Avalon Handknotted Moroccan Rug 8x10 vs ODIKA Washable Area Rug

Buy the Avalon if you want a hand-knotted wool-blend rug that can take years of heavy foot traffic and looks like a real design piece. Buy the ODIKA if you need something you can machine wash, want a non-slip backing built in, or have pets and kids. The Avalon wins on construction and longevity; the ODIKA wins on easy cleaning and grip. Owners of hand-knotted rugs like the Avalon report shedding and pilling early on, while washable chenille rugs like the ODIKA tend to flatten and lose their crisp pattern over time.

• Choose the Avalon if you want a durable hand-knotted wool-blend rug for a living room or hallway and don't mind spot cleaning.
• Choose the ODIKA if you want a machine-washable rug with a non-slip backing for a dining room, office or home with pets and kids.
