It’s been 6 months.  I purchased stain protection.  I just cleaned the rug and it doesn’t look much better.  See how one looks good, clean and the print is crisp  The other where it gets some foot traffic is still dirty, dingy and almost smeared looking.  Looks worse in person.  Also it is shedding.  The design is just printed on top.  I mean, I guess for the price, what do you expect
