I needed a rug for under my dining table and had no idea what size I should get. I called and they were very helpful. The rug got delivered this morning and it’s perfect. It’s so beautiful and soft. The information in the website definiately matched the rug in person. Thankyou rugs express
I purchased a rug Mid December 2025. It is now Mid June 2026 and I have not received my rug. I asked for a refund a couple of months ago and after numerous phone calls and emails I still have not received a refund or a rug. Very disappointed with the service.
After waiting over 6 months for a refund from Rugs Express I finally have my refund and my dealings with Rugs Express is closed. I fully understand how difficult it must be for a smaller business to compete with the "Big Boys" but a return customer should not have to go through the stress of phone calls and texts to finally receive a refund for… Read more
goods paid for and not delivered. My previous business with this company some 8 years ago on 2 occasions was excellent, so it was disappointing that I had to make numerous calls/texts to receive my refund. Thank you Zac.

I purchased a 3m natural jute runner for my hallway. Fits so well. Surprisingly still soft to walk on and seems durable. I will also be buying the matching rug now that I know how good the quality is.
Great rug. Super quick delivery. A+++ communication. Pleasure to deal with
Love my rug. Quality is fantastic. Shipping was a bit slow but that’s ok with all the sales it’s got be expected! Rug is exactly what I ordered. I needed to ring them for help and even the help was outstanding. I’m so happy with the overall experience I will definately recommend to family and friends.
A Perfect Addition To My Home – I recently received my modern rug, and I couldn’t be happier! The design is contemporary, making it a perfect fit for my living room area. The quality is impressive and feels soft yet durable, and it lays beautifully without curling at the edges. It instantly elevates the room with its sophisticated look. Highly recommend Rugs Express for anyone looking for both style and quality rugs. They also gave me free quick delivery.
Top Class – We are a repeat customer over a couple of years, very happy with the quality of the rugs relative to price. Nice designs and durable materials. And the service from Zac has been excellent. Highly recommended.

Order Paid 31 December 2025 – No Delivery and Refund Still Outstanding (as of 28 February 2026) I placed my order with Rugs Express on 31 December 2025 for a Hvar Ivory Beige Loop Rug (240 x 330cm) for $717, paid via PayPal. Payment was taken… Read more
immediately.
Following the purchase, there was very limited communication. I followed up multiple times in January and February. I received one phone call advising that someone would check on the order, however there were no further updates and the online order status showed no progress.
By mid-February, having still received no dispatch confirmation or delivery timeframe, I formally requested cancellation and a full refund.
Rugs Express responded confirming the order would be cancelled and refunded. However, as of 28 February 2026, I have not received the funds back into my PayPal account. The screenshot provided to me indicates that PayPal has placed a temporary hold pending information from the seller —after I complained- it does not show that a completed refund has been processed.
As of today, it has been nearly three months since payment was taken. I have not received the rug and have not received a refund.
In my experience, the lack of communication, delay in resolution, and failure to process a timely refund has been extremely disappointing.
I would strongly recommend confirming stock availability and delivery timeframes before purchasing.
Follow-up · I ended up getting a refund through Paypal after they contacted the company. At no stage was there an mention of no stock, I found that out myself.

