I don't know necessarily that the product is 3 stars vs. what I wanted it for just doesn't work. It flat shipped, which was convenient to open and air out but it was incredibly hard to spread out due to the flat ship, and every little movement makes it ripple despite being underneath our heaviest furniture. 

I'm glad we did air it out though, it smelled pretty horrible (the other rug we ordered didn't smell at all!) at first. The pattern is busier than it looks on the screen and I'm also not very happy with the size (which is more of a fault for Wayfair for their "size suggestion", even though we did measure our furniture; this rug is ENORMOUS). As an a-side, we ordered an additional 8x10' rug for our living room (open concept house) and it fit way better.
