Does anyone have a jute rug in their living room

[livelyparsnip]

I have found a gorgeous rug but I’m worried about it being rough and not welcoming for a living room. Does anyone have any thoughts?

My issue with them is they are almost impossible to clean. So if you have dogs or kids I wouldn’t suggest it.

I had one
it wasn’t rough and it looked great -
but I could not clean it and when I tried to get off stains it created patches

We have one as our doors to our garden opening into the front room, so wanted something hard wearing. It’s great, not the comfiest to sit on but last well. I give ours a bash out in the garden every few months. But impossible to clean it anything gets spilt on it!

Ahh ok! I have 3 primary aged children so it seems this is the issue rather than how it feels!
