Instagram has been showing me lots of ads for tumble rugs. Does anyone have them and if so do you like/ dislike them? I stayed away from ruggable because I heard it’s basically just like a canvas on the floor and I’m wondering if tumble is the same. Thank you!
I have a dog that sheds and am looking for a washable rug option and would like to hear everyone’s thoughts on which option above is best. I’m planning on getting either 8x10 or 9x12 with a cushioned pad. I know that Amazon is the least expensive but if Ruggable/Tumble are worth it, I would make the investment. Any suggestions are appreciated!

Are they worth it? I have two kids, a dog, and three cats. I want something that’s durable and will withstand the wear and tear. Anyone out there have a Ruggable or Tumble rug? Honest reviews please!
Help! I bought a huge tumble rug to help with having 2 huge dogs. I've had it for 2 months and so far no complaints. It lays down nicely, wipes off spots as advertised and vacuums easily. However, after 2 months it's just dirty and looks it. Literally, just looks like there's dirt all in it, cause there is.I washed as instructed and it looks EXACTLY the same. Dirty! I'm tempted to screw the washing instructions and go rough and high water temperature. I will be so sad if it looks this gross for forever. I don't care if the more intense wash ruins the wipeable coating. Anyone else found a better way to wash these rugs?

Tumble cheapest 8x10ft rug - $389
From seeing them in person:
Ruggable has a cheaper look to them where the design clearly looks like it’s been printed on.
Tumble rugs look higher quality more like the design is woven in the fabric. I’m not sure if they are better woven or printed, but they at least certainly look higher quality. Tumble also have a Spillproof aspect to them that really does work.
I’ve newly discovered the world of washable rugs only to not find any with good recommendations? I’m not looking for anything fancy, just something that can be thrown in the washing machine and won’t get sucked up by my vacuum. I’d be getting a 5x7 or even 5x6 if I can find it. I’ve seen Ruggable and Tumble Rugs but seem to only be seeing the bad reviews. I see that Amazon has some but again, more bad reviews than good. So I’m hopeful that Reddit can help me narrow down at least where I should buy one.
I got a tumble rug for my daughter's room and it's really great how washable it is, but it states very clearly that you shouldn't use it with robot vacuums due to the edges (and even with a regular vacuum you aren't supposed to vacuum the edges) the same goes for Ruggable brand. I've been closing her door during the day when it runs but we move soon and I was hoping to get one for the play area of the living room. The point of the Roomba is to keep me from all the vacuuming (especially with a dog who sheds).
What kind of rugs do folks have which seem to hold up to the roomba (even if they aren't washable)?
Potty training toddler.
We got a large wool rug for a steal at Home Goods but now after several years, it feels gross. We live in a rural area so it’s not easy to take it somewhere to clean. We wanted a rug in the living room since that’s where our son plays most of the time, and when he was crawling, we wanted something softer than hardwood.
We’ve spot cleaned it but it’s hard to clean.
Now I’m really intrigued by washable rugs (tumble, Ruggable). Has anyone had these? What’s your review?
Or maybe I’ll just get rid of rugs all together. I got rid of the rug in his room because I was tired of picking cheerios out of it and it was so much easier to sweep the hardwood! 😂
I love the tumble rug I have, but the pad is driving me nuts! I use it in the room for my foster kittens so dust and litter gets on the pad. So sometimes I want to vacuum the pad while the rug is in the washing machine, but the stupid puzzle piece pads get sucked up into the vacuum every time! I can’t take it anymore.
I’m actually contemplating switching to a Ruggable rug in there completely even though they’re so much more expensive and I don’t know if they’re water/pet proof like tumble rugs are, but if I can just get the Ruggable pad and it will work, it will solve all my problems.
I’m thinking about switching to washable rugs because keeping regular ones clean is getting annoying.
From what I’ve seen, there are a few different styles out there. Ruggable is popular for its two-piece system , and Tumble for being one-piece and non-slip. And then there are more straightforward washable rugs like GARVEE that seem focused on easy maintenance.
Washable sounds great. But I’m not sure which style actually works best long term. And I’m wondering how they hold up over time. Do they curl after washing? Does the backing start to wear out? And do they still feel okay to walk on after a few washes?
If you’ve been using washable rugs for a while, did they genuinely make things easier, or did they come with new annoyances? Would love to hear real experiences.
I would like a washable runner that lays flat even after several washes.
I bought $2,000 worth of Ruggable brand rugs. I read the reviews, everybody seemed to have a good time with them, so I went ahead and took the plunge. I have 300+ pounds of dog, and they are all maniacs that are constantly coming in and out of the house.
The rugs are ok looking, but the big selling point for me was the washability. I have a pro-grade top of the line extra large washer. It can fit the Ruggables easily, but the rugs are so big that the washer cannot properly clean them. The sheer size causes the rugs to act as a filter- keeping hair and debris inside the rug while water drains out. And, even with oxi clean and a number of other stain fighting cleaning products, after 2 years, they are stained up and gross looking.
I gave up and called the company that washed my old oversized rugs to come and take them, and they did, and they look great again, but now they have shrunk. And I never have dealt with that with my old area rugs. Apparently they wash a lot of Ruggables because the driver immediately recognized the pattern and said "you can't get them clean, can you? Ruggable keeps us in business". Which was a dumb thing to say and didn't help, but let the buyer beware I guess.
So, if you are thinking about buying Ruggables I highly suggest saving the money, buy some rugs you love for cheaper, and use the money you saved to just have your new rugs professionally cleaned.
I have a 9 x 12 Tumble rug that shrunk so the pad underneath is showing. The rug is in decent shape otherwise. I am considering cutting the pad an inch or two so it is fully covered. Is there a better solution anyone has tried?
Parents that have washable rugs - anyone ever buy Ruggable or Tumble rugs? Reviews? We have to replace our living room rug and I want something easy to keep clean, with two kids and pets.
I have an 8x10 Ruggable. It washes up nicely, and ours really needs to be washed more regularly because of our dog. However, the rug pad came in two pieces that NEVER align properly and make putting the rug back down a complete nightmare-as I get started and move from one half to the other, the pad that is now partly attached to the rug gets pulled toward the side I’m working and then the two pads overlap, creating a bump along the “middle seam”. Or the two halves wok themselves apart so the seam becomes a little dip down the center of the rug. If I try to get a corner into the pocket on the rug, it won’t lay flat. It takes me 45 min-hour to get it right, meaning that the pad is actually covered completely & not peeking out, no “bubbles” and no bump along the center line. It is so aggravating I am about to throw the entire thing into a fire! Why doesn’t Ruggable provide a one-piece pad for larger rugs?!
Have huskies and a walking, wild toddler now. Our current rug is heavy, weaved and disgusting. Terrible choice for our indoor/outdoor constant shedding guys esp going into rainy season
I’ve looked into ruggable , claiming they’re washable but I’ve seen a lot of reviews saying they’re so annoying to actually wash that people don’t do it.
Rugs def aren’t cheap. Any suggestions greatly appreciated. Thanks!
I bought a large (9x12) washable rug from Tumble. I went with Tumble because I love the pattern and I love the actual rug. However, I HATE the rug pad. It’s terrible. Also I’m fairly sure that this rug has shrunk even though I washed in cold and hung it to dry, and now the edge of the pad sticks out.
Has anyone ever purchased a different rug pad for a Tumble rug? I don’t want it to shift but honestly I feel like it moves around with this stupid rubber puzzle pad It came with.
