I was so excited for this rug and must have had way too high of hopes. This rug is great visually, but otherwise has been terrible for our home. It nonstop sheds and I’ve vacuumed more times than I can count. The intention of it was to be an area rug that I could hang out with my baby while she’s crawling and playing. Because this is constantly shedding fibers it was getting all over her hands/feet/toys which inevitably would end up in her mouth. It would probably work well underneath a dining room table or somewhere that doesn’t get much action. Really disappointed and wanted to love it.
