I had purchased this rug for my master bedroom about 3 years ago in a smaller size and was very pleased with the colors and quality. We recently redecorated our family room and after spending hours shopping online for the perfect rug, I decided to use the same Anatolia rug. My only disappointment is that the ivory areas on this particular rug are a little more gold than my other one. And of course as others have stated, it is shedding pretty heavily right now but I expect that to decrease over the next few weeks. It's a very pretty rug, nice and thick and a great price. I am happy with my purchase.
