I bought this rug to replace a natural sisal rug in my living room that was nice in appearance, but scratchy underfoot and didn't hold up to my pets occasional accidents. This rug is thick with a nice tight weave. The color is a light brown with greenish undertones that looks very nice. It is a natural fiber rug so expect that it is not the sort of rug that you would sit on and be comfortable. The texture feels smooth but bumpy underfoot, and I like this-walking barefoot on it is like a mini massage for my feet. Although quality and appearance are important, the real test is being able to clean accidents that occur from my dogs. There have been a couple mishaps, but the rug cleaned without a trace by using my portable rug cleaner ( yes, I was able to use water) and drying the spot with a fan. I have had sisal and jute rugs in the past and they always showed the area that was spot cleaned and I ended up tossing them after a time. I chose the sea grass for the first time because it is from the sea and logic told me it should hold up to exposure to water when needed, and it does.

This is exactly what I wanted. It is a resistant natural fiber. I have 2 big dogs and a roomba that vacuums every day. I had a different natural fiber rug before that was not handling the right traffic. That being said, it is still a natural fiber, so you will see some loose ends every once in a while. How I handle it? I tuck the loose end back and put a drop of super glue. It is seagrass, so when you get it, it will smell like hay for a couple of days. Also, it's a fresh seagrass and it definitely looks green when you receive it. You will probably freak out (like me), but give the fiber time to mature and the green will slowly evolve to a tan color. That is how seagrass behaves.

Safavieh natural fiber basketweave seagrass rug is very nice and has help up well. Good quality rug.

I am so happy with this rug! I was having difficulty deciding on which style to purchase but decided to go with Natural Marine seagrass with the beige binding since I have a chenille sofa with a small tweed tone on tone pattern. I was comparing the weave to several other styles on Great Offer Stock. I didn't want the weave of the rug to be too similar to the pattern of the sofa. I panicked when the rug was delivered and I saw how large the pattern was. I feel it is a little deceptive in the pictures. One weave is approximately 3/4 inches while the cross weave is approx. 2 inches. So it was a bigger pattern then expected. I was also expecting a golden natural color seagrass and this definitely has a green tint. Neither the pattern or the color were a problem and look fantastic! I am impressed with the quality, especially for the price! Since I ordered a 9 x 9 square, I was going to wait to see if I actually needed a rug pad. The bottom has a felt like covering with little grippy dots. I have stone floors and it seems fine without a pad in this size. When I unrolled the rug, the edges were curled a little, but laid down flat within hours so I did not have to add any double stick carpet tape to prevent it from being a tripping hazard. The border is a warm golden beige approx. 1 1/2 inches wide on top. Because it is cotton, it is starting to show dirt in our high traffic area. I will scotchguard soon. While it is not a plush carpet, I did not expect that, but it isn't really uncomfortable. I have had previous rugs that were more like a rope with little fibers sticking up, this is not like that at all. I would not hesitate to place this in a bedroom, especially if you wear slippers. I have fairly sensitive feet and it does not bother me to walk barefoot on it. I highly recommend if you are looking for a great rug at a fantastic price!

I was concerned it would be green as others reviewed and rolled up it did have a green hue. However, it was very minor and fades because this is seagrass. I ordered in 3 sizes to accommodate an open floor plan and help it flow. Wish we could add pictures, all three rooms are different in their own way but beautiful with this rug because it goes with any decor. The weave is tight enough that dining chairs easily slide in and out without damaging the weave. The border is light and although it seemed to get dirty fast I found that wiping with a dry cloth knocked off most of the dirt. We do have a dog and had a party after adding the rugs...they still look great. I did order two 4x2.5 rugs to lay over a high traffic corner and also where my husband occasionally looses a drop of coffee. I got the same pattern and border and take them up when we have a party. I did this because originally we had Overstocks Cozy Shag Rug which hides everything, is very forgiving and yet we wore out one corner after really heavy use on one corner. In two rooms I added smaller rugs (5x8 over 9x12 and 3x5 over 5x8) to layer over these to add dimension and texture. Love this look in magazines and it really increased the cozy factor. Definitely recommend this rug!! I also liked the subtle chevron pattern but it wasn't available in all sizes I needed. I saw one in person and it subtle enough that it will bear the test of time. Our local carpet store custom makes these and it would have been $400 more had I gone through them. Using my O Rewards, taking advantage of an Great Offer Stock sale weekend I really saved. I also called Great Offer Stock since it was my birthday month and although they don't have a birthday promo program he offered 10% off which was nice but less than the 12% they already had going. Customer service also helped me find a bulk purchase coupon. Gotta love Overstock!! C'mon Great Offer Stock....let us add pictures! You could sell more rugs if others like the layering effect.

This is the third Safavieh Natural Fiber Marina Casual Border Seagrass Rug we have purchased for our home. Good quality, easy to clean, weave looks high end.

I am very happy with the Safavieh Natural Fiber Marina Casual Border Seagrass rug. The style and color was well represented in the photos and description. I was please with the quality of packaging for shipping. Yes, I would recommend this rug.

It's a great price for a rug at this quality that covers as much floor space as it does. I'm using it under a huge dinning room table and chair set on top of a cold tile floor. The rug really warms up the space with the natural fibers and truly does tie the room together. Only negative, as one would expect, the beige colored border easily shows dirt. I recently had about forty people over for a Super Bowl party and now need to clean the border. If you're placing it in a high traffic area, I may recommend the brown border version.

I got the Safavieh Natural Fiber Marina Casual Border Seagrass Rug for an office. It looks nice, is sturdy, and wears well. I wold recommend it if you are looking for a seagrass rug.

