These rugs get 5 stars for beauty, thickness and feel to the feet. We ordered a 7' x 9' and a 2' x 3' ahead of time for our living room. We are having carpet replaced with wood in October. I saw this rug and didn't want to take the chance not being able to get it later. I read all the reviews, and regardless of the shedding reports, I am taking the plunge. I am keeping the large rug packaged until we need it, but the small rug shows me what I need to see. The color is vibrant and I love how thick the pile is! They are going to go beautifully with my decor, and I cannot wait to have it all set up!
