I’ll start from the beginning. Rug arrived on time. The absolute best packaging. It was double wrapped in heavy duty plastic. I ordered for my living room but have moved it to my dining room. I love the subtle colors yet distinct design. The description was very helpful and pictures true to color. I would have ordered more but they were back ordered at the time. I am not having a problem with the shedding I have read about in other reviews, but mine is not a high traffic area.
