The rug pad was a great value and does the job for our new area rug.  The area rug ties our room together nicely and you can't beat the price for a family room rug.  My kid and my dog are lazing about on it so I figure that's a good sign.  It is not wool--it is synthetic so there is so,e shedding and it's a little 'slippery' when you walk on it with socks but that should subside over time. 

Pros: Rich colors, good price, fincational
Cons: None
