I chose a medium (185 x 275cm) Kamran Coral Rug with a standard pad for my living room. It arrived on time, rolled up in a single cardboard box with an instruction manual and QR code for a video tutorial. Assembly was easy, taking me around 10 minutes. Some rugs are only available in one size. However, many come in a wide array of sizes and shapes, like the NuLoom Brielle Machine Washable Vintage Medallion Area Rug, which is available in 15 sizes and four shapes. Crafted from polyester with the brand's signature polyurethane protectant, this rug is conveniently resistant to stains and moisture damage—so you won't have to worry about spilling drinks (yes, even that hard-to-clean red wine!) Most sizes fit in a standard washing machine and can be tumble-dried on low heat or laid flat to air-dry. The only thing to note is the thin weave may bunch up when placed underneath furniture, but this can easily be corrected with carpet tape. If you want something plusher, warmer, and even more durable, you might consider a wool rug, like the Lorena Canals Almond Valley Washable Wool Rug. There are also cotton designs, like the Lorena Canals Grey Stars Washable Rug.

There are a number of reasons why Ruggable’s rugs are a great choice. Firstly, there are a huge number of designs to choose from, so there’s bound to be one that will adhere to your interiors look. And there are also a number of different sizes too, meaning there’ll certainly be one to fit every space in your house. To see how well the rug washed, we committed an act of pure sacrilege and spilt coffee on it, and allowed muddy paws to run free. The Kamran Coral Rug flaunts a timeless Persian-inspired design reminiscent of traditional Heriz rugs. It's slightly faded for a vintage look and comes in your choice of nine colorways. There are also seven rectangular sizes available, ranging from 2 x 3 to 9 x 12 feet, in addition to runners and round rugs in various sizes to choose from. We love the wide selection of options, a detail that allows this rug to work in any home and any size space. When it comes to washing the rug, it is simple, but washing instructions do vary depending on the type of cover you’ve opted for.Each rug is available in a range of dimensions too, so you should be able to find the perfect fit for your home. This rug might shed loose fibers a little at first, but this is normal for wool and will diminish after vacuuming it a few times. You can also machine-wash it as needed on a gentle cycle with cold water. While the price is a bit steep for a washable rug, it’s not necessarily out of line for wool rugs. And this one comes with an anti-slip rug pad, which makes it a pretty great value overall. We wish it came in more colors, but otherwise, we have no complaints. The makeup of a washable rug does differ from your typical professional- or spot-clean-only alternatives. "Most washable rugs are made with synthetic materials, although you can find higher-priced rugs made from cotton and wool," says laundry and dry-cleaning expert Rechelle Balanzat of Juliette Cleaners. As a result, they can feel slightly different and offer different levels of durability. As washable rugs become increasingly popular, the selection of options is growing to include a variety of different materials and types.

The design is elegant, with ornate detailing and pretty muted colours. The polyester topper isn’t especially soft, but still feels nice underneath bare feet. It’s also quite thin but it does have to fit in the washing machine; the cushioned pad should add some additional bulk if this is an issue for you. The standard pad doesn’t slide around on my laminate flooring, so you shouldn't need rug stoppers. Cleaning the rugRuggable is a reliable maker of attractive, easy-to-clean area rugs, and the Kamran Coral Rug is no exception. It's made of polyester and features a polyurethane coating to ensure resistance to staining and moisture damage. The rug itself is pretty thin—that's part of what makes it machine-washable—but it comes with your choice of a standard rug pad or a cushioned medium-pile pad for some extra plushness underfoot. The rug arrived rolled up in a cardboard box. To help with assembly, we watched the brand’s video tutorial, which we’d certainly recommend. You can only buy a Ruggable rug online as the brand does not have any stores in the UK. Are Ruggable rugs good for dogs? While the process was fairly easy, we’d advise making sure the area where you want to put your rug is completely clear of items so you can make sure there are no lumps or bumps. It’s worth noting that the corners of our rug didn’t completely align with the non-slip pad, owing to the fact the pad was smaller than the top layer – this made it difficult to ensure a neat fit.
