The rug is beautiful, but sheds like crazy. We’ve had woolen high pile rugs before and haven’t seen this much shedding. My living room is covered with lint like we had a pack of sheep living there.
The hairball I vacuum up very other day is two handfuls worth...

Update on 12/31/2018: We've decided to get rid of this rug, as the shedding has not stopped 4 months after purchase. I have been vacuuming the living room every other day, as so much carpet lint is a health hazard for my four year old who basically plays on or around it. This has been a very disappointing purchase. Wayfair, please take notice here.
