Sounds like a great deal -- cost + steam cleaning. I would do it.

The steam cleaners charged us about 100 per rug.

Good quality wool rugs are expensive. If you like it, buy it. See if you can talk her down fifty bucks so you can pay for the steam cleaning. Just say, "Would you be willing to lower the price a bit so that I can have it steam cleaned?" If she says no, then say ok and buy it anyway.

I'd take it and send it out for a proper cleaning. Wool rugs can be pricey. I'm assuming you like it well enough and that it fits the space.

Buy it; upgrade later

So it's already in the house and you don't yet have anything for that space? I'd take it. It's only $225, and you can steam clean it (but do that over tile or concrete, not on the wood floor).

You can always upgrade later.

Wool rugs can be steam cleaned. We clean ours every Summer. Its expensive, but necessary if you want to keep them in good condition, if you have pets and if you have dust allergies.

If it came with the house and I didn't care about the dog issue, sure. At least it matches. Personally, I'd prefer new as I don't care about wool. Can you offer $150?

Buy used...if it's in good condition then who cares if it's not new...I'd take that over a cheap, new one any day.

Sorry most important question - would you buy it or save for a new one even if it meant lesser quality (ie not wool)

Buying a house and the seller is having an estate sale. One item for sale is a beautiful large (dining room or living room sized) wool area rug that I could snag for about $225. Seems very high quality but she does have kids and a small dog. It seems clean enough but I'm not even sure how I would clean it before use - can I use a steam cleaner on a wool rug?
