Last year we removed the carpet from our family room and added wood floors. I LOVE having the wood floors and began the process of searching for the perfect rug! I love the look of natural fiber rugs, especially Sisal, but it is just soooo rough! I have 2 small children who will be crawling and lying on this rug so it had to be soft. After tons of looking I found the perfect Jute Rug!
Since this rug was going to be in our family room I had several requirements for it. It had to be large, soft, pretty, hold up well, low maintenance and I didn’t want to spend a ton.
So I started off on the great rug search and ended up buying the Gray Bordered Chunky Woven Jute Rug. I honestly could not be more happy with this rug!
JUTE RUG REVIEW
STYLE: It is exactly the look I wanted. It is neutral with lots of texture and goes perfectly with most decor styles. I bought the gray border, but it comes in many other border colors as well
FEEL: This rug is very soft for a natural fiber rug. Would a shag rug be softer….yes BUT this one is great! My kids and I crawl all over it, lay on it, play on it, etc. I do not have a rug pad under it. You could add one for extra padding, but It doesn’t need one.
LOW MAINTENANCE: I was warned about natural fiber rugs shedding a lot. I have not experienced that at all with this rug. I really don’t see any shedding! Maybe because the bottom of this rug is lined and most aren’t? I am not sure, but I have had the rug a year and it has been great! No shedding! I also heard that natural fiber rugs stain easily….this may be true, but I have not experienced it. I spilled diet coke on it and was able to wipe it right up. Now, we have not had red juice or anything spilled on it so I cannot speak to that, but with 2 kids, a husband and a cat in our room with the most traffic….I don’t see any stains!
SIZE: This rug comes in many sizes. I bought the 9×12 for our room. It also comes in
PRICE: I could not believe the amazing price of this rug!! Like I mentioned I bought the 9×12 and it retails for $399, but I bought it on sale.
Right now it is on sale too! It is $319 with FREE shipping!

Hi! Thanks for stopping by!
Have you ever had a spill on the rug? Curious how well it cleans. Thank you,
Heather
I spilled a diet coke on there and cleaned it up really fast with wet towels. It came right up. I have heard jute rugs stain but I have not had a problem. I have not had pets or any colored juices spilled on it though so I cannot give an opinion on that. I have been super happy with it and for the price if I did have to replace it in 5ish years when my kids aren’t little anymore I felt good about it because it wasn’t a crazy expensive rug.
What are your thoughts of rugs on carpeted areas? This would be perfect for our hardwoods in our living room but have fallen in love w/one for our playroom from Lulu&Georgia although playroom is already carpeted at this time. Too much?
I actually love rugs on carpet! They add texture, color and interest to a room. If you found one you love I say go for it!
I love it, i will to try design my home such as
