This rug is nice, plush, and soft, but the edges are a little bit frayed somehow. I trimmed off a bunch of little rayon threads around the edges, but they just keep showing up after vacuuming. The wool ones remain sturdy and intact. I do enjoy the feel under my bare feet. I bought it for under my standing desk and it is serving its purpose. FYI: this appears a bit more ribbed than it does in the photo. That's fine with me.
