These rugs definitely are not "superior".  I read several of the reviews before purchasing them and took other's advice and washed them before using.  Actually I washed them 4 times before the lint was almost gone, however after putting them on my floors (one is carpet, the other tile), they started shedding the first time they were stepped on.  I am very disappointed in the cheap construction and fabric of these rugs and would have liked to request a refund but had already shredded the paperwork thinking they would be something fantastic -- far from it!!!  This was my first order from Wayfair and highly doubt I will order anything ever again.

Pros: Lots of color choices
Cons: Cheap fabric, LOTS OF SHEDDING even after washing several times
