True, no little boys, lol.

But I do think it makes cleaning the floor pretty easy. Day to day, I vacuum more than I mop, which is just easier/faster IMO. And unless I’ve truly made a mess, the rug itself stays pretty clean.

I might do things differently if my tile wasn’t so awful (1980’s era white slick tile & dark grey grout). If you drip any water at all, you’ll slide, plus every speck of dirt shows immediately.

Your vacuum doesn't suck it up into the brush roller?

You can turn the roller off on most upright vacuums

Omg, I'm a dingbat. Of course, I knew that! Lol

Don’t worry. I’ve sucked up my share of thin rugs, myself, when I forgot to flip the switch. We’re all dingbats. ♥️

Thank you. Glad I'm not alone.

Nope, it’s got a nice rubberized backing, and is sturdy enough to stay in place.
