Absolutely loved this rug for my daughter's room. It is just the right shade of pink and the cotton is soft. She plays with her toys on it all the time and it is holding up very well. Would recommend it because it will not shed like some shag rugs made with different materials. It came packaged really well and you have to let it "air" out for a few days (it had a strong odor straight out of the bag). The only drawback is that it is not easy to clean if you spill something on it, a regular carpet cleaning machine will not work. Do not use it in a high traffic area
