Hello Everyone,

 

I have purchased 2 Ikea medium shag rugs. But, they do not last long and the pile flattens quickly,

despite professional cleaning every 6 months. Below is one of my rugs which Ikea used to sell in

Thailand:

I'm looking for other Bangkok shops that sell machine-made, single-color, medium-pile shag rugs.

(NOT oriental pattern rugs). In the USA, these rugs are common and affordable.

 

I must avoid high-cost shops in high-rent areas and need something basic.

 

Any suggestions?

Couple thoughts ... 

... you get what you pay for ($200) 🙄

... buy a better rug, along with a wet vac, it will offset the pro cleaning.  Spend on the rug, not cleaning.

 

Rugs don't do well here in TH, (heat & humidity) along with crap vacuum cleaners.   I don't and won't own them, though see the attraction vs walking on hard tile floors.

 

Me ... I have 2 sets of 'foam' sandals, one for outside, and one for inside, so walking on tile is a comfortable joy.  Solves both problems.

 

Use to have full carpets, and or those fancy (expensive as hell) oriental rugs back in the ol' USA.  Not very applicable here, or very expensive.  Same as USA, but harder to maintain here.

 

Good Luck, but you'll need to add another '0' to your pricing for quality, at least, if not a whole other digit.
