I got a rug from there and the color was spot on, but I know what you mean about workmanship. While I absolutely love the rug we got, and it's super low price (we got a 5x8 trellis for $100), there are a few stitches that were slightly off. Most normal people won't notice, but since I have a crazy eye for detail like that, it was annoying for like...a day. Now it doesn't bother me. I would still recommend them though, mostly because of the prices. I get tons of compliments on the rug IRL.
The colors in the one I got we're definitely off but I actually prefer it (it's much more cream than beige in person). It's been shedding a good bit and I just had to go around and clip some stray threads but the quality is exactly what'd I'd expect for the price. Overall I'm happy with it.
I also ordered on Black Friday, here's the one I got:

I got one as well on BF. The quality is good. Sheds a bit, but overall I'm happy with the quality for the price I paid. I would definitely buy from them again.

I got one in their Black Friday sale, which I LOVE. It isn't the best quality, but it was $180 for a 9x11, and I didn't have terribly high hopes, so I'm really happy! I won another one in a giveaway a while ago and ended up selling it because it was scratchy and looked cheap.
I think the biggest issue I had with ours was the smell. It ended up sitting in the garage for a couple days to air out.
But mine is under the DR table, so really you can't tell if anything is off b/c of all the furniture on it.
I would definitely consider ordering another one. You can't beat the price and for the wear and tear a good chunk of rugs see in the house, I just can't spend $$$ on something like that.
I ordered one on Black Friday as well. It's like the one pictured above except it's grey. I LOVE IT! I got the 7x9 for like $150 with free shipping. It's extremely good quality. I'm very pleased. In fact, I've been watching their site hoping they'd have another 75% off sale. Does anyone know if they do that around Christmas time?

I've ordered 4 rugs from there. Most of the rugs are not rugsusa brand, even though they are presented that way. In the past they listed the manufacturer, but I think they stopped for some reason. I mention this because I don't think you can compare every rugsusa rug to each other when they are coming from different manufacturers.
Of the rugs I bought, 3 were fanstastic--super soft, very thick wool. The last rug I ordered was also wool, but it's not as dense or soft and is overall a cheaper-looking rug. However, the price was also super cheap, so I tend to think you get what you pay for there. In my case, the nicer rugs were all $350+ on sale. The cheaper looking rug was (larger and) much less. I don't think it's a coincidence.
ETA: maybe the last rug I ordered wasn't wool? Now I'm not sure. Maybe that's the difference?
