The most talked-about aspect of machine-woven rugs is their production speed, but for the user, the real difference lies elsewhere: repeatability. With machine-woven rugs, you have a much higher chance of finding a second piece of the same pattern, a different size, or a continuation of the same series later on. The collection lists 1,176 models.
Finding the Same Rug Again
The decision to buy a rug for your home is often not a one-time event. You might want the same pattern you have in your living room for the hallway, or a piece might wear out and need an identical replacement. Loom production ensures this continuity; each piece comes from the same pattern file, minimizing differences in tone and texture. For the same reason, it’s easier to complete a series if your room layout changes or when you move.
Choosing Pile Height
Models in this collection are predominantly made from polypropylene and polyester fibers; pile height varies significantly from model to model. This choice is less about how the rug looks and more about how it will be used.
- Low pile: Causes fewer issues with chair wheels, door clearance, and high-traffic areas; quick to vacuum.
- Medium pile: Strikes a balance between the two extremes; the most frequently chosen range for areas like living rooms that are both sat in and walked through.
- High pile: Provides softness underfoot, preferred for seating areas and in front of beds; tends to trap more dust.
What Synthetic Fibers Do and Don't Do
A polypropylene surface doesn't immediately absorb liquids, which allows time for intervention. However, it's wise to be cautious about color fading in areas exposed to direct sunlight for extended periods, and permanent indentations under heavy furniture; rotating the rug a few times a year helps balance both effects. Products are shipped with a 12-month manufacturer's warranty.
Is it suitable for homes with children?
Low-pile and tightly woven models are comfortably used in this scenario. If you anticipate frequent washing, it's also worth looking at the washable rugs collection.
What exactly is the difference from hand-woven?
In hand-woven rugs, each knot is tied by hand, and no two pieces will be exactly identical; with machine-woven rugs, standardization and continuity are paramount. To see the other end of the comparison, you can visit the hand-woven rugs collection.