AVOID RUGS EXPRESS THEY WILL STEAL YOUR MONEY – As like a few other customers have said, I too was conned by Rugs Express and his promises. I fell into a trap just like the other customers. In January 2024, I purchased an outdoor rug online at Rugs Express. A few weeks had passed I hadn’t heard anything, but the money had already left my account. When I called and spoke to Rugs Express, he… Read more
told me that the rug I had ordered had sold out, I asked, “How can that be? The money has already left my account?” Rugs Express told me that they were expecting a new shipment and he would put my order at the top of the list. Two months passed and I rang him again, to ask him where the shipment was. Rugs Express again told me that he was looking at the order, which he said it was being delayed at customs, and advised me to be patient and he would get in contact, soon. Many more months passed, several phone calls were made, by me, and I was losing faith in everything Rugs Express was telling me. So, I requested a refund. Needless to say Rugs Express again promised me a refund and did not deliver. I did however receive an notification telling me my refund had been completed, this was a lie. I called and spoke to Rugs Express again, this time he told me that he felt it was the accounting department and to be patient and he would get in contact. AGAIN I had to call him several times and even asked him to provide me with the transfer number, and he told me yet AGAIN he would get back to me and yet AGAIN he has NOT!!! It's now has been over a year since Rugs Express has stolen my money!!!!
Brilliant! – Google requests I use 20 words at a minimum and be factual and objective. So here goes. It all started late one night when a completely irrelevant thought popped into my mind. It was probably around 11pm, my children were asleep, my husband was trying to sleep and my brain had long left my body...but what it did leave behind was the urge to spend… Read more
money on items our home doesn't actually need. Fast forward to hours of pointless online shopping, where I truly believed I would never find what I was looking for. I mean. I've never used Tinder, but I imagine it was a similar experience to scrolling aimlessly through hundreds of faces you'd never allow in your home... except in this case it was rugs (although I suppose in some Tinder cases it would also be rugs). That's inappropriate, but so is looking for rugs at 11pm. Hours passed by, and there it was... round in all its glory. My husbands balding head, that is. He told me to go to sleep and that pressure lead me to purchasing another glorious round thing...a rug, in fact. A glorious round rug.
So basically, I am happy with my purchase and my husband is happy with my rug...and I don't mean that metaphorically, or do I?
Outstanding - Brilliant product and superb service - faultless – Back in August 2021 I ordered and paid for a rug online. Within 20 minutes of placing my order, Zac phoned me to advise the rug wasn't in stock and due to COVID wasn't sure when it would be. He was absolutely fantastic in spending a lot of time with me to discuss other rugs that might suit. In fact, I believe the rug he suggested (and I chose)… Read more
is better than what I had originally ordered. Delivery was very good (especially during COVID/lockdown in Melbourne and parts of Sydney). There was a price variation choosing the other rug, plus Zac warranted an additional 10% discount (advertised on website), and the day the rug arrived, so did the refund to my bank account. I have had my rug for over 1 month now and it looks and feels fabulous and I absolutely love it. If you ever want/need to buy a rug, please do yourself a favour and buy it through Rugs Express and Zac. Don't bother with any other company, because I don't think they couldn't do it any better in price, quality and especially the service. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

About a month ago I ordered 6 rugs for a newly renovated air bnb. Sensational service and the rugs look fantastic! The quality is exceptional and I highly rate the service I was provided when I called to get some advice, 6 rugs is a difficult order to carry out especially with my standards but I’m happy I went with Rugs Express.
I have been purchasing my rugs from rugs express for many years. The last two rugs we purchased have arrived and we are so happy with our choise of levy 862 rust. The quality and the colour looks amazing. This time there was a slight delay in delivery but it was worth the wait. Thank you very much rugs express. Milka k.
My wife and I bought a rug and matching runner in January. We knew it was on back order and happy to wait! Thankgod we did because they just got delivered and they are stunning! The description match the website and they sit well on the floor. Happy wife, happy life! Thankyou Rugs Express

