I needed an inexpensive rug for an odd sized entry area that should be tiled. I am very pleased with this, it looks great, I needed to cut into it for a fit, I can flip and tape later if used elsewhere. It will clean well, vacuum well. I gave it 3 stars because it's not a luxury rug nor did I want one for this particular use. It's highly utilitarian. I did experience a headache from the odor for a few days but I'm highly sensitive. It's just fine now and exceeds what I wanted.
