Rug manufactures are purchasing high tech looms that can weave rugs better than ever. Today, companies are continuing to push the envelope in producing rugs with more colors and with higher definition or detail. High Density machine made rugs can now have the look that you could of only gotten in a high knot count hand made rug just a few years ago. Rugs with 1,000,000 points per square meter or higher are in good demand by customers. At first, these high density area rugs were only being made with man made fibers but now companies like Home Dynamix have rug collections that offer wool rugs in high density construction of 1,000,000 points or more.
At 123eRugs.com, we recommend customers shop for 1,500,000 to 2,000,000 point rugs for the best definition, but as the point count goes up the rug feel is tighter and harder. These rugs are great under dining room tables, at entrance ways, or anywhere with lots of traffic like hallways and stairs. However, if you need a soft feel along with the definition in the rug, we recommend that you consider the 1,000,000 point rugs. These rugs have definition but still have some give in the pile to offer a softer feel. Lower point count rugs from 300,000 to 800,000 still have a place in the market place. They offer customers a softer feel and in most cases will cost less. However, there continues to be a high demand for the high density look and as more rug manufacturers enter the high density market, lower price points and better selection will continue to make these rugs even more attactive to customers.
