This is the rug that I was considering for my office. I like it, and the size (8’x8′) is a better fit for the room than the 5’x8′ one I have now. I’ve replaced my office chair though, so I’ll probably keep the rug I have now. Of course, now it’s on sale for 20% off, so this would be the time to buy if I’m going to. It has a certain KAPOW! that I like.

July 1, 2011 at 2:15 pmI feel like you could do something very cool around that rug. Any way to redo the chair to match both rugs and so that you alternate the room’s color scheme seasonally?
Keep in mind as a reader I am not taking into account any sort of practicality or cost- I just live vicariously through you bloggers ;)

July 1, 2011 at 3:27 pmI love this rug as well! I wish we had a space it would work in, but alas, not at the moment! Maybe in a future place….

July 12, 2011 at 1:17 pmI’m trying to decide if this is the right rug for my living room. Can someone who owns it (Bari?) tell me about the thickness of the pile (or if it’s woven)? I’m just not able to make that out from the picture and West Elm does not have that detail in their description. Thanks!

November 21, 2011 at 4:39 pmI bought this rug for our living room….any ideas on what curtains/window treatments would be good with this? we have blinds but would like some relatively inexpensive curtains as well

July 4, 2012 at 9:43 amWe’ve had this rug for about three weeks now. Love, love, love how it looks. To answer Jess’s question: It is a thick wool pile — sturdy and plush. We wanted a rug soft enough for our daughter to crawl on comfortably and this rug perfectly fits the bill. My one complaint is that it “sheds” and we have to vacuum almost everyday. I assume this will stop after awhile? Anyone have insight on the shedding problems?
