Overall the rug is great - soft and great colors! I love the Persian look, but we have 4 kids so I wanted something that was still somewhat durable and didn't shed a ton. We are enjoying how it pulls our family room together making it cozy. 

We ordered the 9.6'x13' rug. It looks slightly different (pattern and colors are stretched out a bit) than the picture because of the large scale. Wish they featured photos of the rug at each size. It was packaged well. Upon unrolling it had quite a strong smell (because it is a synthetic material). I expected some smell, but it was probably amplified due to the size. After about a week and trying to air out the space it no longer smells. As with any rug, a fiber pulls up occasionally after the first few vacuums. I try to snip them when I see them so they don't snag.
