Ok I love these rugs - I have 2!  But I've got to take one star off because of  the shedding that is still continuing after more than a month and many vacuumings.  It has actually caused some damage to my awesome Shark vacuum.  It is amazing to see how much material is coming off of these carpets every time I vacuum them.  I literally have to take the hoses apart and dig out all of the balls of fluff.  So there's that.  But they are super pretty!
