I bought rugs for my living room, dining room and hallway. The Anabia is a beautiful rug. It looks and feels great. The rugs (10x14, 8x8 and2.3 x8) were folded up for over two months, no problem with laying flat. No problem with any odor, vacuums well (great for the arms). The only drawback was the dining room rug was not a full 8x8. I would give it 4.5 stars.
