fits what I was looking for .I had thought it would be a little more plush more shag. It neither looks , nor feels like a rug. Rather like an oversized throw rug . I would probably like it as a throw rug in a larger bathroom . Without a rug pad , I would not use it for the location it was intended for. Not because of slipping, it is secured by 2 sofas , but because the pad gives it a little substance. I gave 4 stars , because for what it is , it seems off fair quality . No shedding . I think my problem will also be keeping it clean. It looks and feels like it should just be thrown into the wash, but of course is way to large for that, and professional cleaning at the same cost as my wool rugs, will feel like a waste.
