Very pretty color, cleans easily and does not shed. The edges do curl slightly. I have the House of Hampton Alice shag in my nursery. It looks almost identical and the pile is much thicker and softer. I would have ordered that one instead if I knew that there was going to be such a difference in texture. Overall, a decent shag for the price and it looks great, but it could stand to be a little thicker and softer for my taste.
