I really love my outdoor rug, but ... I'm listing my issues.
I love my outdoor rug, and I paid a fair price for it.
However, I have a few problems with Rugs Direct.
1. They send constant email updates about the order. When you click "View Order," you have to go back to enter the purchase number. This is aggravating.
2. There were no updates on the order, yet the same email was sent almost every day.
3. The outdoor pad suggested for use under the rug didn't have a clear image on the website, so it was difficult to judge. I ordered it anyway, but what I received was a large, cheap-looking plastic pad that I'm sure is durable and will prevent slips. I could have gotten that elsewhere for a better price since it cost about the same as the rug. I'm sure it'll be just fine, but I wish they were more transparent about the quality and material.
4. While I received the outdoor pad weeks early, it took a very long time to receive the carpet itself, and the delivery date kept changing.
In summary, I love my rug, and I was able to cut the rug pad to the exact shape with scissors alone.
Rugs Direct needs to cut down on their automatic emails, particularly when there's nothing to report. Also, when you click on the provided link to view orders, it should automatically take you to the order without requiring you to enter the order number.

The carpet color was very different from the description. I wish I had read more reviews before purchasing it since many others had similar complaints.Service was fine but very irritated that I had to pay $58 to return. When reviewers make similar comments, perhaps change your description. Will not order from RugsDirect again due to return charge.

The rug was defective. It shed like crazy. Customer service said the amount of shedding was "normal" without seeing any pictures or even asking for pictures. They refused to pay return shipping for this clearly defective rug, which I think is their regular way of doing business. The best they would do is give me a slight discount on return shipping. I will NEVER do business with this company.

Ordered 2 identical area rugs, only 1 has shipped and the other one is on back order. Issue is we purchased for consistent decorating and we have to pay extra to ship out of the country with minimums for freight forwarders and warehouse expenses with the shipper. We would have selected an alternative option if known on front end.

Hello,
We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience and frustration caused by the split shipment of your rug order, especially given your need for consistent decorating and the additional international shipping complexities. We understand how important it is to have all items delivered together, and we regret that this was not communicated upfront. We are truly sorry this situation has created extra costs and difficulties for you.

One of the sample rugs had no weave in several places, running the length of the small sample, just bare backing on the side facing up. Very odd for you to send out a sample of that poor quality.

Quality of these rugs are great. I’m impressed and would buy again from this company. I can also compare the rug pad to a competitor and believe that this is a much better quality pad thanrugs.com.
