I like the rug.  I was looking for a soft shag look and feel.  A rug that will feel good on the feet, and it does.  Expect to air it out before putting it in your room.  The rug has a strong chemical smell that is very objectionable.  I've had it for a week.  If the smell does not dissipate completely, I will update this review.  I've given it 4 stars.  I'll also update the star rating after I have owned it for a few months.
