THIS RUG SHEDS TERRIBLY! It’s beautiful and we are so torn on whether to return it or not. But unfortunately we are planning to return. We spent an hour vacuuming it and all it did was clog up or vacuums within seconds and had to empty constantly, and it still sheds. It looks like we own animals (and we don’t!). If you don’t mind fuzz everywhere I would say get it, because it is beautiful. We simply didn’t want to deal with the shedding.