I love the Safavieh Natural Fiber Marina Casual Border Seagrass Rug. The quality is excellent. The texture is wonderful and it feels really nice under your feet - even my puppy keeps rolling around on it like she is playing outside.

Update: 6/21/21 I've returned to give an update on the two rugs that I purchased four months ago. Both are still holding up very well and I couldn't be happier with this choice and my cats have not been using them to sharpen their claws. Yay! In fact, I'm looking to add another to my current collection, as I have an area of heavy tracking that I would like to cover up. I'm still blown away by the quality of these Safavieh area rugs. If an occasional piece of grass pops out, I just take a screwdriver and wedge it back into the weave. These rugs are so heavy duty! Back to my original review 02/21: I'd previously ordered three rugs over these past months, none of which were the right color, weave, or quality that I'd expected. No problem though because I have a Club Great Offer Stock membership, so return shipping is free. Good deal! This Safavieh Seagrass Rug is fabulous! I ordered the Natural with beige trim which is a heavy-duty canvas material and it blends well with my existing wall-to-wall carpet. I was looking for a rug that would blend rather than shout, "Look at me!". The backing is of a felt material with a dotted silicone (or rubber?) surface to prevent traveling and slippage. The weight of the carpet is heavier and thicker than other throw rugs that I have purchased. I can see that I will have to use caution when moving my chairs about on it. We're used to scooting the chairs in and out while sitting at the table and it may damage the weave after a time. I use my upright vacuum on the "bare floor" setting so the roller brush won't cause any friction on the seagrass weave. I have two cats and I didn't even think about them using it as a scratching pad when ordering, but so far they aren't interested in it. Whew!, because I love this rug and didn't want to have to be forced into deciding whether to keep the carpet or the cats. (Kidding) I highly recommend this rug for indoor use. Not sure if it would handle wet weather as heavy as it is, so if you are considering it for your patio or deck, make sure it's sheltered from the weather. I could see it taking quite a while to dry out were it to get wet. Also worth noting was the condition upon arrival. Both were double wrapped and had moisture absorbing packets enclosed, so neither had any moldy odor nor funky sisal smell. Big plus because I've had to return a few carpets, due to those problems.

After reading a variety of reviews on the different styles offered,I Purchased the 9 x 12 Safavieh Natural Fiber Marina Casual Border Seagrass with the black border. I always feel like we are taking a chance when we order anything online, but this really fulfilled all of my expectations and then some. It has almost a basket weave pattern, As with any seagrass product, there are flaws that occur naturally in the weave, but I think definitely add character to the overall look. It has a “beefy” heavier feel than my previous one. Overall, Excellent purchase!

This is perhaps the studiest rug I have EVER purchased!! Will buy other versions for sure! SAFAVIEH Natural Fiber Marina Basketweave Seagrass Rug

Great rug as always from Safavieh and Great Offer Stock...fast shopping. Color is definitely darker than picture, on border and the seagrass...which is what I both wanted and expected from the other reviewers pictures. Had it a couple weeks, didnt really notice any smell. Rolled out flat except for the very end. I put a piece of wood on the end for a couple of nights and in about a week the end had relaxed and is perfectly flat, it was just from being rolled on a cardboard tube. Rug is wearing very well...not shedding or come apart at all...and mine is in a high traffic living room with 4 kids and toys. Because it's natural fiber there are a few small pieces of grass sticking out where the w wave was tied off. I just trim these close with a pair of scissors and it does not affect the rug. No unraveling at all. Back of rug has a felt like backing with small rubber dots all over, this works a little and rug stays put with furniture on it, but I am going to order a thin felt/fiberglass pad to put under because my wood floors are very slick. Rug has been fine to walk barefoot on...its da I'll fly flat from the start, but does flatten slightly and get a little lower comfortable af tree a couple weeks. My 4 kids have never complained about any of our natural fiber rugs, we started buying them s ik nch they never show dirt and are easy to spot clean/dont stain. They take alot of wear and still look pretty good after a few years. Bound edges are the way to go, weve had a few without the bound edge and they start to wear and come unravelled after a while.

I love my Natural Fiber Marina Basketweave Seagrass Rug. I am using it on in my sun room and it matches the sofas I have in the room.

I purchased the Safavieh Natural Fiber Marina Casual Border rug in the 8 by 10 with the black border. I wasn’t supposed to receive it till the end of January but it arrived early. This is the fifth rug I have purchased for the living area of my house in a year and a half! It’s also the least expensive and has the best look. I was hesitant to order a natural fiber rug due to the fact that they are not the most comfortable to walk on, but it has “the look” that I was not able to achieve with any of the others. I am thrilled with this purchase. Should have gotten it in the first place. Just thrilled with this rug!

I would definitely recommend the Safavieh Natural Fiber Marina Casual Rug to anyone. It works great with my round table. The bottom of the rug keeps it in place with no moving.

I bought this rug for my living room. It arrived true to color and in good condition. As always, it was shipped and arrived very quickly from Great Offer Stock. Seagrass is durable and is relatively smooth underfoot, so it is a good fit for a living room. The rug does not have a latex backing. It has a felt backing that makes the rugs feel light and cheapens the quality. You MUST have a rug pad for this rug. Overall for the price, I give it 4 stars. It looks great and brings the room together. I have small kids and didn't want to spend a fortune on a rug.

The Safavieh Natural Fiber Seagrass Rug was as expected, Just as pictured, Very nice Rug.

I love anything and everything Safavieh! This natural fiber marina rug with beige seagrass accents in no exception. Great for any entry or foyer.
