love this rug
so going into buying this rug i knew there were a ton of bad reviews but i wanted it anyways because i love the look of it. and let me say it does shed a lot but in my opinion i think its so worth it!! i dont care if i have to vacuum extra because i already have a white dog, but it is SO pretty, makes your house feel more cozy, and is soft to walk on!! the color is perfect, i was scared it would have a yellow undertone but it doesn’t at all. i definitely recommend

Do not buy this horrible rug!!
I am not sure how this rug got to 4 stars. It should be 000000, seriously. I refuse to give this rug a comfort or softness rating when this is BY FAR the worst purchase I have ever made in my life. It looks great and soft until you roll it out and it SHEDS more than any animal you will ever own! I have never seen anything like it. It doesn’t matter how much you vacuum, the rug clumps and thousands of individual hairs are everywhere!! clothes, people, tables, furniture. It’s horrible! Do yourself a favor and find anything else, trust me!

Sheds and makes fuzz balls. Your pets will choke on the fuzz!
This is a beautiful product. But unfortunately I cannot use it. It sheds so much. Makes fuzz balls that my little dog had chocked and started coughing. She had a hard time to get the stuff out. I vacuumed and every ten seconds my Dyson will be full and need to be dumped. I’m so disappointed because it is beautiful. Doesn’t smell. Great thickness. But it’s not worth injuring my dog or cleaning up fuzz from clothes and floor!

Rug Review.
Well made, good quality. Received it in June. Love the color against my wood floors! If you want a high-end look, this is a great choice. This rug does shed, keep your dustbuster handy. This is not a high traffic rug!!!! It's very soft on both sides; excellent for hardwood floors. We put felt padding underneath for cushion. I do see a possible problem with cleaning....it is a yarn material therfore, spot cleaning probably won't do it justice. I don't know that for certain though. We liked this area carpet so much that we bought another, same size for the master and a 2'6" x 8' runner. Good value for the money for now. We'll have to see how it holds up month to month.

Better in theory
I purchased this rug in 2023. It was very pretty at purchase and was the correct size for my room. Unfortunately, one corner came unraveled immediately. And it is not soft to walk on; it feels like walking on little needles. Three years later, the weave is flattened, stringy like a cheap sweater, and stained in minimal traffic areas with no real way to clean it.

Absolutely Exquisite
This rug is better than pictured. If you like the look of high-end retail wool rugs that are very expensive, you will love this one. The quality is the same and the overall look is better in my opinion. I love this rug so much, I can't stop looking at it. It is exactly what I was looking for and I'm glad I didn't splurge on more expensive options. I may order another for my living room too. The quality is great and hasn't shed. As soon as I laid it down there were no wrinkles or lifting.

Super cute rug with nice pattern.
So I ordered the rug to have a nice simple white rug that will go with any furniture or decor I have. When I unwrapped the package, I thought that it was smaller than it was going to be, but I did measure it, and the dimensions were correct. Being a round rug, it covers less space than a rectangle or square rug like I usually get. But it is nice quality. I vacuumed it right away when I received it and a lot of fuzz came up so now it’s not shedding because I vacuumed it right away. It’s soft and comfy. It flattened out pretty much right away. I like it!

Bright, rich, chunky rug
I can not speak more about this rug. The shedding is a pain, however I used my handheld vacuum wand and vacuumed the back side very thoroughly AND used a fabric shaver on the front. Doing both of those have eliminated white fluffy on my pants significantly. As for now (6hrs) post delivery I’m not seeing shedding. Regardless of the shredding, this rug warms up my hard floors and to me; provides a warm and inviting sitting area. I love the feel and thickness of this rug. I was going to use a rug pad, however, I ended up returning it as it didn’t seem necessary. Over all this rug was a total score not only by looks but by price as well.

Was suppose to be oval but arrived as rectangular-very disappointed as the rug itself is fantastic quality.

I received this rug at the end of August 2021 and the wool is already coming away from the backing in several places similar to the photo above. The rug doesn’t receive heavy traffic at all (no pets or little kids) and I have followed the manufacturers vacuuming and cleaning instructions. I’d look elsewhere I think.

TikTok made me buy it! I saw this rug trending and decided to give it a shot. At first, it looked exactly as described and was super aesthetically pleasing in the room I bought it for. I got it in the light grey color, though some of my family said it looked more brownish—so heads up on that. Based on the reviews, I expected shedding, and wow, did it shed A LOT. Luckily, that slowed down after about two months. But then, it started piling instead, which made it look old and worn out even though it’s in a low-traffic area. That was really disappointing. If I could go back, I wouldn’t purchase this rug and would spend my money on something that holds up better over time.

Although the picture seems to have a dark navy blue to it, ours doesn't seem to have any dark navy blue on it. We still like the color pattern though. There were a few spots where the stitching is not good quality, but it's barely noticeable because of the texture and color pattern. The part that annoys us the most is the constant shedding of white fibers. We hope that the shedding will lessen over time, but we're still dealing with white fluff all the time. I guess it forces us to vacuum more often, which can be a good thing. 8 month update: I thought I would chime in to say that the shedding has slowed down a lot and I notice a lot less wool fibers around the house.

Sheds a lot and have to be careful of debris and dirt not getting caught in the woven areas. I’ve had to vacuum it on low otherwise all of the wool gets stuck in the vacuum filter and clogs.
