I ordered the 9x13 rug and I think it is more like a 9x12 but for the price I didn't mind.  This is a beautiful rug, I haven't experienced any shedding or any other issues. I laid it out in my garage for the day because I was worried about creases, however there really weren't any. 
We are using a felt pad with it for softness. For the price this rug is a still very happy with the purchase!
