Which is better for a high-traffic living room?

The nuLOOM. It is stain-resistant, pet-friendly and built for high-traffic areas, and thousands of owners back that up. The Parkerfield is fine for living rooms but has a much smaller review base.

Which rug is thicker?

The Parkerfield, at about 0.37 inch versus 0.3 inch for the nuLOOM. Both are medium pile, and nuLOOM owners often say theirs feels thinner than expected.

Which is better for pets?

The nuLOOM. It is marketed as pet-friendly and stain-resistant. The Parkerfield lists no stain resistance.

Is the Parkerfield worth stepping up to?

Only if you want its farmhouse pattern and slightly thicker pile. Its 4.9 rating rests on 14 ratings, so the nuLOOM is the safer choice on track record.

Does either rug need a rug pad?

The Parkerfield has no backing and needs a rug pad on hardwood. The nuLOOM is loomed and works on tile, hardwood and laminate, though a pad still helps it stay put.

Which has more size options?

The nuLOOM. It comes in multiple sizes including round and runner. The Parkerfield is a single rectangle size.
