Found a beautiful rug there with the help of the salesperson. He really listened and had great recommendations. This is a durable all wool rug, much better quality and a better price than the main home goods stores. read more

Rug Depot Outlet - Rugs Near Me - Emeryville, California

Stopped by the Rug Depot just to see and touch different rug materials to help narrow down the search. Eduardo was so patient and showed me around the different sections, provided lots of information without overwhelming me, and left me to explore on my own with no pressure to buy. Awesome store with a good selection! read more

Hand-woven, wool rugs from Iran and the like are extortionately priced at this so-called Outlet. That being said, if you're keen on looking at rugs IRL, then I would recommend checking this place out. The shop is massive and the selection is fairly broad with area rugs, runners, prayer rugs and circular pieces. One can choose from the aforementioned fancy-pants rugs, machine-woven rugs, or synthetic rugs either sporting traditional designs or modern more patterns. Even if one isn't going to purchase from Rug Depot, it may be a good place to get one's feet wet, as it were, if wanting to learn about what's out there in the world of rugs. *Massive garden pottery 'outlet' directly across Hubbard that may be worth a look-see as well. read more

This is an amazing place to buy rugs on any budget! Literally saw 9x12 area rugs for only $200. And of course there are nicer rugs on the higher end. Also, they're having a 50% off sale on most items. I really like that they have most of their rugs on those displays that hold them up so you can see the whole rug, unlike a lot of rug stores where they are stacked and you can only see the corner of the rug. It makes it easier to flip through their inventory. Eduardo is great. Not pushy at all, not trying to sell you on any magic rug lol, just a nice guy being helpful I bought a beautiful Tibetan hand woven runner for only $400, and I'm thrilled with it. I've already been back since, and I'll continue to revisit as I furnish my home. read more

Rug Depot Outlet - Hand wooden Tibetan runner for only $400! Crazy deal - Rugs Near Me - Emeryville, California

I always drive by this place on my way to Ikea. I'm always intrigued by the size of the warehouse and the big banner saying they're having a sale. When walking in, the place is massive. They have a huge collection and plenty of space to view each rug. It was really empty when I came on a Saturday afternoon, with 4 workers standing around and asking if I needed help. When checking the price tag, I was quickly turned off. These rugs are super pricey. Even if they advertise 50% off, they must increase the price by 100% first because I can find cheaper rugs at IKEA, the flea market, Home Depot or anywhere else. Honestly, the quality of rugs are all the same and if I buy a cheaper one and it rips, I can easily buy another one. I wish this was cheaper because the assortment is nice but even in the Bay Area, the rugs are expensive. read more

Really great spot! We needed a rug for our new house and found the rug depot searching online. Those working there offered help, gave us the information we needed and then let us browse. We found the perfect rug and were on our way! read more

These folks have a great selection of rugs. Eduardo is extremely knowledgeable, patient and helpful. No pressure, just unobtrusive assistance and advice when you need it. They had plenty of options for folks like me on a modest budget, and plenty more for those on an even tighter budget or for whom price is not a concern. The last time I moved, around 10 years or so, I got my rugs here and was happy with my purchase. So when I moved again recently I returned and am glad I did. I will never get my rugs anywhere else. read more

What a lovely shopping experience! I was gonna head over to ikea for a new rug and was cringing at having to go through a labyrinth to shop... I decided to take a look at the rug depot on the way and I don't regret it! Amazing selection of very high quality rugs that are very unique and reasonably priced, beautiful and airy warehouse and great costumer service! I got the rug carried out to my car! It might be a bit pricier that ikea but I got a better rug! Totally recommend this place. read more

I recently bought a gorgeous area rug here. I spent more than I planned to but really liked it and it was the only one of its kind in the store. I got it home and within 24 hours, the thing is pilling and shedding little rug balls. I am really disappointed. And now I have to vacuum it daily to avoid it looking like a small furry animal died on it. I should've known better when I walked in and the people working there acted rude and shady! read more

I've never done a negative review before but this transaction really got the best of me. I purchased a rug for $842.00 on 7/6/15. My credit card was charged on 7/7/15. I returned the rug on 7/8/15. I called Rug Depot on 7/9/2015 to ask where my credit was since it hadn't appeared on my Credit Card statement. They told me to wait until Tuesday 7/14/2015 to see if it appeared because their bank takes a long time. They wouldn't tell me the name of their bank. That made me a bit suspicious. I called again today (Tuesday) to ask where my credit is. The worker called the accountant who said that it was refunded on 7/8/2015. They said it's up to me to prove that I didn't receive the credit. Now I have to go back to the store with my credit card statement to prove that I didn't receive a credit. Seems backwards to me. Maybe they were hoping I would not notice and they could keep my money. I've never had a credit take this long from any other merchant. read more

