Woven Rug

How can you tell if a rug will be nice and thick and soft or thin and crappy?
This is the information they give on the website:
"These rugs are constructed of 40% Duo-Weave and drop-stitch cut lines for outstanding definition. The construction of these unique rugs achieve over two hundred color-blend effects including 8-color super plush yarn, as well as 960,000 points per square meter."
It's machine woven and made from polypropylene or olefin.
Does that sound like a nice rug? I don't know what any of these terms mean. Except super plush yarn - that sounds good.
I know it's not the very best quality rug. Those would be 100% wool from New Zeland and be handmade.
I just want to know if it's a nice decent rug or a cheap flimsy rug.
Not really if it is made from olefin or polypropylene. Those are synthetic fibers and though easier to clean than wool or silk, they do not provide the loft. Some acyrlics are plush, thick and the fiber won't mat in high traffic areas. It also does not say what the backing is made of which makes me suspect rubber or latex. Once wet, these begin to disintegrate, flake and peel.
