Not only was this rug a great price and delivered to our door (the FedEx guy was nice enough to bring it inside), the rug holds up so well and stays very flat. We have a menagerie of pets and this rug holds up to all of them. We do have to vacuum often, but that's the least of our worries. Any pulls we get stay intact so we can trim them and have no one any wiser. A great purchase!