This place is really like a rug museum.... Lots and lots of rugs. Prices ranges from $ - $$$$! We were in need of rugs to protect my existing carpet since the frog(dog) loves to leap around the living room playing with his toy(ssss.) And we were looking for CHEAP CHEAP replaceable CHEAP rugs. At first glance, Rug Depot Outlet doesn't seem to have many cheap rugs around for us to choose (we were thinking about in the $50 range big area rug.) But then as we start really exploring the huge @ss store, we saw cheap rugs pretty much everywhere. There were plenty to choose from in the ~$50 range. And we picked up one at $35 (medium size rug), and 2 @ $95 (big big huge area rug). They weren't cheap @ss ugly ikea rugs neither. The rugs make the living room look much better now and the frog can play with his toy at ease without us constantly take his toy away to avoid carpet damage. Oh also! The person who was helping us that day was extremely friendly. Thank you! read more

Horrible quality! I purchased a "leather" sofa/loveseat in December as a Christmas gift for my family and just a month later, it is already starting to discolor and flatten out in certain spots. I also purchased a rug that I was told was the best deal in their store, discounted for 50% off because they over-ordered and had too many. Well, that rug sheds and requires vacuuming every single day! Maybe that's the reason why they are slashing the price, which still was over $250. Do not buy from these people. They have very low budget items and you will be sorry. read more

We discovered this business last month when they were having a huge sale over the Martin Luther King holiday weekend. We bought a beautiful rug (supposedly originally priced at $250) for just $59. Because it was such a low price, they emphatically informed us that there would be no refund or exchange for any reason. We had the rug less than one month when it started unravelling in at least two separate places. It was falling apart. We took the rug to the store yesterday, having absolutely no expectations other than the satisfaction of voicing our opinions about the quality of the merchandise. To our surprise, they agreed to give us another rug in exchange for the damaged one. I have upgraded my star rating status from one to three stars because of our experience yesterday. However, I am withholding my final opinion while waiting to see if this new rug lasts more than three weeks! Janie (the store employee who helped us on both occasions) was extremely nice, responsive and professional. We give her five stars for excellent customer service!! read more

I bought my first rug from here in 2002. It was a huge 11x8 and a steal at only $250. Very pretty, hand knotted wool - looked high quality. Lots of complements over the years. Over ten years, my dogs nails did a number of this rug, and it started to fall apart. To me, this was completely expected. Honestly I didn't expect a $250 rug to last 10 years of dog abuse! Did I mention she's a doberman? Nails on a doberman = giant talons. Having had such a good experience the first time around, I went back. I found many in my price range, and purchased a 5x7. This time I aimed for machine made, hoping it'll standup a little better than hand knotted wool to my dog's talons. The selection of this place cannot be beat in the bay area. The store is sort of separated into contemporary, transitional, and traditional areas, and by size. It would take at least 1.5-2 hrs to go through all the options. I hate buying something sight unseen online - for a rug, you want to touch it, look at its backing, etc. They do have a short return policy; in my opinion, at least they have one! I do realize however that if this place is a drive for you, that might be difficult. They should consider extending the policy to at least a week to accommodate those that live further away (ie. to be able to bring it back the NEXT weekend as opposed to the next day). To me, it's worth the drive. Never seen so many options in my life. They largely left us to ourselves - no high pressure sale. Very enjoyable experience. read more

I'm not a nesting pro, but I found hundreds of designs in the size I needed, at least a few of which I really liked and could afford on my $300 budget. all the employees I spoke with were pretty cool, but yeah Eduardo is charming. good mix of modern and old worldly. good price mix too, of course at some risk to quality on the low end. (Follow up: the natural wool rug I got shed a little as he told me it would, but otherwise I'm pleased with the quality and definitely the price) read more

This is the second time that I've purchased an area rug here. They have all price ranges and designs of area rugs you could want ! The sales staff know their product and guided me through different choices of material, the pros and cons. I went during one of their half off sales so I was really pleased with the prices. They even gave me a discount on the non-sale pad when I asked if I could get a lower price. The staff are really nice and aren't high pressure at all. Then they loaded it all up in my vehicle and it looks beautuful in our living room. read more

