Looks aside, area rugs help absorb and decrease noise as they soften the step of hardwood and tile flooring. Machine-made in Turkey, this one is constructed from polypropylene, a colorfast and stain-resistant material that naturally repels moisture – making cleanup a cinch! It features a 0.5" pile height, ideal for promoting a cozy and inviting feel to your space with the added benefit of being easy to clean. To keep this piece safely in place, we recommend using a rug pad.
