I looked at a lot of rugs to put under my chair because we got new carpet and I have a tendency to put my feet in the same place on the floor and it was just slightly starting to wear, I finally picked this one and am soooo happy I did, it wears awesome, meaning it hasn't worn at all yet, even with my feet in the same place, it is a little darker than our carpet but that's ok and I like the swirl design
