SAFAVIEHArea Rug 8x10 - Madison Collection - Large - Cream & Blue, Boho Chic Medallion Distressed Design, Non-Shedding & Easy Cleaning, Ideal for Living Room, Bedroom, Office, Dining Space (MAD473B)

Another gorgeous rug from Safavieh! As I had hoped, it has a lot of black and "greige" along with pops of bright color. Perfect for my rec loft which has lime green walls, black, gray and white furnishings, greige flooring, and curtains with pops of the same bright colors. This nice soft rug looks as though it was made especially for this room, and brings everything together perfectly. Love it! So happy!P.S: I'd like to offer advice to the ppl who rated the rug with one or two stars, who seem to have similar complaints and are, I think, unfairly blaming the manufacturer. 1) If your rug seems misshapen at first, or has weird bulges or an uneven shape, this will relax and self-correct over time as you walk on it. To speed up the process, pile stacks of books or other heavy objects on the bulges to flatten them out. 2) For the writer who complained that the rectangle shape was more like a parallelogram, the solution is to have 2 ppl-- one grabbing each diagonal corner, and pull diagonally, to stretch it into the correct shape. These rugs have a lot of potential stretchability, especially when warm, and it will work! And finally 3) As far as slippage goes, these are not like bath rugs which come with a no-slip backing that deteriorates over time and would ruin your wood floors! No one would want that! You are supposed to buy a pad for any rug, not just Safavieh brand, to increase the lifespan and comfort of your rug and to stop slippage (if you order a non-slip pad). You are supposed to trim the pad with scissors or a carpet knife so that it won't peek out and your rug edges will lie flat. I find that placing furniture on the rug with the pad also prevents slippage, even though my pad isn't labeled non-slip. Alternatively you can use small amounts of carpet tape at each corner. Hope this helps everyone!

I first bought the Ivory/light blue door mat to check out the colors and thickness of the rug. Worked well with my decor, so I ordered the 9 X 12 rug for my living room. It arrived folded and tightly bound but the wrinkles came out after rolling the carpet overnight. So, I ordered a second one, also 9 X 12, for my dining room. This one was more wrinkled than the first one and took more effort to remove the wrinkles. Here are some points to know about these rugs. First, the pattern and color variations differ based on the size of the rug. The larger rugs have a lot more of the yellow and ivory than the smaller one and the pattern, while similar, is not the same. As others have stated, the size is off. The first one was 8'3" X 12' and the second one was 8'5" X 12 '. The light colored part of the rug is a mix of ivory and tan. It is not just ivory.The rug is a little thin but not so much as to look cheap. Actually, looks and feels great with a 1/4 inch rug pad. Also, if you find it necessary to steam out some of the wrinkles, do it on the underside of the rug. It is the backing that has the creases in it, not the pile. Steaming the pile does not work. I love the rugs. They look way more expensive than they are. They are good quality. And...mine did not have any odor at all.

This review is after a couple months of use. This is a good rug for the price point. It is soft enough to lay down on without the prickly feeling of some other rug offerings in this price range. There are a lot of colors in this rug which means it can tie into a variety of decor choices well. I cannot assess whether it would slip or not on a hard surface but atop other carpet, this rug holds its place and doesn’t have corners that fray or stick up. There was no odor with this rug and so the room smells neutral - just as it did before. I’d say this rug looks as good as it did on the day I first rolled it out into the space I have it in.This rug also washes easily and does not fade if spot treated with common household carpet cleaning products. Overall this is a winner - it’s sizable and functional - and if something ever happened to it, it’s affordable enough to replace without breaking the bank.

Not super grippy (slips easily) but pretty thick, soft, and bright colors. Seems to be of good quality! It doesn't vibe with my living room but it seems to be a great rug!

I purchased a larger matching rug for my bedroom and realized a runner would look great with it. I also bought two smaller rugs for the entryway. They are so reasonably priced and easy care. They don’t ever look dirty and vacuum up great. Short pile .Love them!

I bought this area rugs 3 years ago, and I decided to write this review because this rug has held up so well. I absolutely love the colors and pattern. I put carpet pad underneath it and it's so cozy under foot. Don't sit on the fence with buying this area rug .

Very nice rug... love colors and quality.

holds up well; looks nice; doesn’t shed; soft; pets enjoy laying on it
