## Questions & Answers

**Q: What size is shown on the picture/advertisement?**
A: True to size that you choose but rug isn't what it looks like. Thin but soft

**Q: Can a robot vacuum go over this without ruining the rug or vacuum?**
A: The shag is pretty long and very fine, not like regular carpet fibers. I would not recommend using a robot vacuum on it. But maybe try it and watch it the first time to make sure it doesn't tangle? I returned the rug I bought, I didn't like it, and they sent the wrong color.

**Q: Has anyone tried to wash it in washer?**
A: I wouldn't place it in the washer or dryer. These rugs are from China. How can I tell? It's the weak soft pad and design on the bottom of the rugs and the silky slippery fiber they call carpet. I buy them all the time because their very inexpensive, but they don't last after walking on them it causes the weak pad to stretch out, break down and the rug looses it's shape like a blanket laying on the floor. It's slippery due to the type of fiber they use. This fiber will matt up quickly after you start walking on the rug. When vacuuming turn the rollers OFF or you pull out the fibers and will have bald spots throughout your rug. I still buy them for the price and they look good until they break down. So I know what I'm getting and what to expect.

**Q: What is the exact measurement length  and width of the 5x8 rug laying flat?**
A: 5x8 is the exact measurement.

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Rug!! Horrible Chemical Smell after Unboxing though!
*by D***E on July 7, 2025*

Absolutely love love love the plushness of this rug!! However upon unpacking it,there was an overwhelmingly strong chemical scent which others have previously mentioned but didn’t see those reviews until AFTER I opened it. Despite it though I saturated the underside with febreeze and after about an hour the smell had all but subsided with the exception of a lingering smell which was finally gone in about a day!! It is very sleek and it functions as expected! While I and possibly so many others wish they didn’t use so much/many chemicals on it,I personally am very happy with this rug and will buy again in the future if need may be!! 10/10!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very soft and cozy
*by C***C on July 2, 2025*

This area rug is even better than I expected. It’s really soft and fluffy, making the room feel warm and comfortable. The texture feels great underfoot, and it doesn’t shed like some other rugs I’ve had in the past.It lays flat nicely and stays in place with a rug pad. The color is exactly as pictured and fits in perfectly with my space. If you’re looking for a cozy rug to add comfort and style, this one’s a great choice.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fun, cheery!
*by T***M on June 19, 2025*

Size was as stated. Very soft. Downside is that it is slippery. I have mine on the floor at the foot of the bed so not reallly a lot of traffic. Color is awesome.
