The rug is lovely.  That being said, I got it in April, 2019 - a little over a year ago.  They describe it as being able to withstand high traffic.  It is under my dining room table so the only traffic is that of feet while sitting at the table, not even walking on it.  The area where my husband puts his feet has completely shredded.  It looks like a cat sharpened it's claws there.  I am very disappointed in the quality and will not buy from this manufacturer again.  I am not made of money and cannot afford to replace a rug every year.  Buyer beware!
