Ruggable Kamran Washable Rug vs Loloi Hand-Woven Wool Area Rug

Buy the Ruggable if the rug lives in a busy room with kids, pets or food traffic, or if you want a specific navy medallion look you can clean at home. Buy the Loloi if you want a real wool rug with a plush hand underfoot and don't mind spot cleaning. The Ruggable wins on practicality and stain resistance; the Loloi wins on material, texture and the feel of a hand-woven wool piece. Owners of Ruggable covers report they wash well but lie flat and thin; Loloi wool owners praise the softness but note shedding and the need for a pad.

• Choose the Ruggable if you need a rug you can machine wash after spills, pets or muddy shoes, and you want a flat, low-profile weave in a navy Persian-style pattern.
• Choose the Loloi if you want a genuine hand-woven wool rug with a half-inch pile and a softer, warmer feel underfoot, and you can live with spot cleaning and a rug pad.
