Bought a 2x8 runner and the 10’8” square area rug.  The reason for 4 star is the 10’8” rug came folded in half.  Now it is even more difficult to get it to lay flat.  The runner is much more detailed than the 10’8” rug.  Although this brown rug is beautiful and goes extremely well with my furniture, I am still taken aback from the shipping method.  A lot of the lighter color on the 10’8” rug, so do be aware of that on the larger sizes.  The runner was rolled and pretty flat other than the inner rolled part.  The rug is soft but on the thin side.  Sale price makes it worth the aggravation.  The 10’8” is a perfect fit for our sectional furniture!  Overall, pleased with color, size and feel.  Just really disappointed that it was folded!
