I had to wait a bit due to backorder, but once it was available my rug arrived as expected. Wonderful large size, good quality, minimal "new rug" smell- just a little leathery, because it's leather! Not an offensive or health hazardous odor. 
The fringe was a little uneven and required some trimming, easy to do. 
I like the weight of the rug, it lays beautifully from the get go. And I appreciate that it doesn't cover me in fibers if I sit on the floor, my previous jute rug never stopped shedding fibers.
