Update, we have had this rug for 11 months nearly, and I am not so impressed. We are 2 adults with pretty normal lifestyles but not excessively running in and out this door. The wear on this rug really is not acceptable and I would not recommend anyone to purchase it. Love the look but everything is shiny when new but this aged terribly. I definitely would not put it under a pool table! Old review Love this rug so much, I may just buy another.
