I had shopped for area rugs at several local stores.  Everything I liked that seemed durable was way out of my price range.  After seeing several unique things that came from Wayfair while watching HGTV, I decided to give it a try.  This rug surpassed my expectations.  It compared to those I was drawn to in the stores, but was only about one-fourth the price.  

Pros: great value, well-made
Cons: I had to add non-slip patches to the corners so it would not slip on my laminate flooring.
