Beautiful rug
"We bought this rug in the 5x8 size when our son was a baby. He's 4 now, so we wanted to expand and get a bigger rug. We love this rug so much we just bought the larger 8x10 size. The colors are beautiful, the design simple and cheery, and the rug is soft and cushy underfoot. It's a terrific investment. I'm sure he and we will enjoy it for many years!"

This rug grows with your child!
"I bought this rug when my daughter was a baby, for her nursery. It is soft & durable & the colors worked so well with her room decor - especially her curtains & crib bedding! Now, that she is a toddler, we are creating a new room w/ new decor for her, but the rug will work great in her new playroom. It was a great investment because it works with so many types of decor, girls or boys & in any type of room, bedroom/playroom.. We bought the larger size, and were happy that we did go bigger, the colors added so much!"

great rug but colors more muted than on-screen
"This is a fantastic rug at a great price. It is hard to tell from the photo, but the squares are about 1ft in size (so there are more squares than shown in the graphic online for the 8x10 size). The colors are strong, but not as "primary" as they looked on my computer screen (the red is more of a rus, the yellow more gold, etc). Still a great rug for a kids room and will go with many color schemes."

Fantastic!
"What a gorgeous rug for our son's room! The colors are great, nice big blocks of vibrant colors. And with the pad it's so soft and comfortable to sit on; a plus for a rug in a kid's room!"

Nice rug
"This is a good rug - deep colors, but not garish. It does shed quite a lot, but vacuuming cleans it up nicely. My 3-year old has been very happy!"

Adorable!
"I bought this rug for my sons nursery. I love it! It looks great with the not a peep bedding . It adds a perfect amount of color to the room. The colors in the rug are warm and hard to get sick of. I am totally happy with the quality and how it looks ."

Really Comfy and Versatile Rug
"I bought this rug for a more grown-up look in my 12 and 10 year old boys' room since the colors are not bright and it goes with everything. The only reason for 4 rather than 5 stars is that I have to trim the carpet every so often with a scissor."

Wasn't for us
"I loved the colors on this rug as they enabled it to coordinate with anything. Alas, the rug loops kept comming unhooked so we sent it back.
Bought the flyover rug instead"

Love the look, only like the wear
"I got this rug well over a year ago and have always LOVED how it looks in the room. Unfortunately, it is not holding up super well with the little kids running and playing on it. A number of loops have pulled up and it is very hard to fix. Not sure I would recommend for a young child's room."

very festive
"This rug is an amazing focal point in my soon to be son's room. It is cheerful and appropriate for a baby without being pastel (I hate pastel). The pile is great for a kid -- no getting toys lost in the rug and will clean and hide dirt well. There were a couple or rogue strands of yarn that needed to be removed from its edge to clean it up but otherwise we are very pleased."

"I was so surprised when I opened this rug up. It is so soft and really durable. My boys are extremely rough on everything and this has held up nicely."

Beautiful but wish it was cheaper!
"A beautiful rug, colors fit well with everything. My daughter loves it. I just wish it was a little cheaper - I have seen comparable color-block rugs at other retailers at a more competitive price."

"We received this rug about a week ago and it's even better in person than on the website. It's a nice, high quality rug for a decent price."

Great Rug
"I purchased this rug for my kids playroom/schoolroom. It arrived quickly and looks great. I didn't order the rug pad but it is still very cushy without the pad and it is over hardwood floors. I don't know about the fraying yet but my three kids use the playroom all day everyday for Homeschooling from 9-4 and to play in the rest of the time. I have not noticed any fraying etc. after three weeks of constant use. In fact as far as staining one of them spilt spaghetti sauce on it and we were able to clean up the stain quickly and without a permanent mark."

Love the versatility
"We've just converted our nursery to a "big boy" room, and this rug is perfect. It's soft and cushiony, and the range of colors allows us to incorporate virtually any color into the room decor and it looks great."

So Happy!
"We've had this rug for almost 3 years now, and I still love it. We got the largest size, so it sees a lot of action. It has held up great and still looks fun and stylish. There are times when little snag-like-pieces come up, but since we keep it in the play room (and it gets a lot of use) that's to be expected. It's also great for spills. When juice is spilled, the juice sits on top and a towel just soaks it up. It's still has all it's cushion too, and my daughter loves to play on it."

Growing rug
"I really like that the pattern and color palette will grow with my child, so that this rug can be used for years to come. There is some pilling/snagging, but the rug cleans up pretty nicely with a vacuum cleaner. It is soft underfoot."

I love this rug!
"I purchased this rug for my family/playroom. The colors are great! It makes a sophisticated statement w/ our taupe walls. The kids love to lounge on it while they read, play, watch tv, etc. Great buy:)"

Enjoying Rug
"We bought this for our girls bedroom over a year ago in the pastel colors and really like it. The fibers have shagged a little but trim up nicely. The only problem we have had is that stains do not come out easily and show up on the pastel colors."
