Ive purchased 2 rugs from Ercan, The Rugman of Santa Fe. His knowledge of rugs is extensive as is his quality collection. He was very patient as I needed to bring home one rug twice to test ride and make sure it was right. I would not hesitate for a moment to do further business with Ercan. In fact, I am discussing with him now the possibility of repairing an antique Persian rug.

The owner took great care to make time for me to schedule an appointment to look at rug options for my living room. He was so patient and helpful and offered great suggestions to help with my current furniture colors. I absolutely love my new rug! Great customer service and stunningly beautiful rugs!! Highly recommended this shop!

The Rugman inventory is impressive and there are styles for all types of homes. Ercan has incredible knowledge of his rugs and can quickly find the right rug for your home and style. His prices are great and the service is excellent.

We have had an excellent experience with Rugman of Santa Fe, both in purchasing Navajo rugs and in having them restored, cleaned and shipped to us. Reasonable prices and attention to detail in the restoration and cleaning was much appreciated! Kudos to Ercan Nalkiran, he always responded timely to our questions/emails and his follow-through was great.

I brought in a rug to be cleaned that is regularly slept on by my dogs. Needless to say, it had serious cleaning challenges. Ercan was determined to work on the rug until it met his standards (although I assured him I did not expect him to). The rug was cleaned to perfection, and when it took extra time to get it looking great, Ercan even delivered it to my door. Great service - I will always go there with my rug needs and recommend to my friends.

The Rugman of Santa Fe has a wonderful inventory of stunning rugs. They have a lot of different styles and all sizes. We loved our experience and are thoroughly enjoying our beautiful rugs. They are so well made and have made our house all the more special. We will definitely be shopping again. Thank you!!

A walk-through of The Rugman of Santa Fe leaves little doubt that they know fine quality rugs and offer a selection of (amazing!) new and used area rugs (as well as a few other artful treasures!) Do not miss the opportunity to visit this unique boutique if you visit Santa Fe!My husband and I were impressed (given the high quality of their merchandise and expertise) that they accepted our menial request for a humble rug cleaning! We were traveling through NM on a medical work assignment in our Airstream travel trailer. My kitchen rug (2x6 ft runner) was in need of some stain removal and overall cleaning. The service at Rugman was warm, congenial, and faster-than-promised. Our rug is again an attractive centerpiece to our home-on-the-road. We are grateful for their hands-on rug cleaning service and are happy with the pile and color rejuvenation of our rug!Thank you, Rugman!

I am an Interior Design consultant and have worked with Ercan for several years. I have referred many clients and friends to him. They have all been very happy with his service knowledge and prices. He is very easy to work with.

I highly-recommend The Rugman of Santa Fe. I had a long shag rug cleaned here. My experience was EXCELLENT. I received an accurate estimate, they picked up the rug as scheduled, dropped it off as scheduled, and did an incredible cleaning job! Top-notch customer service and great business ethic at a reasonable rate!

Suzani shop is a bit of a disaster. Rude woman practically tried to talk us out of coming in, said a ton of factually incorrect things about Suzani, Ikat and central Asian textiles in general. Then proceeded to follow us around the store. What a horrible trap of a shop. I didn’t even bother going to the main shop despite her trying to convince me to go there because the “selection is better”.

The Rugman of Santa Fe is an amazing experience in rugs. The shop keeper quickly determined my tastes and preferences and helped guide me through his wide selection of carpets and kilims. His staff also are skilled at cleaning, sizing, and restoring rugs in most any condition. And, you can learn the story behind each rug in the shop.

Ercan and his crew were such a pleasure to work with. I purchased my first rug in the Spring of last year and went back to purchase a second rug a few months later. They made the whole process so incredibly easy for me. I’ve also used their rug cleaning service and I simply wouldn’t go anywhere else.

Highly responsive. Excellent customer service. The Rugman of Santa Fe cleaned all of our rugs and replaced all of the padding with new, beautiful custom cut pads. The rugs came back like brand new.

Its great to find a business in Santa Fe that is truly professional in customer service and product satisfaction. Thats The Rugman of Santa Fe! Everything was done on my timing with friendliness and a very acceptable price. The result was perfect - my rug (and rug pad, Ercan smartly suggested cleaning, too!) is back in place, bright and fresh.

Rugman has cleaned my rugs several times. He comes to pick them up, gives me a price, and brings them back when theyre done. They are very professional and take pride in the whole operation (service and sales).

With a new dog in the house, I had use of a reliable rug cleaning service for my Asian and Navajo rugs. Cleaning services were excellent - along with pick-up and drop-off. I definitely recommend the Rugman for all your area rug needs.

