This rug is soooooo SOFT! I was apprehensive about the shagginess of it as Ive purchased other shags on here that were nasty. But after a few vaccums it fluffed up and is so fluffy and soft. The colors are perfect! I would have given it 5 stars but it does smell pretty strong of chemicals when you unroll it!!! Its unpleasant. Once we get a sunny day Ill lay it out so it can expel as much of the VOCS as possible.
