Just received this rug yesterday. I'm very pleased with the quality. It's insanely soft and the color is interesting... depending on which way the fibers are going it either looks very dark gray or metallic silvery. The pile is higher than I expected. It's very fluffy, but it hasn't shed at all yet which is good. I guess I didn't realize how low the pile was on the shag rug in our living room. I purchased this rug for our entry hallway. It may end up being a bit too shaggy for the area, but we'll give it a go. If it doesn't work out, I'll move it to the foot of the bed in the bedroom and try another rug in the entry. It's a great rug. Overall, I'm very happy. The price was right. Just not EXACTLY what I expected.

Pros: Very soft, no shedding, great price.
