I’ll admit it—I didn’t expect a washable rug to feel this good. When I unrolled Ruggable’s new All-in-One area rugs, I was expecting practicality, not plushness. Instead, I found a texture so soft I wanted to ditch my socks and keep walking barefoot. The fibers are dense, the weave is refined, and both styles I tested looked as good as they felt underfoot.

Ruggable built its name on machine-washable rugs that homeowners can actually live with—rugs designed to withstand spills, pets, and daily traffic. The company’s new All-in-One collection takes that concept to the next level, combining a built-in nonslip backing with elevated comfort and style. There’s no separate rug pad, no corner curling, and no struggle to align layers—it’s all one seamless piece.

To see how it holds up in real life, I tested two Ruggables from the line: the Ryder Dove Grey Plush Rug in a 6 ft. by 9 ft. area size and the Soledad Gold & Teal Runner in 2.5 ft. by 7 ft. Both are part of their latest lineup of high-pile, ultra-soft rugs built for real life—but designed to look anything but utilitarian.

How easy is Ruggable’s new All-in-One rug to set up and keep in place?

Setup is effortless—no pads to align, no corners to fight. I unrolled each rug and it immediately flattened out, thanks to the new built-in nonslip backing. Unlike earlier Ruggables that came in two layers, this All-in-One design stays perfectly in place even on smooth floors. I liked that the optional cushion adds a bit of loft without making it feel bulky, and once the rugs were positioned, they didn’t shift an inch—even in high-traffic areas. The edges stayed smooth and the grip held firm. 

Do the new Plush and Tufted All-in-One rugs actually feel luxurious underfoot?

Yes, and that was the biggest surprise. The plush pile is dense and velvety, far softer than I expected from a washable rug. I found myself walking barefoot just to enjoy the texture. The tufted runner has a slightly firmer, more structured feel, which makes sense for hallways where traction matters, but it’s still soft enough to feel comfortable underfoot. The subtle high-low weave in the plush design adds dimension, while the tufted pattern gives a crisp, hand-loomed look that elevates any space.

Can these upgraded rugs really handle washing without losing their look or shape?

They can—and that’s what impressed me most. I scrunched the tufted runner easily into my front-load washer; the new flexible backing makes that possible. I took the larger plush rug to the laundromat to take advantage of a bigger washer. Both rugs kept their shape with zero warping or edge curl. The colors stayed vibrant, the fibers felt just as soft, and the nonslip underside still gripped the floor just as well as before. It’s rare for a high-pile rug to survive a wash this well, but these came out looking—and feeling—like new.

Who are these rugs best for?

Ruggable’s All-in-One rugs are ideal for homeowners who want the comfort and sophistication of a designer rug without the worry that comes with everyday life. They’re perfect for families, pet owners, and anyone who likes to live in their space—not tiptoe around it. The Ryder Plush feels indulgent enough for a living room or bedroom, while the Soledad runner brings color and warmth to busy entryways and hallways. At $569 for the 6-by-9-foot area rug and $199 for the runner, they’re priced closer to quality home décor than bargain rugs, but they earn it in comfort, craftsmanship, and easy care. If you’re after a quick, cheap accent, you can find one anywhere—but if you want a washable rug that truly looks and feels luxurious, this is the one to invest in.
