nuLOOM 8x10 Moroccan Blythe Area Rug, Dark Grey, Faded Bohemian Design, Stain Resistant, For Bedroom, Dining Room, Living Room, Hallway, Office, Kitchen, Entryway

I, for whatever reason, thought this was an indoor/outdoor rug. I believe that’s because it showed in the indoor/outdoor rug search on Amazon. It’s definitely not, unless you live in an area that doesn’t have any rain and a covered patio. However, that was my own fault and have it outside. For the price, having to replace it won’t be an issue. I absolutely love this rug and it’s incredibly soft and gorgeous. It literally cannot be beat for this price point.If you’re an idiot sandwich like me and put it outside in an open area, here’s what to expect: supreme water absorption that takes a few days to dry. Because of the material it’s made from, it will not attract mold or mildew. That’s a plus. Minimal fading from the sun, if any. Easy to clean and sweep. Very soft to walk around barefoot. Edges don’t curl, even after getting soaked from the rain. The material hasn’t unraveled yet, but that’s to be expected from an INDOOR carpet that isn’t supposed to be fully saturated with water and open to the elements. Expect to have to clean it frequently as outdoor elements will dirty the cream color quickly.I would fully recommend this rug as an indoor carpet. The colors are wonderful. It’s definitely cream and grey. The grey pattern is very neutral and will blend with almost any aesthetic. This isn’t white or off-white, in my opinion. If it’s durable to without outdoor shenanigans, it can definitely withstand your children, pets, and significant others that act like children and pets.

I've been very happy with this rug! It's held up nicely in my daughter's nursery. The pattern keeps it from looking dirty right away for being a light colored rug. It's not thick, easy and quick to vacuum,, durable. It's not super soft or anything but it is perfect for making her nursery a bit cozier and warmer on the wood floor. It was very affordable in my opinion.

It's a pretty good rug for the price, It seems like good quality and the colors are nice. The only problem is that it's not 6' across. More like 5'11". I know it's just an inch, but it's listed as 6' across.

This review is of the 8'x10'. (I first ordered the 6'7"x9' and was surprised there is a difference between the two; that one is compared below). Very pleased! Lovely rug, seems good quality. It's not plush, but you can look at the picture and tell that's not what you're ordering. However, even though it's thin the fibers are soft and pretty. Color is true to pic (I got off-white/gray). Rug laid flat with no creases within one day. And the stain resistance is terrific! The FIRST night we laid it down my husband spilled RED WINE on it. Ugh. But we grabbed the Resolve, treated it immediately, and there's NO TRACE of any strain whatsoever. Amazing. We have 3 small boys though so we'll see how this holds up over time.Regarding the 6'7"x9' version. I returned it and ordered the bigger one simply because once I put it in my space I decided I really preferred a larger size. I debated just making due with the smaller one because of thr significant price difference, but I'm really glad I swapped them. It's odd, but it's like there were 2 different manufacturers. Fibers were not as soft and shiney on the smaller version, and we had it laid down for 3 or 4 days but it never fully flattened out. It also came with major creases that we couldn't flatten out. None of those issues on the 8x10. Thankfully I had accidentally kept the plastic wrapper this rug came in (shoved it in a coat closet when company showed up and forgot about it!) so I rolled it back up into it, put some packaging tape around it, and was able to return it for free to Amazon with no issue. SO happy with Amazon's easy return policy!

Let me tell you, this nuLOOM Moroccan Blythe Area Rug is a real piece of work. If you're in the market for a rug that will make you question your taste in interior design, this is the one for you.First of all, let's talk about the size. The 5' x 7'5" dimensions are a bit of a head-scratcher. Who decided that was a good size for a rug? It's too big to fit in a small space, but too small to really make a statement in a larger room. I guess if you have an oddly shaped room that's 5' x 7'5", this rug would be perfect. But for the rest of us, it's just an awkward size.Now let's move on to the design. The Moroccan Blythe pattern is actually quite nice. It's got that trendy boho-chic vibe that everyone seems to be into these days. But the black color? What were they thinking? It's like they took a beautiful design and decided to make it as boring as possible. The black just sucks all the life out of the room.And let's talk about the quality. I've only had this rug for a few months and it's already falling apart. The edges are fraying and the fibers are starting to come loose. I don't know if I just got a defective rug or if this is the norm for nuLOOM rugs, but either way, it's not great.So overall, I'm giving this rug a solid one star. It's an awkward size, a boring color, and the quality is subpar. But hey, at least it's making me laugh every time I look at it. So if you're in the market for a rug that will make you chuckle, go ahead and buy the nuLOOM Moroccan Blythe Area Rug. Just don't expect it to last very long.The best area rug parameters will depend on your specific needs and preferences, but here are some factors to consider:1. Size: The size of your rug will depend on the size of the room and the placement of furniture. You want to make sure the rug is large enough to fit under all of the furniture in the room, or at least the front legs of larger pieces.2. Material: There are many different materials to choose from, including wool, cotton, jute, silk, and synthetic blends. Consider the durability, texture, and maintenance requirements of each material before making a decision.3. Color and pattern: The color and pattern of your rug should complement the rest of the room's decor. Neutral colors and simple patterns work well in minimalist spaces, while bold colors and intricate patterns can add interest to more eclectic rooms.4. Pile height: The pile height refers to the length of the fibers in the rug. A shorter pile is easier to clean and maintain, while a longer pile can feel more plush and luxurious.5. Shape: Most area rugs come in rectangular shapes, but you can also find round, square, and oval options. Consider the shape of your room and furniture when choosing a rug shape.6. Price: Area rugs can vary widely in price, so consider your budget when making a decision. Keep in mind that a higher price tag often means higher quality and durability.
