Within 4 days of putting this rug down on our floor, it had 5 different pulls where the string had been pulled out. We don’t wear shoes in our house and I honestly can’t think of a single thing that could be pulling threads. We have never had this problem with other rugs, and I’m really shocked st the poor quality. This rug is also extremely thin with very little backing, so I’m not surprised it damages so easily. Do not purchase. We are returning our’s.
