Antep Rugs Oriental 2x3 Traditional Medallion Indoor Runner Rug Siesta (Beige Cream, 2' x 3')

The color scheme of our living room is very earthy.. green couch, yellow wallpaper and lamps, with shades of brown black or taupe. Our couch is an actual vintage couch, so it was originally an emerald /jade green 70 years ago, but now it has faded into a glorious vintage, silvery green. I love our couch, and it is the focal point of the living room. After much consideration and hours of thoughtful contemplation for which kind of rug we might want to have in our living room, we landed on these rugs. At first, I thought we wanted black for a dramatic effect. When we receive the black rugs, they were beautiful and very soft and nice quality. Unfortunately, I very quickly realized the black pattern was too busy and dark for the room. Thankfully the black looked great with the 8x10 in our bedroom and the 6x9 in the dining room, so we kept them, but we still needed to figure out a new plan for our living room rugs. I had been eyeballing the green before I bought the black, but hesitated because I was keenly aware of the review debate about the true color of green I would receive. Armed with the knowledge that these are at least a decent quality rug, and the peace of mind, knowing I could really return it if I wanted to, I decided to just go for it and purchase the green. Not only do we have no regrets now, but I can report back that the green rug is definitely a light mint / sea foam / faded emerald green color. My pictures make it look darker than it really is and I think that is what is going on with the manufacturer photos as well. It’s a difficult color to photograph, but if you can set your trust issues aside, and believe all of us who told you it is a lighter green. It really is a great color and it has this calming vintage patina look to it that is spectacular. I already feel more calm. Just looking at it for 20 minutes. I also have another interesting observation to share with you. We purchased a black 8 x 10 and green 8 x 10. We also purchased the same colors in 6 x 9. Four rugs total. What I noticed right away on my foot is that the 8 x 10 rugs are not as soft to the touch, as the 6 by 9s are. Overall it’s not a big deal, but just thought I would mention it. I suppose if somebody is really concerned about things like that, this is where you would want to pay more money for a more consistent quality. Overall, we are really happy with these rugs and I’m sure they will be enjoyed it for many years to come. Happy rug shopping!

Beautiful rug at a great price

I have been using this rug in my front entry for a couple months. When it was new I reverse-rolled it and the curl and it flattened out nicely in a few days. It seems to resist dirt and wear patterns. It is attractive and the round shape works well in my odd-shaped entry. I am happy with the color as it was extremely hard to find a rug this shade of green. I was trying to find something that wouldn't clash with my existing rug in the adjoining space, and most of the green rugs I could find were more olive or sage than what I was looking for. I also like the jute backing and the weight of the rug. I didn't want a non-skid backing because of previous experience with the rubber backing getting brittle and flaking off. I use a non-skid rug pad and it stays put and doesn't wrinkle or bunch up . My only suggestion for improving this line of rugs would be that adding just a little bit of a fifth color might give it a richer look with little to no impact on the price.

We love this rug! It looks great in the living room. I wish it was a bit thicker but so far, it's very nice.

I was worried about the color when ordering because you never know if the reds will be too bright or too orange. This was PERFECT! An accurate luscious burgundy. The rug is durable and padding is strong. It laid flat after 24hrs and a nice vacuum with no stubborn lumps! High Quality at a lower price than I could find in stores. Love it!!

I wanted an oriental-style rug but didn't want to spend a lot of money and so I wouldn't care if something spilled on it. I purchased the 5x7 size. I like the color (green & beige) and it's soft under bare feet. The only negative I have is that the design is very muted and not crisp - but what can you expect from a rug that is not hand-woven and 100x more expensive? One caveat: it's made in Turkey and backed with sisal (made from a cultivated plant in the agave family), which has a very strong odor for the first week or so. It's not horrible (at least to me), but it might be something to consider. It goes away after about a month. It comes rolled pretty tight, but will flatten out quickly. I highly recommend using the Gorilla Grip Thick Extra Plush Felt and Natural Rubber Pad to prevent slipping if used on hardwood floor. It adds cushioning and saves your floors - don't buy a cheap floor pad for hardwood flooring!

I like the navy rug, beautiful color and design. Good value for the money..I know sometimes new rugs have a chemical smell, but still strong after 2 weeks after vaccuuming etc. I will try and put it outside for a few days. I have not had this problem with my other Antep Rugs..I think it's the blue dye..returning. Smell does not dissipate

Beautiful appearance and quality look. Looks good when compared to my wool Karastan rug in my living room. Impressed with value for price!
