Shoppers are praising a discounted rug from Dunelm, with one saying it looks 'much more expensive than it was'. The Supersoft Lush Geometric Faux Fur Arch Rug in 'lush olive' is available from £49 to £151.20, and has received more than 270 reviews on the retailer's site.
Prices and colour options
Prices start at £49 for the smallest size of 80cm x 150cm. Other sizes include 120cm x 170cm (£55.20 down from £69), 160cm x 230cm (£129), and 200cm x 290cm (£151.20 down from £189). The rug also comes in four other colours: geometric navy, geometric ivory, geometric grey and geometric black.
Described as a 'perfect addition to a relaxing living room or bedroom', the rug features a carved arch design and a faux fur pile. The brand says it offers a 'foot sinking feeling you simply can't get enough of'.
What shoppers say
One reviewer wrote: "This has to be the softest rug I've ever bought. It does look really expensive and fits the living room well. I could've gone bigger, but this size still works for the space. Really happy with how beautiful the rug looks and it completes the room."
Another said: "Love the rug, which feels really different to anything else I could find for this kind of price. Very soft and easy to vacuum, and (it) looks much more expensive than it was. Love it."
A third shopper commented: "This mat is so soft under foot, love the geometric design." However, some reviews were more critical. One person noted the carpet is "not as thick as others I've purchased before from Dunelm", while another said the rug "moves on the floor" and suggested a non-slip underlay might be needed.
Care instructions and alternatives
Dunelm advises shoppers to unroll the rug and leave it for 24 hours on first use. To maintain it, they should shake it to remove trapped dirt and vacuum regularly without the beater brush. Any loose fibres should be cut with scissors, and spills should be blotted immediately and spot cleaned with a damp white cloth.
For alternatives, Dusk offers the Liv Hand Woven Wool Geometric Pattern Rug in off white for £149 (160cm x 230cm), handwoven from 100% wool. A budget option is the Habitat Faux Fur Cream Rug (80cm x 150cm) from £15 at Sainsbury's Habitat.
