Initially, I loved this rug but it's now being rolled up and placed in storage (I would feel guilty selling/giving this to someone knowing the issue). The minimal pattern and colors were exactly what I was looking for. Unfortunately, the rug sheds uncontrollably! I've had it for almost 4 months and there are fibers all over my living room even with daily vacuuming. Not sure how there are so few reviews mentioning how terribly it sheds.