Another Rug Depot unsatisied customer. I purchased a 100% wool rug that ($799 on sale for $319). What I didn't know is that the rug was so deply discounted because it had MOTHS. I got it home and saw them jumping out with a few weeks. I used some preventative products to kill them; like any moths, they lay eggs and I had more of them in about 3 months. After I had the carpet for a year, looked like it had been through bad chemo; with all the carpet hairs and fibers falling out- literally bald spots in the carpet (which unfortunately happened when I was entertaining around Christmas time). I brought the rug and my original reciept back to the store. It was awful; they were unapologitic; and making a bad situation worse, acted like it was my fault, and suggested that I already had moths in my home! Their answer was they were only willing to let me buy another rug at 50% off; REALLY?, when they were already running that sale? Why would I spend any more money there to get a crappy carpet with moths, when I already invested in a rug for a room that is never used; and it should have lasted a lifetime. I am out a carpet, $319, a bunch of time, + the additional I have to spend to get another carpet. Don't shop here; I've had much better luck at Home Goods and seen some great stuff at CostPlus World Market- two other outlets that would be willing to stand by the products they sell. I hate to recommend the chains; but these independents do it to themselves sometimes! read more

If you've never bought a rug before, read about how to buy rugs. When you go to this place, you'll see $200 rugs next to $2,000 rugs, what's the difference, mainly the numbers on the price tags. This place has been in Emeryville for at least a decade, and I have seen every kind of sign on it: going out of business, grand opening, final liquidation, etc. You probably can get a good deal here if you hit the right day when they move they swap a $200 tag to a formerly $2,000 carpet. read more

Pretty nice items, however, I bought a very large persian silk rug for $1500 and exactly one year later, the edging started to fray and detach. I called and told them I had the receipts and could they at least mend it for me and was told that there is no warranty and they couldn't help me except to refer me to a rug mending vendor. I told them that I had spent $4000 that day and was a good loyal customer. No matter. They would not help out. The rug was billed as top quality. This seemed disappointing to me. read more

This is NOT a retail outlet store. The word Outlet connotes deep cut prices. After running to many stores looking for an area rug that I could afford, I was thrilled to find an " outlet" store. They have ample stock but what they call "outlet" is sorely overstated. I was disappointed and felt duped especially because I have so little time to shop. ( read more

lots of rugs in lots of different sizes. the quality is questionable... not exactly fine persian rugs or exclusive weaving... that's probably why the prices are fairly low in comparison to many other places. i'd say the style is more for the older crowd. we didn't find anything we liked. it's probably a decent place to furnish a business where you don't want alot of foot traffic ruining a really expensive rug. read more

The quality of the rugs here doesnt seem to be that great, but the prices dont reflect that. Even the "sale" items dont seem to be a superb deal, but typical pricing for rugs (for an 8X10 the average looked to be around $500-600). Lots more Persian style rugs than contemporary....and if you like Persian rugs there is quite a selection. read more

My boyfriend and I had an amazing experience at Rug Depot. A gentlemen named Eduardo helped us out and was fabulous! Some of the best customer service I've every experienced. The only knock is the selection/style isn't exactly our style. With that in mind, Eduardo helped to highlight some pieces that we may like. We left with 3 rugs! read more

Really nice staff. I messed up with the return policy and they gave me a break - very helpful and friendly folks.

We loved Rug Depot so much that we've gone two times. Ask for Eduardo, he's the best. We bought rugs for our dining room, living room, two bedrooms and also two hallway runners. We found the prices to be reasonable (I think we spent around $3-4k all-in-all) and we did shop around first. Great selection, top quality. Would totally recommend this place to our friends. read more

Ultimately, you get what you pay for. There are some cheaper ones that I can understand why they fell apart, and then they have some really good quality ones for a real bargain. They do negotiate too. I got a wonderful 100% wool rug from India for almost half off. Definite value and quality. read more

This is the best place!! They have a huge selection which can kind of be overwhelming but don't worry, they are there to help and if you don't need help, they will not push you to buy anything! I had a super easy shopping experience. Would buy from them again. read more

