I wanted to love this rug but the moment we unwrapped it from the packaging it smelled heavily of MOLD!!! We let it air out for a few hours in the sun, which helped somewhat but it still smelled up our playroom where it is now. It is also full of lose string that my 3 year old is now wanting to pull on. I get that it’s hand braided but come on Quality is lacking tremendously. Overall looks dirty and moldy. Would not buy again.
