This rug is not made well at all. The braiding is very loose and frays very easily, both around the edges and the inside. It looks like scraps of fabric were used and just meshed together. I would not recommend this product. We don't have children in the house, it's just two adults and no pets. It was coming apart soon after using it. We are also seeing moths in the area where the rug is, and we hadn't seen them before buying this rug.
