A few months ago I moved into my first house so decorating has been a high priority for me. This is also the first place I've lived that has had hardwood flooring instead of carpeting. I love the hardwood floors but the room was looking a little boring and was in need of something more. This rug was just what my dining room needed. It is really soft under your feet and I love the vintage looking colors and pattern. This rug was the perfect size as well it fit under my table and chairs perfectly with a little extra on all sides for when the chairs get scooted out when we're eating. I had to run a carpet shampooer over a spot on the rug that my dog had an accident on and the rug held up great. No fading or fraying or loss of softness. The rug looks and feels brand new even after we cleaned up the spot. I will definitely be adding a few more of these rugs to my home in other rooms I love the softness and durability as well as the design.
