The Best Places to Buy Chic, Affordable Rugs

Freshen up your home with a stylish, budget-friendly rug from one of these top-rated retailers.

Rugs have the potential to alter the look and mood of any room, and they’re some of the easiest home decor items to upgrade if you want to try on a new look.

Even if you’re not looking to experiment, rugs suffer wear and tear from day-to-day living, accruing stains and thinning patches, so it’s likely that  they’re among the first items in your home that need to be replaced.

Thankfully, you won’t have to spend a fortune on a replacement. From affordable home decor brands like Crate and Barrel and IKEA to modern rug specialists Revival Rugs, here are 11 places where you can get affordable rugs online.

Ruggable

They offer a broad selection of low pile, stain-resistant bath mats and door mats (produced by collaborations with Jonathan Adler, Iris Apfel, and Barbie, to name a few). Each rug comes with a cover and a nonslip pad, so pick the design of your choice, and let your home washing machine cleanse away all the dirt and grime.
