Of course it's beautiful when you 1st get it, it seems to matt down after walking on it and we've only had it for 4 or 5 months. 
The very worst part is the very bottom layer of this beautiful shag rug is almost like a magnet to any lint or ANYTHING and you can't even vacuum it up! Or shake it out! there's no way to even clean it like it looks confetti ridden.
 That is very frustrating I probably gave more stars than I should have it's a beautiful rug if you buy it put it somewhere where people aren't gonna walk on it or any lint gets on it.
 It's a beautiful display rug but not practical in any way.
