A plush shag-style area rug constructed from cut-pile polyester fibers, suitable for living rooms and hallways. Classified under HTS 5705.00.20.30 because it is an 'other' textile floor covering of man-made fibers with exposed textile surface during use. Not tufted on backing or knotted, distinguishing it from earlier headings.
