If you know Bowie, you know he has a knack for finding the coziest spot in the house. Lately, that’s been our favorite washable rug for pets, the Willow Rug from Revival Rugs (color: Bone Beige). It’s soft, simple, and somehow looks good while holding up to muddy paws, dog hair, and the occasional accident.
“A Washable Rug That Actually Works?” Skeptical, But Sold!
I was pretty skeptical about the whole “washable rug” thing. We live in an apartment with shared laundry, so tossing a rug into the wash didn’t seem realistic (and there’s no way this would fit in a standard machine anyway). But honestly, it hasn’t mattered – this rug has handled everything we’ve thrown at it (and on it) without needing a deep clean yet.
Bowie knocked over a full glass of red wine the first night we had the rug. Not ideal. But to my surprise, most of it beaded up and wiped off with some all-purpose spray. No stain, no panic. If you’ve ever been nervous about a light-colored rug and pets, this one’s surprisingly low-maintenance.
Between muddy paws, shedding, and a couple of puppy messes, the rug’s held up really well. It doesn’t trap smells, and the subtle pattern does a good job of hiding dirt between cleanings. Bowie claimed it as his go-to nap spot the second we rolled it out, and I’m not about to argue with him.
Also worth mentioning – it’s really soft. Bowie stretches out on it daily, and guests always comment on how nice it feels underfoot.
If you want a soft, stylish pet-friendly rug that looks nice and doesn’t require babying, this rug is worth checking out. We liked it so much, we ended up getting a second vintage Revival rug for another room, plus another washable one (the Stripe Washable in Bone Beige – can you tell I have a thing for neutrals?). Not sponsored – just genuinely impressed.
I’ve got a 15% off discount code if you’re thinking of trying a Revival rug. Whether you want something washable or just a great-looking piece that holds up to real life (pets, spills, the usual), I genuinely recommend them.
glad i found this thanks
I just bought this, thanks!
Loved reading this! Bowie sounds like such a character—and now I’m totally sold on the Willow Rug. LOL it’s so hard to find something that’s both stylish and pet-friendly, but this sounds like a dream. Thanks for the honest review (and the red wine story made me laugh—glad it held up!)
