Comfortable rug with a beautiful, neutral pattern.We paired it with a 1/4" felt rug pad with rubber backing and it is very soft and comfortable. You definitely need a rug pad.Of course it sheds a lot in the beginning as it is wool. I sent the robot vacuum in once or twice a day for the first week and it stopped shedding by then.I've been buying wool Savafieh rugs for years and have them all over the house. They are affordable and really look beautiful.. This was actually a replacement for one in the same space that we had for over a decade and only replaced due to staining (our fault).
