Not exactly shag

I ordered this rug mistaking it for another shag rug by the same brand that I love. I was dissappointed to find that it is not very shag like at all. It's been over a week and it's still not laying flat. The rug is very thin, and you can see the lines of the weave. After one vaccuum the rug quickly became fuzzy and frayed in not a good way.

A great rug for the money!

I bought this to go along with two other rugs I had formerly purchased (the line is no longer carried by Kohl's). It matched in color perfectly, though this rug is not quite as thick as the former line from Safavieh. It is still a great rug, and we are happy with it for our family room. Easy to vacuum, easy to spot clean, this rug holds up well to heavy foot traffic and looks great.

Stylish with Weight

This is a beautiful, plush rug, featuring highs and lows, but not so extreme that you notice it when you step on it. Lovely shading with the browns, cream, and blue (which could be used in a gray room). I read that a pad should be used under it due to slippage, but I have mine on 24x24 tiles and it doesn't move. It's not heavy, but weighty compared to the thin rugs.

Safavieh Is The Best! I ordered this to replace a shag rug. The print on this rug is much more stylish and sophisticated than my previous runner. I always look to Safavieh whenever I am in need of an area rug or runner. Albeit there are less expensive area rugs but they don't measure up to the quality of a Safavieh rug.

I purchase area rugs often and for many years. These Safavieh Shag rugs are a family favorite!! The colors are accurate and they are extremely thick and soft. I have three charcoal grey, a taupe, a beautiful dark purple,a brown and now a terra-cotta !!! Some have traveled with us as we've moved and some purchases for new home and/ or new decor! I have passed a couple down to my children as they've gotten new homes. Overstock has very quick delivery and excellent customer service. I have NEVER been disappointed with rugs I've purchased from them which is not true of other online companies. I highly recommend this shag rug in whatever color you need.

It is not as thick of soft as I expected. A friend ordered a Safavieh shag of a little different style, and it seems deeper. Though it arrived 'rolled up', it had fold creases on it which make it look cheap, maybe from the backing being unsubstantial. It is more the quality of a throw rug than an area rug. I was somewhat disappointed.

Stunning Light Gold Rug

This rug is beautiful. What needs to be known is that it is not a dark gold. It is light gold leaning towards a yellow gold. The rug was rolled up when delivered. I placed it on the floor and let it settle for 24 hours to get rid of all the kinks. Then I put the furniture on it. I love the end product, but a tiny bit dissapointed with how light it was. Other than that, it is stunning.
