I was deterred from buying this rug due to some reviews about shedding, but loved the pattern so figured I’d try it. I’m SO glad I did. It’s beautiful, soft and well made as all my other Momeni rugs have been. It is in our formal dining room so not a ton of traffic, but I have had very, very minimal shedding. This is a great dupe for other more expensive antelope rugs. I would buy again and again!
