Je viens de recevoir un tapis achetait le 12 avril 2026 soit disant fait main, lors de l'achat on signe une étiquette sous le tapis pour validité du produit, ce jour le tapis n'est pas celui acheté, pas la même couleur, l'étiquette a été découpée et agrafé sur le tapis envoyé et comble de l'arnaque il est fait machine, surtout ne vous faites pas avoir, ce sont de grands voleurs de réves et d'argent.

I went with a group about 2-3 years ago. It was very educational learning about harvesting the silk from the silk worms, hand knotting and the effort which goes into making the rugs. They offered us lots of tea and were very friendly. The rugs are expensive but when you consider the quality of the material and the amount of labor that goes into making it, it is not surprising. read more

My husband and I visited Turkmen Carpet while we were on a cruise. It really was one of the highlights of our visit to Türkiye. We enjoyed the tour and were fascinated as we watched some women weaving carpets on their looms. We were also shown how the silk threads are pulled from the silk worm pods. Again, fascinating! Lastly we were shown some carpets made from cotton and some made from silk. We did not feel pressured to make a purchase. We did purchase a runner which was just delivered yesterday! They tell you up front, and it's written on the purchase contract, that it can take up to 16 weeks for delivery. We received our runner 15 weeks to the day from purchase. Two young men delivered the carpet. They also had larger carpets with them and we happened to need a new carpet for our living area, so they brought in 3 for us to look at. Again, no pressure...but we did purchase one that looked like it was made for our space! If we are ever back in Türkiye again we will definitely stop by Turkmen Carpet Weaving! PS A really cool thing about these carpets is that they look different coming and going! read more

Bought a small carpet from Turkmen. It took a long time to arrive but it is beautiful.

be aware !! before buying from them please check cost and authenticity of the product. We bought a pendent from them and at the airport same pendent was 20% of the purchased value. So just be aware. read more

My guess is that a lot of cruise ship-related Tours stop here before heading back to Port. Gayle and I were were on an Ephesus excursion off our Norwegian Jade ship (from Izmir) and after Lunch, we were off to this Cooperative to see how Turkish Carpets were made. The folks who work here appeared to be Pros, starting with the public weaving room demonstration, sitting us in the cool big carpet room with drinks, wowing us with Rug 101 and the examples of each, and then selecting us out of the room for the hard sell at the end of the flying carpet twill. The 2 comments that kept running through my head during all this time were: - Time to Pluck a Pigeon! - Wow! These rugs are gorgeous! I quickly got used to the high pressure "Turkish Bazaar" sales pitch, although there wasn't much bargaining going on. The Salesmen could quote you the price in any currency and the package includes "free" shipping to your door and with all the customs stuff covered. There were also several rooms of carpets, and I was interested enough to be led into one of those for more "focused" one-on-one customer service. At that point, any idea was quickly matched by a rug in cotton, wool, or silk, and in a variety of sizes for our approval. I was particularly impressed with the blue carpets that appeared to change colour when they were turned around. I almost pulled the trigger on a nice blue patterned rug that I thought was nicely priced at $650. I didn't because: - I couldn't imagine where in our current house layout where I would put it, - I didn't trust how my 2 cats and 2 dogs would react, and - I was unsure of what I was buying and its value in the short period of my visit. I did appreciate that the sales guy stopped his pitch immediately after I told him that I was going to withdraw. I also thought about that damn rug for the rest of the trip and wondered how my friend Toni made out with her previous purchase under similar circumstances. read more

I was at the Turkmen with my daughter during an EF Tours trip to Greece in April 2014. It was Tues. April 21st, and I almost bought a beautiful silk carpet for my daughter but declined. I think they thought I would not become a customer as I am sure they have people tell them they will come back. When I said it-I meant it. I have booked another cruise and trip back to Greece/Turkey in Sept, and plan on purchasing carpets from the Turkmen for my lakefront Canadian AB home during my stay. I recommend them to anyone! They are efficient, create beautiful carpets and have an impressive set-up. I will be connecting with them but if they read this review and can provide additional contact info for us, it would be appreciated.

Very nice rugs and professional staff. They have a huge selection to choose from. You are sure to find something you'll love.

I was scammed into buying a large rug pro-ported to be handmade in Turkey. After receiving it in the states and having it appraised years later I have found it was made in China and is valued at 1/10th the price I paid at Turkmen. The warranty has passed and the cruise line is unwilling to step in and rectify. The rug salesman push unsuspecting tourist to drink heavy liquor while browsing their inventory and even have little girls as props weaving the rugs before your eyes. Then the high pressured sales people get you to make impulse decisions to buy rugs on a credit card and claim that they are being sold at a deep discount to their retail value. STAY AWAY! read more
