LOVE LOVE LOVE!!!! Bought it for the boys room and it looks amazing. Yes it sheds but I only notice it after I vacuum inside the vacuum. I expected to have to vacuum it much more often. It really isn’t high maintenance as I was thinking it would be. We have had it for a couple months and it’s still as awesome looking as the first day. Really don’t know what is shedding on it because the rug is still just as plush and looks exactly the same even after all those vacuum-fulls of fine black hair. The first couple days I noticed the fine hairs on boys’ clothes after they’d roll around on it but after the first couple times vacuuming it stopped shedding as much.