We have used Ercans wonderful services in all kinds of ways: carpet cleaning, repair, purchase, and even weaving in an additional design element to a custom rug that we had a Navajo weaver make for us. Ercan and his crew are very courteous and very competent and a pleasure to spend time with.

We had an excellent experience at Rugman of Santa Fe. We were looking for a Navajo rug of a specific size and Ercan had one that fit the bill, had a beautiful design and was better priced than ones we had seen on the plaza. Ercan also permitted us to take it home and see if it worked before we made the purchase. It looks great and would be sure to check out Rugman first for any future purchases. Thanks! Ed & Steve

A friend of my dads gave him several Navajo rugs which he then passed on to me. They were in really bad shape - dirty, stained with dog urine and had thin spots, holes, and areas where the edges were unraveling. Ercan and his team carefully cleaned the rugs and then, through some secret alchemical process, were amazingly able to get out the urine stains which had hardened and seemed to have permanently destroyed the wool. They also were able to correct where the dyes had bled on some of the rugs. The cleaned rugs are now absolutely stunning. The next step is getting the rugs repaired and Ercan helped me choose one of the more valuable rugs to start that process. I just received that rug back this week and the transformation is incredible. His team rewove areas and strengthened thin areas in such a way that the repairs are perfectly blended. The rug is completely restored to its former glory! I cant say enough about the workmanship, professionalism, and integrity of Ercan and his team.-- annie

What a delightful experience working with professional rug experts! Our new house was empty, and with its concrete floors, it needed rugs. From the time my husband and I casually walked into The Rugman of Santa Fe’s Lincoln Street store to a separate casual visit days later at the Old Santa Fe Trail location, we found our rugs. And, in a modern way: I took pictures of the rugs we liked at both locations, and then sent the pictures to Burcu Tuzen, who arranged to have them all at Lincoln Street so we could see them together. After selecting our favorites, late that same afternoon, Burcu and the owner, Ercan Nalkiran, brought the rugs to our house (now with furniture) for our final approval. Gracious and knowledgeable people. And, both stores have an excellent selection of rugs.

Ercan is very knowledgable and he listens. If you are needing a quality floor covering and want to make a great investment in a piece of art that will potentially improve your quality of life on several levels, you will be in good hands with The Rugman. Highly recommended.

I recently had all of my rugs cleaned and repaired by the The Rugman of Santa Fe. Ive lived in SF a long time and have used several different services. The Rugman of Santa Fe was by far the best experience ever. Ercan and his team of experts offer friendly, polite, and professional, fast service. I received my rugs back in just a few days, sparkling clean with invisible repairs. Their prices are very fair as well. I will be using them from now on and highly recommend them.Peggy Fino Santa Fe

Ercan and the team at the Rugman of Santa Fe are consummate professionals who really understand the rug business and provide stellar customer service. Even though our home is in California, we decided to work with them because they were able to provide expert advice on the best rug pad options for our home, which has Saltillo tile, and source affordable yet beautiful rugs. Best of all, their selection of rugs is phenomenal and they will send your selections on spec, if desired. I recommend them wholeheartedly!

I just picked up my great Navajo Yei carpet which Ercan and his team de-bled over the past 6 weeks. I am very, very pleased and am returning with other carpets to be washed. A very professional organization.

Ercan, the owner of the Rugman of Santa Fe, came with an associate to my house a week ago on a Saturday and spoke with me about washing and cleaning 8 rugs and installing new custom pads. The rugs are generally between 40 and 50 years old and are as follows:6x113 Esme-Turkey62x11 Kuba-Azerbaijan42x610 Balkan-Immigrant kilim9x11 Besarabian Kilim32x410 Indian kilim58x10 Esme -Turkey83x6 Sumak-Pakistan112x83Sarkoy-Balkan KilimHe did an outstanding professional job and came within 6 days to reinstall them in the house. The rug washing and cleaning price was extremely reasonable as was the new pads. My pads were in very poor condition so I ordered new much better ones. I highly recommend The Rugman of Santa Fe.

Ercan Nalkiran (aka the rugman of Santa Fe) infuses his lovely Turkish hospitality into his exceptionally professional yet low-key business practices. I was delighted with the outcome of having four rugs recently cleaned. Two are pricey Kashmiri wools, one a hand-woven Portuguese Arraiolos, and the forth an inexpensive dhurrie. Ercan gave equal care to cleaning them all perfectly, and took the extra step to make a repair to the Arraiolos without being asked - or charging extra to do so! His family assistants are so helpful and capable. The entire experience is a moment from less hassled times past, when quality workmanship, a pleasant interaction, and a fair price were more the norm.