*Re-pasting my review as Google reviews are no longer visible for this business.* BE WARNED – DO NOT BUY FROM THIS STORE UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES - NO DELIVERY AND NO REFUND. I ordered a 3x4 rug for $620 on 1 September 2025 and not only was it never delivered, but the owner of this store (a sole trader based in Sydney) refused to refund me. I sent… Read more
numerous emails and had multiple phone calls with the owner. He initially promised delivery of the rug, but nothing eventuated. After a long wait, I requested a refund, which was refused on the basis that he had “no money” to pay me back. I subsequently commenced legal proceedings to recover the $620 owed. UPDATE: Following court proceedings, the outstanding amount has now been paid and the matter is resolved.
Ordered a rug in November and it is late march and still haven't received the goods. After contacting the owner over several weeks where I was promised to receive the rug on numerous occasions it again did not arrive, he then agreed to refund, this again didn't happen. My advice is DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY.
0 out of 10. No stars. Ordered a rug early Jan ‘26. No communication 3 weeks later so I contacted. Promises were made to check warehouse and get back to me. Never did. I asked for refund if not sent by end of week. Again promises made to refund but didn’t. As I paid with PayPal I disputed the transaction and asked for a refund. The proprietor… Read more
then suggested I was in the wrong for using the dispute option. I won the case of course and am now waiting for my refund. Read the reviews, good and bad. I didn’t read enough. Good luck if you choose to purchase online with them.

Absolutely love this multi-coloured rug! The colours are vibrant without being overwhelming, and it really brings the whole room together. The quality feels great underfoot and it adds a warm, stylish touch to the space. Couldn’t be happier with this purchase.
I bought a rug two weeks ago and they got delivered today. I live out bush so that’s pretty quick delivery for us! They were packaged very well and once they were laid out I knew I made the right decision. The design, colours and softness was as described on the website and looked like the photos on the website too. I would highly recommend purchasing off Rugs Express if you are still thinking about it! I would absolutely buy again!!
We have had many dealings with Rugs Express and are very happy with our choices with multiple rugs. Very quick delivery and always happy to help with designs and quality. Knowledgable and experienced when it came to styling and their knowledge of rugs. Will highly recommend Rugs Express for price and quality.

I am extremely satisfied with my recent rug purchase. The quality exceeds my expectations, and it has added a touch of elegance to my living room. The ordering process was straightforward, and delivery was prompt. I highly recommend this product to anyone seeking a stylish and comfortable rug. Thanks Rugs Express.
Bought a rug in November! Which was good quality! Delivery was quick for that time of year and the sizing was perfect. Customer service was good, I needed help with delivery times. The rug looked like what was in the website and I am just about to purchase my second rug and
We received our shaggy plush rug, colour was spot on. Perfect for our living room.. Delivery was ok, slight delay with the courier as I was not home the first time round. Highly recommended for that special rug.
I’m really pleased with this rug. The colour looks just like it did online, which was a relief, sometimes photos can be misleading, but this one matched my expectations and suits my room nicely. The quality feels better than I expected for the price. It’s soft to walk on and doesn’t feel flimsy. I’ve had it for a about a week now and it’s holding… Read more
up well. The size was spot on. I measured before ordering and it fits the space exactly how I hoped. Looks fantastic. Also, customer service was great. They answered my question quickly and delivery was smooth with no issues. Overall, I’m very happy with my purchase and would buy from them again.
About two weeks ago I bought two rugs from Rugs Express. I received them this morning and they are brilliant. I am so happy with my purchase, the colours are beautiful. The material is so soft and comfortable. I found customer service friendly as I needed help making a decision, the website was pretty easy to use! Rugs are better quality than what I was expecting. I would absolutely buy from them again when I need too. Wow so happy!
I bought a 240x320 rug online a couple of weeks ago. I am always concerned when I buy homewares and furniture online because sometimes you don’t know what you are getting, however I am so in love with the rug, the design and colours are perfect and matches the description on the website. It has made the house feel so inviting and warm. I know where to go when I need another one.
I recently bought 3 runners from Rugs Express and had them delivered recently. All 3 runners are of exceptional quality. They aren’t thin so they sat flat on the floor instantly without curling up. I had no idea what I initially wanted but the help of the person on the phone was very good and they had so much knowledge of their rugs that I felt comfortable buying off them. When we renovate the bedrooms I’ll be buying off them again.
I recently bought a rug for myself and mother. Great quality!! The rugs look like the pictures on the website and feel so nice on the floor. Delivery took a bit longer but I blame the courier for that! Overall I am happy with my purchase and if I need another rug I know where to go.
