i love the rug and would have given it 5 stars except for one feature. the adhesive label (there are actually 2--one large and one small) on one side is impossible to remove without distorting and pulling the cotton fibers out of shape.  so that means unless i find a way to remove it safely it can not truly be considered reversible.  i googled the question and a few suggestions were to use Goo Gone.  as i have only had the rug a few days i haven't tried to do this yet.  the colors are great with my bedroom makeover, and it seems sturdy.  it's a keeper!
