I really wanted to give this rug five stars, but the shedding is quite noticeable.  I gave it a couple of weeks, but it basically needs to be vacuumed almost every day.  Full disclosure, it is in a high-traffic, busy room and we have two large dogs who love laying on it.  It does not pill or snag, just the shedding!  Gorgeous color and very soft, so I'm keeping it!
