rug as best as I can describe:
