When I ordered this I expected a FLAT weave runner NOT for the pieces to be flayed and damaged. This rug looks pretty and matched what I wanted however I don’t like how flayed it is and I JUST got this! The minute I put it down the bamboo weaves were sticking up. I’m thinking of returning or getting a refund bc this was way too expensive to be doing this. Also, I assumed it would be smooth not hard and uncomfortable to walk on. If you have kids I wouldn’t recommend it bc of the sharp bamboo that breaks. It’s NOT smooth at all. Better for outdoor versus indoor. I love the style just wish it was more efficient and better quality.
