I love this rug. I did use a rug pad under it so it didn't slide around. It's a shag rug and not very fun to vacuum with my Shark vacuum, but I still love it. Also, my Roomba won't move on it either. It doesn't shed and the colors are true to what my monitor showed. It does get a few stray strands on the edges once in a while, but that's because that area is high traffic at my house. I think the rug ties my room together well. Also, it made my dining room look larger than it looked with our old rug. That must be the stripes or the creamy white color or both...
