We bought this rug because it had a nice simple pattern with the blue accent we wanted. But once we set it up, we noticed fibers stuck all over us after sitting or standing on it. Literally hours of vacuuming later, it's still shedding. I filled the vacuum about 6 or 7 times, to the top with white and blue fibers and it still sheds. I'm pretty sure you could vacuum it until there was nothing left. The fibers spread across the entire upper floor of our house. Without constant vacuuming, this rug will spread to cover your entire home with carpeting. I guess in a weird sort of way, this means you get more for your money? Anyways, this rug sucks and we're returning it.
