I bought his rug for my daughter's purple theme princess bedroom. I chose this rug for the lilac color, which is very hard to find. The color of the rug is perfect, but it feels very rough to the touch. It's not good quality and it doesn't compare at all to another shag rug I bought in the same price range. I would return it but I can't find another rug with this particular color. I just wish it were softer. Also, the plastic wrapping tore off on one side so the rug came dirty on one end.
