We absolutely love this rug!  We were searching for a rug for our large foyer area.  Because of a bench that is located there, we didn't want a rectangular shape.  This round rug is perfect.  We have two dogs and even with the heavy traffic area and the dogs walking over the rug regularly, the rug doesn't need to be vacuumed any more than our previous rug.   There are a variety of colors in the rug, not just a boring brown.  It's so pretty!
