I'm talking about the rugs that you are supposed to be able to wash and put back down. Do they work?
Do they wrinkle? Do you like it?

I have one and I like it a lot. I have it in my entry and it's easy to wash and put back down. It not plush/cozy at all so I wouldn't put one in my main living area but pretty great for a high traffic area. I would definitely buy again. Mine has not wrinkled and stays put when I lay it down.

I purchased one for my kitchen about 6 months ago. I unrolled it, was unimpressed with what a flat rug with a printed on design looks like in person, so promptly rolled it back up and sent it back.

I bought an entryway sized rug.
I didn't care for it at all. It was 'slick' and it felt really pre-printed, as far as looks.
Washes well, but is a paint in the butt to tack down on backer with the velcro, and not have it off a bit. And that was with a fairly small sized one.
What I disliked the most was the slickness. It didn't have a soft nap feel. And it was ugly. LOL

I have one, that flat rug with a printed design, in the kitchen in front of the sink, I love it...it is big, and actually stays in place. I have a big hairy dog, and it vacuums and washes well. I would buy one again.

I have two runners in my kitchen. 1 as the entryway rug and 1 in front of the sink area. They are thin, but they look beautiful. I have washed them a couple times and they still seem bright as the day I got them. They work perfectly for our needs. I recommend signing up on Ruggables website, then wait a couple weeks. They'll keep sending you discount emails. Go back in a few times and search for stuff and eventually I got a 20 or 25% off coupon. I don't remember exactly. Or I could send you a link and we both get a discount. Just ask and I can PM you.  |

I don't get the appeal. Why not just buy a rubber backed rug? Vs with the ruggable don't you have to buy 2 pieces? the rug and the no skid part?

For smaller size rugs rubber backed could be an option for sure. But I'm pretty sure I couldn't fit a rubber backed 5x7 or 8x10 rug in my home washing machine... |

Why not just buy a rubber backed rug? They can discolor your floors from the off gassing in the backing. It for sure discolors linoleum (my first house). I laid down brand new luxury vinyl plank floors and the instructions distinctly say not to use rubber backed rugs. I paid thousands for the floor, so I am not going to cheap out on the rugs. If you have ceramic or porcelain tile floors, I am sure any rug is fine. |

I have several and I really like them. They wash well and the colors stay bright. I’m happy to trade the plushness of a regular rug for the washability of a Ruggable.
For my bigger ones I roll them up tightly when I’m re-adhering them to their backings and that helps attach them more evenly.

Plus isn't the gripper thing they lay down, basically the same thing? |

They do have a new plush version.
I think the plus is that they are easily washable and if you wanted, you could just replace the top piece, vs. the Velcro backing piece.
We ordered a sample of four designs...just trying to figure out which is our favorite.

I don’t, but my dd has a large one on her deck, and it curls up on the corners. When I read the reviews for Ruggable, thats what a lot of the negative reviews were about. Also, it is very thin, so I wouldn’t use one in a main room, like a living room. I like thicker, comfy rugs at that area. But maybe in a laundry room.

it curls up on the corners I just saw someone post a fix for that on youtube. It might be worth a search. |
