We added a 1/2 in pad and it much better.I was looking for an "antelope" print rug and there aren't that many out there. When I saw this, I wanted to get two of them, one for my office (pictured here, 5 x 8') and another, larger one for my adjoining family room but decided to order the smaller one first, to be sure of the look and quality. I love this rug and just ordered the 8 x 10' for the family room. I had seen this exact same pattern for 3 times the price on a well-known, pricey home furnishings website, and was hoping this would be good quality, and it is. It is of medium thickness, and is soft enough but looks as though it will hold up under daily traffic (I put a thick foam pad underneath). The colors are exactly as pictured. It does ship from overseas, but considering that, the shipping was speedy. Just a few weeks. I am very pleased and can't wait to get the other one. It DOES shed a bit, but that seems to be letting up as time goes on, so far it's not a big deal.I ordered this for baby girls nursery and it’s really yellow. Looks dirty almost. Really disappointed! The pics make it look beige, light gray & white - it’s brown and yellow. Yuck! Now I’m trying to figure out how to repack it to return it. Upside is that it’s very thick and well-made, just uggggly!This rug is FABULOUS! The quality is fantastic. The rug is soft and plush and feels great when I walk on it. It is definitely worth the money. I got the 8 x 10 for my bedroom. It's perfect under a queen sized bed.Love my new rug! Delivered early, nicely packaged. It was rolled up with lots of protection.No shedding so far. No odor whatsoever. Had gotten a felted rug pad so it is nice and cushy. The rug itself is delightful to walk on barefoot. Great value for the money!Enjoying having a wool rug. Placed in bedroom for a modern feel with white accessories.There will be fiber so get out the vacuum but it will stop.Great rug! Very think and feels like great quality. I received many compliments so far and am glad I purchased it.Love this rug, second one I ordered - really chic-looking in my office. Much less expensive than similar ones I’ve seen. One issue tho - it sheds like CRAZY. My other one is shedding too. Really hope that will stop! I’m constantly picking up piles of fuzz. But overall I love the rug(s)
