This area rug is one sure way to soften the noise of loud steppers while adding a little antique style to any bedroom or living room floor with its Oriental-style pattern. It's power-loomed from a stain-resistant acrylic blend that's sure to stand up to the occasional spill or splash under the kitchen table. This rug also has a medium 0.3" pile that's perfect for rolling out in high-traffic living spaces since it adds softness without interrupting swinging doors. And although this machine-made rug has a cotton and latex backing to help keep it in place, it performs best when paired with a rug pad to prevent shifting underfoot, especially if you have rowdy little ones or fur babies on the loose.
