This is such a beautiful rug! Its very well made and layed flat right out of the box. This rug is also not a bright white, its more of a creamy, off white. We purchased the 8x10 for our daughters bedroom and our two dogs like to sleep in her room, we havent had any issues with the pet hair, etc. But this rug looks and feels durable enough to withstand any vacuuming or even a spot scrub if the time comes. Five stars!
