I purchased four runners of this rug to picture frame an area rug in a toddler's room.  If you only need one of these they're great, soft, 'loop' shag.  For my purpose they're really 3.5 stars because each one is a bit longer/shorter in one of the two dimensions so they do not fit together as I was hoping.  This means the picture framing is a bit off and requires more carpet tape to make it work.
