SAFAVIEH Area Rug 6' Square - Natural Fiber Collection - Light Grey, Handmade Jute, Farmhouse Style, Chunky Textured Thick Pile (NF447G)

UPDATE: lasted no more than a year and a half, terrible considering how much the largest cost, $700 into the trash. Its only beautiful if it doesnt get used. My kids would always complain about feeling itchy after sitting or laying, and thats because the fibers get stuck on your clothes. Sucks its so beautiful, just not functional whatsoever.so here it goes. When you buy a product online, be smart enough to read the reviews before you purchase that product. With that being said, I purchased this rug knowing full well that it would come with dirt and a smell. So what did I do? I opened the package outside, left it there to air out, (but really it didn't smell bad, it smelled like dry grass) and vacuumed it OUTSIDE as well before bringing it into my house. I bought this rug after reading the reviews submitted about it and prepared myself to clean some before I could bring it in. It is that simple. Now that that is out of the way, time for pros and cons.PROS:1)it is BEAUTIFUL!! and it quite literally goes with almost any type of decor. Believe me.2) I needed an oversized area rug for my living room, and I luckily stumbled upon this one because it was one of the few to be over 8x10 (which most large rugs Max out at). This is 11x15 and it was perfect. The variety in sizes is really the pro here3) it honestly feels really good under your feet.4) did I mention it was beautiful??CONS:1) the obvious, maintenance. Yes, mine came with a good bit of dirt, I vacuumed it. Problem solved.2) you really do have to vacuum it thoroughly, it leaves fibers behind that if you lay on it (like my kids do) it'll stay on your clothes and make you itch. So make sure to vacuum the crap out of it.3) I'm really not sure how I'm going to clean this guy up. Like I said, I have kids, and for those who do will understand nothing ever lasts clean. I'm guessing spot cleaning will have to suffice. There really is no easy or thorough way to clean it.4) there will be some sticks in the fibers. Some I pulled out, others I just tucked them under the rug. I stepped on one and it actually hurt so I made sure to get them all before my kids got poked too.Bottom line: I would get this all over again, even considering the maintenance involved. It really is a beautiful rug and I don't know what else could have brought my living room thogether that way. The only reason I give it 4 Stars and not 5, is because of how dificult it will be to deep clean.

I purchased this 8x10 rug in the color natural brown. It arrived a day earlier than expected. The rug was well packaged and clean, without odor. It unrolled easily and layed flat as soon as we placed it on the floor. It is positively beautiful and its knobby details add great texture to the aesthetic of the family room. I wanted to give it 5 stars but removed one star because it has several organic pieces of woody jute that are a bit difficult to remove and hurt when we step on them. Overall, we love it.

I ordered this SAFAVIEH 10x14 jute rug for our living room, and while I was unsure at first about the chunky weave and higher pile, it has completely won me over. It adds beautiful texture and warmth to the space without being too rustic. I ordered both natural gray and natural ivory. The natural ivory was to light for my space so I selected “Natural Gray” it works perfectly with our mid-century interior.Shipping was fast and the rug arrived exactly as expected. Unpacking was simple. Like most jute rugs, it did shed a bit at first, so I recommend vacuuming 3–4 times and if possible, letting it air out or sit in the sun to relax the fibers. It flattens nicely with use and feels durable underfoot.What made the biggest difference was pairing it with the Everyday Performance rug pad from Rugs.com. The pad gives this thick rug just the right amount of cushioning while keeping it firmly in place. I’ve bought several pads from Rugs.com now, and they truly elevate the comfort and experience of any rug—this one included.This is now my favorite rug in the house. It’s held up beautifully and looks high-end, even in a high-traffic living area. Highly recommend this combo if you’re looking for natural texture, comfort, and quality.

I’ve owned jute rugs before, but this rug did seem to have a lot more debris within the rug when I first unpackaged it and laid it out. I just took my shop vac and used the wide attachment to vacuum it, which seems to have worked. There was a slight odor at first, which I think is normal considering the material, but that went away after a few days. I really like the pattern of this rug and the length was perfect for the amount of stairs I have. It is a thick rug. To me, it feels soft on the feet when walking on it. I did however buy a roll of padding and cut to size for each stair tread and that helped to cushion each step even more. I attached to each riser and stair tread with the Ryobi staple gun and used golden colored staples (Harbor Freight) which helped conceal them. I did go crazy with the amount I used, but the rug is firmly attached and doesn’t budge! I don’t have a high traffic household, so I definitely feel this rug will hold up for years. I absolutely love how it turned out!

I’m so happy with this jute rug! It adds the perfect earthy, textured touch to my space — exactly what I was going for. The natural color goes with everything and gives a warm, cozy vibe.It arrived well-packaged and laid flat pretty quickly. I was impressed by how sturdy it feels underfoot — it’s definitely high quality. There is a bit of the usual jute shedding at first, but that’s expected and has already started to settle down with regular vacuuming.One thing to note: it’s not super soft, so if you’re using it in a space where you’ll be sitting or playing on the floor, I recommend layering it over a softer rug or adding a rug pad for extra cushioning.Overall, it’s beautiful, well-made, and exactly what I wanted. Would absolutely buy again!
