apartment therapy changing the world, one room at a time

They have these in stores as well. They're in the home improvement section, though, not the rug section.

For the rest of my post I'll plagiarize myself from this same topic from AT:LA:

I hope that this partnership is successful enough that it allows Target to carry a larger selection in the future. I was very excited the first time I saw these in my local Target, only to be letdown by the color options.

I also wonder how many people miss these while rug shopping since they aren't in the actual rug section of the store. Who'd think to go to the home improvement section for these? I wonder why they don't have at least a mini-display in the section that most people would be looking.

Does anyone know the benefit of buying FLOR tiles from Target as opposed to buying them directly from FLOR? I was just looking at tiles and a fair number of them were $10/tile (some were less), which is what 6 tiles for $60 works out to.

By the way, anyone have experience with the "Fedora" flor tiles? I'm thinking of getting the Fedora in oatmeal.

according to the Target website, there's free shipping for orders over $75 PLUS it says you can return them to any Target store (thereby saving on return shipping if necessary). I've been dreaming about getting FLOR tiles for a long time, so I would be ALL OVER this except for the fact that none of the styles offered work for me. arghh.

oh yeah, and i too would love to know if anyone has experience w/ the Fedora tiles.

FYI -- I put some Flor tiles down in my apartment over wood floors (which are coated with commercial grade sealant) for a period of almost three years -- including an area beneath where my desk chair resides. Fast forward nearly three years. I'm moving out so I peel up the Flor tiles only to discover that the rubber backing had stained the floors underneath the rolling desk chair area. And when I say "stained," I mean s-t-a-i-n-e-d as in it will be that way for all eternity. The other areas were unaffected. If you're using Flor tiles in such a scenario, you might want to peek underneath them from time-to-time.

Third person wanting to know about Fedora! I was all ready to order "heartfelt", and they discontinued that style--fedora looks like it might be a good substitute. But I partly want this rug for its sound absorbing qualities, and if it's extremely thin it might not help much with that, and I'd be better off getting a higher pile rug somewhere. I think I'm going to order a sample.

I love the concept but the price is a tad steep imho...

I have a Fedora carpet, purchased maybe 4 months ago. Although I don't have any other Flor carpets with which to compare, I do believe Fedora is one of the thinnest of them. We have ours on a cement, radiant-heat floor and it works great because the heat can travel through it--and also because it's not so thick you trip on it as you walk by. But it's not something you'd want to lounge on. Hope that's helpful info!

the floor is the most important aspect/perspective of any home, it is foundation. the floor does not need to be level, a level floor is disasterous as it does not teach the structure of the body to tread thoughtfully.

FLOR needs to REI its collection.

OMG! I was in your store in Agra a few years ago. Wow. Beautiful rugs, and great spiced tea. And if anyone else goes to Agra, do not miss the Little Taj.

If all you are looking for is really cheap and simple carpet tiles take a look at these at Rugs USA. They are not as beautiful or fashion forward but they can be great for basements and such
