Homaxy Fluffy Shaggy Rug (Dark Green) 160 x 220 cm – large anti-slip, machine washable pile carpet
Product description
If you want that soft, shaggy feel underfoot without constantly babying the rug, Homaxy’s fluffy shaggy area rug is built for real home life. The dark green colour and large 160 x 220 cm size suit living rooms, bedrooms, and nursery-style spaces, while the anti-slip backing and machine-washable approach are aimed at day-to-day practicality.
On paper it’s pretty straightforward: plush high-density pile for comfort, a non-slip base to help keep it where you put it, and care that doesn’t rely on professional cleaning. That said, the “anti-slip” part is worth understanding—performance depends on keeping the underside dry, and any rug like this can still shift on very smooth surfaces if the conditions aren’t right.
The essentials
This is a large, fluffy shaggy rug with a thick pile designed to feel warm and cosy when you walk on it barefoot. It’s positioned as a comfort rug for spaces like a living room or kids’ bedroom, and it’s also pitched as suitable for nurseries.
A key claim in the description is that it’s “fibre-shed-free”. Realistically, you may still notice an initial “settling” period with shag pile rugs, especially after delivery. The packaging can be compressed, so it may arrive with creases.
For the first few days, the care instructions matter: lay it flat for 2–3 days to restore the full fluffiness. If you’re the sort of person who wants everything perfect straight out of the box, you might find that bit mildly annoying—but it’s common with compressed rugs.
What you’ll notice day to day
The feel is the headline here: plush, high-density pile for comfort underfoot. It’s also framed as family-friendly, including for homes with children and pets, which is usually shorthand for “it should cope with normal mess” rather than “it’s indestructible”.
A practical micro-scenario: imagine putting it in a play area where kids do tummy time and the floor needs to be softer. A rug like this makes that corner feel warmer and more forgiving than bare vinyl or tile.
Where it makes sense is if you want comfort that looks good and also plan to maintain it without turning every spill into a bigger project.
Anti-slip backing: helpful, but don’t ignore the conditions
The rug uses a non-slip base with high-density anti-slip dots and a thickened felt bottom, designed to enhance friction and reduce sliding on surfaces like vinyl, hardwood, and tile.
The important limitation is explicit: for best non-slip performance, keep the underside dry. Moisture can reduce grip. So if the room gets humid, if cleaning leaves the backing damp, or if there’s any tendency for water/condensation to reach the underside, you may need to be a bit more careful.
Also, the description doesn’t suggest it’s meant for wet areas or heavy, constant foot traffic like a commercial setting—so expect it to perform best in typical domestic use.
Cleaning and care (machine washable, with sensible rules)
The rug is described as machine washable, which is the main reason many people look at this style of product in the first place. The guidance given is:
- Vacuum it if needed.
- For machine washing, use cold water (under 30℃) with mild/gentle detergent.
- Line dry (and wash separately for best results).
- Air drying is recommended.
One practical note: for best results, wash separately. That’s not unusual for thick pile rugs, but it can affect how convenient laundry day is if you’re used to throwing everything together.
Size and room fit
At 160 x 220 cm, this is a large rug option intended to anchor a seating area or provide a soft surface for a larger bedroom section. The dark green colour is likely to hide everyday marks better than lighter shades, but it will still show dust and fluff in a typical shag pile way.
Because the packaging can compress the rug, you should expect it to look a bit less fluffy for a short period after arrival. Laying it flat for 2–3 days is part of making it look like what you saw in the listing.

Should you buy it?
Buy it if you want a large, fluffy shaggy rug for living room, bedroom, or nursery use, and you value soft underfoot comfort plus a machine-washable routine. It’s also a reasonable pick if you’re dealing with kids or pets and would rather handle cleaning at home than avoid using the rug for fear of mess.
Don’t buy it if you need guaranteed instant fluffiness straight after delivery, or if you can’t keep the underside dry (the non-slip performance is said to drop with moisture). It may not be a great match if you’re expecting a “set and forget” rug for very slick conditions without any extra checks.
If you’re deciding between a basic washable rug and something plush, this sits more in the comfort-focused lane—so you’re trading a little practicality of maintenance for that thicker feel.
Mini FAQ
How long does it take to fluff up after delivery?
The instructions say to lay it flat for 2–3 days to restore full fluffiness if it arrives compressed with creases.
Is it suitable for homes with children and pets?
The description positions it as family-friendly for kids and pets, mainly because the material is soft and the care routine is designed to be manageable.
Will the non-slip backing work on hard floors?
It’s designed to help reduce sliding on surfaces like vinyl, hardwood, and tile, but keeping the underside dry is important for the best grip.
Can I wash it in the machine?
Yes—machine wash on cold (under 30℃) with mild/gentle detergent, then line dry/air dry. Washing separately is recommended.
What should I check before buying?
Check the size (160 x 220 cm) for your space, and consider whether you can follow the underside-dry condition for non-slip performance and the 2–3 day resting period after unboxing.
