Accidentally started this review.  This rug is in the dryer right now, but even in the wash it had a few of the nibs pull out.  However, not in nearly as bad shape as the other chenille rug by the same seller.  We will see how it looks out of the dryer and whether it is worth paying to return it.  It is SUPER pretty and comfy, but I'm afraid the quality does not hold up on 2 different bath rugs I bought from this same "Virginio" chenille group.  Okay - out of dryer and still MOSTLY intact.  I will not be returning this one, but I will not purchase any more from this maker.  **Of note - I wash rugs and blankets in this washer every week and never have this happen - even handmade crocheted blankets - it is not my washer.  It is the poor quality of the rugs.**
