This is our 2nd time buying this rug and we still love it! We purchased our first one several years ago, and for the price it was easier to buy a new one instead of getting it professionally cleaned. I receive so many compliments on this rug whenever I post photos with it in it, and it is soooo soft on your feet. I have 2 small children and a dog and they love to roll around and play on the floor, so I wanted a soft to the touch rug. This rug also does NOT shed at all! Best rug ever!
