I love this rug.  Sure wish I could have used this in my den however it was to light for the traffic I have and my poodle that sometimes has accidents.  I decided to keep because I could not return.  I was sick and was not home so I could return.  Make sure you read the return policy on rugs because I would have lost money returning this rug.  So I decided to keep.  Purchased 3 rugs trying to decide which one I liked.  Not smart unless you know someone that can wrap it back up for returns.  Regardless you would still pay quite a bit for returns, and wish there was an exchange policy.  So for this reason I would like to give 3 stars, however I am giving it 5 stars because I think this was my fault for not checking the cost of returns.  Plus I did love the rug!
