Our rug has only been in place for a few days, but so far we are very pleased with this "cross my fingers and order" item. The colors are perfect for our home and my husband likes it a lot (not necessarily a given!) It's chancy to order such a large purchase as, if needed, the return is, of course, problematic.. We've vacuumed once and filled the small container with "fuzz" but that's to be expected with this type of rug. So far, so good and I recommend it!
