I needed a couple of area rugs that would not compete with the Kas Art Deco rug that defines the seating area of my living room. I purchased the Loft Rust runner and 3'6" x 5'6" made by Momeni. I placed this rug at my entry with a bench for guests to remove their shoes. They track across this rug to get to the bench and so far it seems to be holding up very well. The description for the Loft rugs said open-backed which turned out to be everything I hoped for. These rugs are nice and thick, comfortable to walk on, lay flat, do NOT smell, do not have any backing....no stinky glue emitting foul odor and toxic vapors and breaking down into white powder a couple of years down the road.The overall look is that of a rust color with subtle shades of olive and lighter rust. I am very happy with this purchase. The rugs are beautiful.
