This rug is really great looking! I was skeptical because it was so cheap, but it looks so nice. It came folded instead of rolled, which seemed odd, but it laid flat right away with no creases. It is a bit itchy, as it is mostly wool. It will probably shed as some people mentioned but I can't attest to that yet, as I have only had it a few days. The pattern is really nice and the color is pretty (I got light blue).
