Bathroom Rug Reviews and Buying Guide:We all love decorating our house until it comes time to buy things like bath rugs and towel racks. I own a small 3 bedroom, 2 bath home, and it even took me a little time to decide what bathroom rugs would go best in my home. There are literally 1,000s of options when it comes time to pick the right bath rug so be prepared to do a little shopping. They make every size rug imaginable (small, large, full or half bath, etc.), from all materials ( wood, cotton, vinyl, etc.), in all styles (luxury, kids, sports, etc.) so it can be quite a task to buy rugs for the entire house. Remember that the main purpose of a bathroom rug is comfort and functionality so buy according to those two things. If you have a bathroom that holds moisture and gets very humid then consider a teak bath mat, or if you have children then you would want to buy something affordable and appropriate for kids like a fish or sea shell bath rug. I have been in a small average house before, where the owner had luxury bath rugs and fixtures, but it looked out of place and almost fake because it didn't fit with the rest of the house. Some of the big names that make bath rugs are Mohawk, Fieldcrest, Nautica, and L.L. Bean. If you are on a budget the best way to go is to buy a "bath rug set" which usually has 3 different rugs that sell for about $30. Washing bathroom rugs can be a pain so make sure to buy rugs that are "machine washable" which is going to make your life a whole lot easier. We reviewed many different bath rugs and listed our results below so hopefully our research can save you a little time and money.
Buy Bathroom Rugs - Reversible, Cotton, Etc.:Do you want to buy a reversible bath rug? Maybe you want to purchase a kids bath rug, or a floral bath rug? Whatever type of bathroom rug you are looking for, the internet is a great place to do some research (see some rug photos) and maybe find that special bath shag rug. My house is decorated with standard rugs that I bought at Target because I can't afford to spend $70 on a bath mat that is only used to dry my feet. Some simple hints for buying the right bath rugs would be: when buying for kids bathrooms don't spend a lot of money because kids ruin their belongings, buy an oval or round bath rug only if your bathroom fits that design - in other words buy bath rugs according to the shape of the bathroom, and try to buy colored bath rugs that match your other decorations. You can find some nice "sports bath rugs" like the Northwest NCAA Florida Gators Rug that is made of tough acrylic material with a non-slip foam rubber backing - perfect for any sports fan and sells for $29.99. Another popular bath rug is "Beacon Point Bath Rug" that is 27" around and brings a nautical touch to any room, this rug had good reviews and is perfect for that beach house vibe (great for rooms that have moisture). If you are in the market for a shag bath rug then check out the "Romeo Dark Rose Pink Contour Shag Bath Rug" that is on sale at amazon.com for just $14.97. This shag rug comes in pink or blue and measures 21 x 37 inches which is a great size for any modern bathroom. The 100% Dupont nylon material provides comfort and long wear, but it's also machine washable for total convenience and got a 3 star rating on Amazon. If you want a bath rug that's a little different then check out "Teak Bath Mat" at alsto.com that sells for $99.99. This bath mat is vented for comfortable, nonslip footing and coated in oils for a longer life. Great for humid environments which is why this mat is a top seller in salons and spas, the 100% teak wood design helps resist mold, mildew and bacteria to provide a cleaner bathroom area.Best Bathroom Rug Sets:Once you move into a new house you are going to need a new bathroom rug set. Are you wondering how much a bath rug set is going to cost? Most 3 piece bathroom rug sets consist of, the toilet cover rug, bath rug, and the toilet rug. On average the bath rug sets we found were about $30, but there were sets that went from $15 all the way up to $100 (for those special materials and designs). Some of the top brands we found were Velvet, Beaumont, Mohawk, and Lintex. The main thing about buying a bathroom rug set is to find a design that fits your bathroom and is made of the material you want like cotton, velvet, shag, etc. There were hundreds of quality products online so we decided to list a few of the top sellers. 1. Velvet Spa Bathroom Rug Set - makes any bathroom look new and clean, 4 piece set includes toilet cover, contour rug, 21-inch x 34-inch rug and one 24-inch x 40-inch rug, comes in perfect plum, smoky blue, and pearl essence color, washable in cold water and tumble dry - $59.99. 2.

Buy A Luxury Or Designer Bath Rug:If you live in a nice place (or can afford it) you are probably after the more expensive bathroom items. If you rent an apartment or condo then chances are you don't have extra money to be spending on designer bath rugs, but if you live the good life you might consider spending the extra money to make your bathrooms elegant. There were quite a few websites online that sell luxury bathroom rugs and I'd recommend you check out linenplace.com/products/Bath/bath-rugs.html. Some of the big name companies that sell expensive bath rugs are Peacock Alley, Fieldcrest, and Waterford. You can buy a nice European style spa/bath rug by Peacock Alley for $72.00 that measures 24 x 40 inches (available in almond, brick, wheat, and coffee color). These rugs are hand designed for total comfort and are machine washable in warm water for easy care. Another popular luxury bath rug is the "Waterford Rosslare Bath Rug" - measures 21x34 and sells for $63.00. Waterford products are known for their deep, absorbent pile and the classic signature style that makes any restroom a comfortable place.
