Is this rug soft enough for a living room?

It is a flat weave, so it feels firm and low rather than plush. The cotton backing adds some cushioning, but it is not a soft shag.

Does it need a rug pad?

A pad is recommended on hardwood or tile. It reduces slipping and adds comfort underfoot.

Can it go under furniture?

Yes. The low profile lets chairs and sofa legs sit on it without wobbling.

Vacuum regularly on a low setting and blot spills promptly. Spot clean with a mild detergent and let it air dry.

Is the 5' x 8' size right for a living room?

It works for smaller living rooms or as a front layer under a coffee table. Larger rooms usually need a bigger size to fit all seating on the rug.

Our take on the SAFAVIEH Marbella Jaydon Striped Area Rug

The Safavieh Marbella Jaydon is a hand-woven flat-weave area rug in a beige striped pattern, sized 5' x 8'. It is made from durable synthetic yarns with a soft cotton backing that adds cushioning underfoot. Flat-weave construction keeps it low-profile, so it lies flat under furniture and works in doorways and busy rooms. It suits casual, coastal and contemporary living rooms where an easy-care, reversible-style flat weave fits better than a plush pile rug.
