I’ve had this rug in our master bedroom for about 9 month, was worried it would be impossible to keep clean - nothing of the kind! It is still in the same shape although we both step on it in outdoor shoes. It vacuums just fine and has not shed. I did hope based on some reviews that it would turn out on a lighterwhiter side but it’s solid cream color as advertised. It feels super soft and plush under bare feet and has a beautiful sheen to it. I’ve gone for a large size 8’x11’ and it adds so much coziness and texture to the room. Super pleased, especially given the price.
