Washable Rugs

The Washable Rugs collection at Lulu and Georgia gathers area rugs specifically constructed for machine washing—providing the style of a designed rug with the practicality of easy, at-home cleaning.

What washable rugs does Lulu and Georgia carry?

Lulu and Georgia's Washable Rugs collection includes the Lafayette Washable Rug (from $130) and Cade Washable Rug (from $65) as the store's primary washable options, the Duetto Reversible Washable Rug by Lorena Canals (from $309) with a two-sided design, and the Sinclair I and Sinclair III Rugs by Magnolia Home by Joanna Gaines x Loloi (from $38 each) in washable construction. All are machine-washable and designed to maintain their shape and appearance through repeated washing cycles.

How do I wash an area rug in a washing machine?

For machine-washable rugs at Lulu and Georgia, use a large-capacity front-loading washer on a cold, gentle cycle with a mild, non-bleach detergent. Avoid top-loading machines with a central agitator, which can damage the rug's fibers and backing. Air dry flat when possible—lay the rug on a clean surface outdoors or over a drying rack rather than tumbling in a dryer, which can shrink or distort the backing. The Lorena Canals Duetto Reversible Rug (from $309) is also dryable on low heat per its care label.

Are washable rugs as good as non-washable rugs?

Washable rugs at Lulu and Georgia are designed with the same aesthetic standards as the broader rug collection—the Cade Washable Rug (from $65) and Lafayette Washable Rug (from $130) look and feel like designed rugs, not specialty utility items. The trade-off is that washable construction typically uses lighter-weight pile and synthetic or blended fiber, so the underfoot weight and texture won't match a hand-knotted wool rug. For dining rooms, children's bedrooms, mudrooms, and entry areas where cleanability is the priority, washable rugs are the right practical choice.
