Product Insights
The Wispy Shag Rug offers a safe, durable solution for heated floors—heat-stable polypropylene with no latex backing resists fading, shedding, and dust mites, and undercuts similar shags by 40–44%—but its deep pile reduces heat output, requires a thin open-weave or felt pad, and demands 40–50% humidity to prevent static, along with careful suction-only vacuuming.

Plush quality area rug
This rug warms up the room and invites everyone to touch it because of its soft pile. Great value as well.
Décevant à cause de la bordure du tapis
Sur l’image du produit on nous montre une belle bordure tissée. Mais le tapis que j’ai reçu à seulement le côté le plus long qui est tissé. Sur les deux côtés plus court, il n’y a pas de finition. Je me demande si c’est mon tapis qui a un défaut?
Chaleureux
Tout à fait magnifique
