This beautiful room sized rug arrived today. just 2 days after ordering. It hasn’t even been in place for 6 hours, but as you can see, it’s already flattened out. Gorgeous, soft, and the perfect colors to hide fur from my English Cream Golden Retriever. Yes, it sheds at first, like any wool rug, but one vacuuming pretty much eliminated the problem. There is a very slight odor, also normal, and it’s already dissipating. I couldn’t be more satisfied with this purchase! Buy it, you definitely won’t regret it.
