I LOVE the look of this rug.  I bought it as a runner for my upstairs hallway, love it so much, then bought it for my bedroom.  I've had them for a while now and they have held up very well, especially in such a high traffic area.  My only complaint and reason for four stars is that the rug sheds like crazy.  I need to sweep several times a week to keep up with it - which is quite annoying.
