Really pretty rug and loved that it was machine washable! However, as others have mentioned, because the pattern is printed onto the rug and not woven it wears fairly easily. I had this rug sitting near two desks/chairs and just the movement of the chairs over the rug (not aggressively I might add) started to create faded spots - thankfully we moved the rug before the spots became bigger. For the price I paid (got it while it was on sale) I'm not really upset about this but certainly expected better quality. I would still recommend this rug to someone considering it with the caveat that it should be placed in a lower traffic/use area.
