Review on Loloi II Layla Collection LAY-13 Antique / Moss, Traditional 7'-6" X 9'-6" Area Rug by Jessica Hernandez

Unlike some reviewers, I purchased this rug knowing it is a thin, foam printed knock off of an actual hand knotted antique, Persian rug. They are typically marketed as "performance” rugs but I feel like the attention to detail and craftsmanship of this product is well worth its affordable price and this is the absolute best price I’ve seen for this style of rug. Some furniture stores near me sell for much higher prices. As much as I would love a high end rug, I need something practical that will hold up to lots of foot traffic and a dog. This style is ideal for that. So easy to clean! The texture is soft, not place mat like some have mentioned, but I see their point. We have a thick pad underneath which makes it very comfortable. I believe some colors and designs of this series may be better than others and I’ve lucked out with one of the better ones, IMO. My reservation for buying one like this was the fear of it looking cheap but this version is actually quite beautiful. I’ve already received compliments. The blue is more blue in less light but when the natural light shines on it, it is more turquoise. The clay/brick red tones on the corners are lovely as well as the super pretty pink medallion in the center. I've done the farmhouse grey, white and black for years and feel like this rug has inspired me to finally make a change in an more eclectic direction. I’m happier with my purchase than I expected to be. I would also like to commend ebay for making purchases like these less stressful with the option to return if dissatisfied. Fortunately, I’m pleased with my selection and will be keeping it.