Yay! We found a rug! this place is really big and they have ANY size you are looking for! My boyfriend and I were looking for a large rug for our living room. We have all hardwood flooring so we need rugs! They have lots of sales, 30%, 50% and 70% off. We found a great 5x8 rug for the living room in shades of maroon, olive, sage, tan and beige. As soon as we put it down we knew it was the perfect one! Our cuddly kitties plopped down and got comfortable real quick! We will be back. read more

Very friendly and helpful manager. Best rug buying experience ever. I didn't feel like I was being "sold". Prices were fair and there was a wide variety of options at inexpensive price points. read more

We just bought a rug for our living room. We got the perfect color and pattern for a 50% discount (They had a great sale going on). They have a huge collection! Service is good too -- they don't interfere until you ask them questions and they certainly never push you. So I like that kind of no pressure shopping/browsing. I would certainly recommend them. read more

My first visit to this store was about 10 years ago. i bought a rug that I still have and the quality is great. I recently went online and purchased a kitchen area rug for 100 plus dollars. I didn't know that rug depot carried these type of rugs. Well when I stopped in to just browse not only did they have the same rug but it was on sale for 15 bucks! it looks great, I purchased it and I will return the online rug when it arrives. Oh, and I want to mention I spent 15 bucks and got the same customer service when I spent a thousand dollars 10 years ago! Great customer service, no pressure, if you want help they are there and if you want to just browse you can browse comfortably. read more

Watch out these guys are a shady sneaky lot. Besides horrible customer service (the manager is insulting, ungracious and obtuse), their tactics are something akin to Slaughter ball when it comes to negotiating and more importantly they simply lie about Everything. Most of their rugs are from China, India and Pakistan but a number of these were marketed as Persian or Turkish and as hand made when they were obviously machine made. Don't get the wool pulled over you eyes.... I rank 0 stars for this dump. read more

I bought several heirloom rugs from this store. I've been extremely happy with the selection. However I try to keep my price under $1000 for a 5x8. read more

March 25, 2012 Bought a 5 x 7 Belgium produced area rug for about $600.00 and couldn't be happier. I dealt with Bernardo Hernandez who really knew the inventory well. This is my 3rd go around with this store over the past 5 years and they continue to have one of the best selections in the East Bay. read more

I have been buying rugs from Eduardo for 14 years and I have always gotten super buys on excellent rugs. Eduardo has spent literally hours helping me with my home and vacation home design planning and his recommendations have been right on the money. They are true to their word on returns and are a wonderful business. Eduardo also seriously knows his rugs! read more

The 5-star review is mostly based on the customer service my wife and I received working with Eduardo on Sunday. He let us browse around for a bit and then caught up with us to see what style we were interested in. By showing him some examples of patterns and telling him colors that we would be leaning towards he immediately knew where to go to show us rug options that met our criteria and was within our price range. He wasn't a pushy sales person and was very knowledgeable on the rugs and answered all of our questions. We ended up going with an option that he presented to us first and it is now in our home and looks beautiful! Eduardo's easy going personality and expertise in rugs was refreshing and made us very comfortable pulling the trigger on the purchase... and we are glad we did :-) read more

I just bought a rug from the Rug Depot last week and I'm very pleased. I initially went into the store a couple weeks ago looking at rugs and met with Eduardo. He was very helpful and not too pushy. I ended up not buying one that day because their return policy is only 2 days and I had to go out of town the next day. It seems like their stuff is always "on sale" though sometimes more than others. I was told the price would probably go up if I didn't buy that day. A few weeks later, sure enough the price of the rug I liked had gone up by about $300 but they said the machine knotted Persians that I was interested in are always 30% off (though not when they're 'on sale' but whatever). After a bit of negotiating, I got the price down to about what it was the first visit. It's kinda funky that their prices are changing all the time but you'll get a great deal no matter what. Got my rug home and it looks beautiful. Very happy with my purchase. If you need a rug, you should check out Rug Depot. They have any rug you could ever dream up in every size you could ever need. read more

We bought rugs at the Rug Depot,we are so happy with what we bought and at GREAT prices. It is a family owned store. We went with our 3 kids and it was not a problem, as the sales people was so friendly and nice and able to answer every question we asked. They had such a great selection. It was a one stop shop for us as we were able to get rugs for 3 different rooms read more

We just purchased a beautiful handmade Pakistani wool rug. Sa'id was very helpful giving us an in-depth background on how the rug was made and how to best take care of it. He was very knowledgable and offered assistance without being pushy. Which we really appreciated. We will most definitely go back there to buy more rugs in the future. read more
