It's a very pretty rug.. the colors are a bit more muted in person but it's still very attractive. The problems I have with it are 1) it sheds.. I expect some shedding, but this is bordering on ridiculous, I'm hoping it will stop or slow down over time.. and 2) it has a bit of a musty smell to it, the backing and glue are very stiff and dried out, which makes me wonder if it'd gotten wet at some point.. With that said, it's inexpensive and I wasn't expecting much.
