Border Chenille Rug

Incredibly soft and easy to clean, our chenille rug is ideal for high traffic areas. Herringbone weave lies flat, enabling it to be placed near doorways. Finished with a reinforced twill-tape border. Cotton-canvas/synthetic latex backing. Chocolate and Lavender are Catalog / Internet only. Imported.

The peace that completed the picture
January 27, 2013
I and my daughter love this rug, so soft, modern and between girl and teen. So it combines with any quilt. I haven't yet washed it, but I notice that it doesn't put on much dirt and doesn't throw fleece.

Love this rug!
October 23, 2012
I bought this rug for my son's room and I love it! It took about 1-2 weeks to flatten out, but it looks great. It has held up to 3 active kids. The navy is so handsome and has not faded. Very pleased!

Pretty, functional, well-made
April 12, 2012
Just received this rug and am very happy with it. Well-made and sturdy, does not buckle when laid on top of carpet. No shedding. Luckily we have not had to test its clean up ability yet. Would definitely recommend, it is good quality.

Poorly Made
December 6, 2011
Hopefully this is an exception - but when this rug arrived, we didn't even unwrap it more than 12 inches before we could see several brown stains, a black ink stain and the edging was all frayed and coming apart (the lines on the trim were actually wavy it was so pulled). My daughter's room is pink and brown/beige so I thought his would be perfect- however the trim is actually white and green, not beige. The trim was also much wider than I expected, and the rug felt rather flat. It was soft, but not "cushy" at all. We are returning the rug to the store and waiting on our full refund. It was weird - as if it was a second hand/used rug. I wondered why this rug was so much cheaper than the other rugs at PB Kids and perhaps this is why.

Beautiful rug, except it CANNOT BE CLEANED!!
August 18, 2011
I was initially so happy with this purchase, because the rug is really beautiful. I bought a relatively expensive rug pad to fit under this rug to protect it. Within a week of foot traffic, the rug started looking filthy and the dirt simply cannot come out. No professional cleaners in my city will touch it because of its natural fibers. I have yet to find a cleaning solution that will make even the most remote improvement. It looks so dirty after 7 months of owning it that I just want to throw it away. I'm furious that it attracts and holds onto dirt so easily. I will NOT be buying another PB rug again. My son's $35 rug from a low-cost store looks as perfect as the day I took it off the shelf. I'll be looking for a similar style for my girls' room. I'm VERY disappointed in this PB rug.

Love the Rug BUT...
July 20, 2011
We were very happy with the colors and quality of the rug when it came in. We also liked the fact that the rug didn't shed at all. The only downfall is that we have 2 large dogs in the house and one day the dogs walked on the rug and left muddy paw prints. I immediately got the carpet cleaner out and the mud didn't come out and the rug looks dingy now. I even tried soap and water and now in that place its discolored looking. I will be contacting Pottery Barn to help with this matter.

The rug, including the colors, looks exactly as the picture online shows. Very nice rug but I would definitely recommend a rug pad for cushion which I will be getting for myself.

Great Looking/ Great Value

This rug is good looking and a great value. I recommend a pad to make it more plush. The feel of the rug is very soft.

Stained by WATER
December 14, 2010
This was the strangest thing. I ordered this rug in September or October and it's been in my daughter's big girl room ever since. My daughter hasn't moved into the room yet and we rarely go in there. The rug looked FANTASTIC and everyone who saw it complimented it.
A couple of weeks ago, we were in there and I spilled a glass of ICE WATER. I immediately blotted it up with a white towel.
A couple of days later there was a very noticeable stain. The pink had turned orange! I purposefully poured water on another area. Same thing!
I've never seen water stain ANYTHING!!!
On the plus-side, PBK's CS was INCREDIBLE. They gave me a full refund for the rug even though I had had it for months and didn't have a receipt.
We are trying the Polka Dot Border rug now! PLEASE DON'T GET THIS RUG.

Weird odor
November 26, 2010
I ordered this rug about a month ago and was very pleased with the way it looked. I have had it for over a month and have noticed a weird odor which I had hoped would dissipate and it did not. I googled pbk rug smell and found pages of costumers complaining of the same odor. I would not recommend this rug.

Great rug
October 28, 2010
This is a great rug. The pink is a nice soft hue. The weave is tight and not soft, but still very comfortable under bare foot. The green and white twill tape border is super cute as well--green is perfect match to other PBK green items. I was unsure about the overall pattern/weave based on the online photo but in person it is a nice detail that is adds to, not overpowers, the rug itself. The rug has a laxtex backing which holds it steady on hardwood but the rug is very thin so if you need low clearance this is great. Otherwise add a pad for cush. Very pretty yet durable. I wish they made it in larger sizes -- this would make a great full-room sized rug.

soft colors are gentle on the eyes
September 20, 2010
The rug took one week to arrive. Colors are true to the picture above. It's not what I would call soft, but it is a tight weave and should hold up well. I would recommend putting a pad under it for extra cushioning and to prolong the life of the rug.

2nd times a charm?
August 26, 2010
I purchased this for our daughters room. I was very excited when it arrived!! We opened it up and the entire rug looked like it had black tar scattered threw it??? I called PBK up and they are sending me out a replacement. It won't b here till next week. Hopefully the 2nd time around will be better? On the other side I like the rug and was pleased with the quality

Daughter Loves RUG
June 10, 2010
I am a first time pottery barn buyer and I love the carpet its cute and the colors are just as described on the website. It is soft which is good (and looking at the picture i was worried it was a more rougher material). It arrived SUPER FAST I talking about from the time I ordered it to the time it arrived at my door step was 3 days. WOW. My only regret is I wish I bought the bigger size since I love it so much but my daughter wouldnt let me exchange it for the bigger one cause she didnt want to part with it she loves it so much. Thank you pottery barn I am now a new commited customer.
