I did not think I would love this rug as much as I did. It’s bright and funky and fun, giving pop to a normal dark brown leather couch in a small apartment. I had to throw it out after about 1.5 years because no rug can withstand the wrath of shedding black dog hair and filthy paws (she loved the rug too). I can absolutely see myself buying it again. As you can see from the pic, the edges were curled and needed to be flattened but they did ultimately flatten. And my red table looked really great on the rug. (I did not use those pillows with it!)
