14 Washable Rugs You Won’t Believe You Can Throw in the Machine

Living rooms are high traffic areas, so we love that this rug's neutral pattern hides any spills or scuffs—while looking luxe. Its textured gray hue boasts the appearance of crushed velvet, adding depth to any room whether you opt for rectangular or round. Better yet, its low-pile polypropylene fibers repel dirt and moisture, making it easier to clean in between washes. It features a non-slip backing for seamless setup, and it comes in 14 sizes.

Because you can just throw it in the washing machine, one thing's worth noting: The rug itself is rather thin, so you may want to stick a rug pad underneath for extra cushion.
