I purchased the 2 X 3, 5 X 8 and 8 X 10 Safavieh Handmade Jardine Foilage Beige/Multi Wool Rugs over 2 years and 3 moves ago. I purchased the Supreme Felted Dual Surface Rug Pad for the 2 larger rugs and the Xavier Rug Pad for the 2 X 3 rug (more traffic- used at entrance). Some reviews said the rug shed in the first month. Honestly, I wouldn't have noticed it if I hadn't read the reviews in advance. The rugs are thick, luxurious, sturdy, and very well-made. The pile measurements are accurate and weave is close. These rugs will last forever. I've had them for two years in high traffic areas (living room and dining room) and only now am I just considering having them cleaned. The rug is dirt resistant. Because of the floral pattern they hide dirt very well. Colors are true to description, muted not bright. Measurements accurate. Highly recommend.
