Exactly what I was looking for!  I spent hours on the internet looking for just the right rug for my dining room.  Fell in love with a Serena & Lily rug I found on instagram but was not willing to spend $2K+ for a rug that might get food on it.  This rug is VERY similar for a 1/4 of the price and looks expensive.  It's got a nice plush feel without being too thick.  It has shed quite a bit but this is expected with any new rug.  I do want to mention as other reviewers have stated it is NOT the color it appears online.  Online it appears navy but it is more azure (as the name states), blue with a touch of green, kind of teal/indigo but definitely NOT navy.  It's almost cerulean (aka the best Crayola crayon ever). I absolutely love the color and it goes really well in my space.  I actually like it more than if it were a true navy!
