Lowell Point Gray 6' x 9' Rug

Yes, this rug is specifically engineered for durability in busy households. It is power-loomed with a blend of 90% polypropylene and 10% jute. Polypropylene is a high-performance synthetic fiber known for its exceptional resistance to wear, making it an ideal choice for high-traffic zones like entryways, hallways, or family rooms where frequent use is expected.

This rug is an excellent choice for families with pets and children. The power-loomed construction creates a tight, consistent weave that is less likely to snag on claws compared to hand-tufted alternatives. Additionally, the low-profile pile ensures that pet hair and debris remain on the surface rather than becoming deeply embedded, allowing for easier cleanup and a more hygienic living space.

Jute is a natural fiber used in this rug's construction primarily to provide structural integrity and "heft." In power-loomed rugs, a jute backing helps the piece retain its shape over time and prevents it from stretching or warping. This combination of a sturdy jute base with a soft polypropylene top layer offers a perfect balance of long-term stability and underfoot comfort.

To maintain the vibrant colors and integrity of the fibers, our care guidelines recommend vacuuming the rug regularly to prevent dirt from settling into the pile. For accidental spills, the synthetic polypropylene fibers are naturally stain-resistant; we suggest blotting the area immediately with a clean, dry cloth and spot-cleaning with a mild detergent and cool water as needed.

A 6' x 9' rug is a versatile mid-size option that works beautifully in several layouts. In a living room, it is ideal for grounding a seating area where the front legs of your sofa and chairs rest on the rug. For bedrooms, our sizing experts recommend a 6' x 9' rug for a queen-sized bed, as it provides a soft landing on both sides and at the foot of the bed while maintaining a balanced proportion in the room.

Absolutely. Synthetic materials like polypropylene are highly advantageous for humid environments or coastal regions because they are inherently resistant to moisture, mold, and mildew. Unlike natural fibers that can trap humidity, this rug's construction allows it to perform well in varying climates while resisting the "musty" odors often associated with damp conditions.
