Question 1. How did you find out about Layout online?
→ I watched the TV program "Wandering the Streets at Night."
Question 2. What made you want a rug?
The Gabbeh carpet I currently have is a little smaller than the electric carpet.
→I learned about Persian carpets (especially Gabbeh) on the TV program "Matsuko's Unknown World" and became interested in them.
Although it is expensive, I wanted to use it throughout the house because of its high quality, long life (it can be used for a lifetime), and variety of designs.
Question 3. What made you choose the rug?
Beautiful red with pink fringes.
- Common point: Gabbehs with cute designs and colors (blue) that match furniture, wallpaper, etc.
- Foot of the sink: Design depicting a hilly landscape.
- Dining room sliding door: The color scheme is based on the natural color of wool, but also includes blue tones.
- Under the stairs: A cute design with a blue motif.
Question 4. What are your impressions after laying the rug?
The simple appearance has been given a playful and cute touch, creating a cozy space. As a result, I've started spending more time in the living room on weekends. As I've used it, the loose wool has decreased and the wool has become softer, making it even more comfortable.
Since we have small children, food often spills, but we can easily vacuum it up, so it's not a big deal.
When you invite friends over to your home, try gathering all the Gabbeh rugs in the house and laying them out in the living room, creating a colorful space that your friends can enjoy as well.
I'm glad I got to know Persian carpets.
Question 5. What are your concerns or worries about lag?
Although it is said that fading adds character to an item, I would like to know how to keep the color fresh for a long time.
Question 6. Do you have any other advice for people looking for a rug?
I think it's best to choose something that matches the atmosphere of your home, such as color, design, and material.
For this reason, I think that if you show photos of your home to the staff and consult with them, you may come across some good things that you would not have noticed on your own.
On the next page, I will share my impressions three months after purchasing the Gabbeh.
Question 7. What are the benefits of having a rug?
The three of us (parents and child) sleep on a low bed, so before we put the rug down, we were worried that our child, who sleeps in a bad position, might fall to the floor and get hurt.
Since putting the rug down, I feel safe knowing it will protect my child from falling out of bed.
Also, since the entire room is dark, just having one rug makes the room much brighter and warmer.
Question 8. What problems have you had with using a rug?
The problem is that a lot of loose hair comes out when you clean the room, and it will probably take a while for the loose hair to settle down.
Question 9: Please tell us how you usually care for your product.
It can be easily cleaned with a light vacuum cleaner. It can also be vacuumed by a Roomba without any problems.
Question 8. How does it feel to use?
I use several different types of Gabbeh, and what I like most about this one is the warmth of the pattern.
Also, the rug itself is quite thick, so it acts as a cushion to protect the child if they trip or fall. With previous rugs, the dirt that got stuck in the weave couldn't be removed with a vacuum cleaner, so I had to use a roller or stick tape on it, but now I don't have to do that anymore. It's really helpful that I can clean it just with a vacuum cleaner.
Question 9. How does it feel to use?
It's truly worth more than the price.
It's very durable and easy to clean, so I'd like to keep using it for a long time.
I'm really looking forward to using it and seeing how it develops its own unique character.
Question 10. Do Layout's rugs offer value beyond their price?
It's definitely worth more than the price.
It's very durable and easy to clean, so I want to keep using it for a long time. I'm also looking forward to seeing how it develops its own character as I use it more.
Mr. U seemed to like the Gabbeh so much that he purchased another one.
Where will Gabbeh be used next?
Question 1. How did you find out about Layout online?
I had previously purchased several rugs and found them very comfortable, so I wanted some in other places as well.
Question 2. What made you choose the rug you purchased?
Bedside: My child would sometimes fall off the bed while sleeping, so I was looking for a long Gabbeh rug, and I liked the floral design, which is unusual for a Gabbeh.
Car seat: I was looking for a square Gabbeh, and I liked that it was light blue, which is rare for a Gabbeh.
Question 3. What are your impressions after laying the rug?
Bedside: It adds an accent to the bedroom and makes it look more glamorous. My child hasn't fallen off the bed since I bought it, but I'm not as nervous about it as I used to be.
Car seat: Like the side of the bed, it adds an accent and looks better.
Question 4. What are your concerns or worries about lag?
Nothing in particular.
Question 5. Do you have any other advice for people looking for a rug?
I feel that Gabbehs in their natural wool color are fluffier than dyed ones.
If you value a fluffy feel, I recommend choosing a Gabbeh that uses the natural color of wool as its base.
[Staff comments]
Mr. U is completely captivated by Gabbeh!
I also like Gabbeh, so it was a happy time talking to him.
Having a variety of sizes makes coordinating outfits fun and exciting!
When you want to change the atmosphere a little, just flipping the rug over will change the look of the room, so try enjoying the unique use and expression of rugs in Japan, where there are four seasons.
