I have had this rug for almost a year. Upon first impression the rug is beautiful and just the look I wanted however over time the quality decreased. The weave of the rug is not as small or tightly packed as pictured. Beware you cannot vacuum it at all (not even with a broom). I have tried multiple times to clean it based on the care instructions and it pulls and unravels. It has come apart even with normal foot traffic. To try to make it look decent I have to go through and individually push the pulls to the underside of the rug. Dissapointed.
