The rug overall is good. The natural variability of the hides is beautiful and forgiving of stains. I was disappointed in how much glue was on the surface of the rug at the seams. The excess adhesive collects dirt and is impossible to clean/remove. I can live with it, but I feel a tinge of regret. The rug also sheds. We have had the rug a year, and there are bald spots in the traffic areas. The hide below the fur is still pretty, but anytime I crawl around on the floor with my kids we all end up covered in short white coarse fur. 

I won’t buy this rug again, but it works.
