Great rug, soft, strong and beautiful!!!
Original review at bottom.. updaTed review follows:::I purchased this rug about 9 months ago. I only came back to this order because of a comment I received. But I feel obligated to inform anyone interested in making this purchase.. best rug ever . Period .I stand behind everything I said in my initial review 9 months ago. However I wrote that review just a week after receiving it and laying it out. There's a lot I've learned about it since.As you can see in the pictures we have a dog in our home. We also have a bunny who roams the main living space and a 5 yr old. The bunny is litter trained but there's always a trail of hay leading to his cage lol The dog obviously tracks in mud and who knows what else, and the 5 yr old is a typical 5 yr old who spills something on it pretty much daily. Not to mention both of said 5 yr old's parents are a bit on the clumsy side ;) This rug is not exactly what I would call pampered. My point is this... the rug is still beautiful. I vacuum and clean up after spills of course, but the fibers of the rug are like stain resistant I think. I'll see the little one spill a whole drink and the liquid will sit on top of the carpet, instead of sinking in.. so if you move quickly you can prevent any and all damage. That extra bit of time is a luxury that anyone with young kids could appreciate. Also, the dog sheds. Like the liquid, the dog fur will sit on top instead of smushing in between the carpet.. it makes vacuuming a total breeze. I give it a once-over each week.Anyhow, the rug is wonderful and soft and my family has had many wonderful moments sitting on it playing board games and having movie night :) The bright colors really wake up the room and I am so happy I went with this one in the end.. (and I must have looked through 200 rugs lol) This one is a winner!Original review:I was reallly nervous about ordering this. I have seen this rug listed by different sellers but purchased mine from uniqueloom. Its an expensive purchase and i was worried about the colors being off, of the rug being of poor quality... So not the case here!This area rug is perfect! The colors are amazing, the fibers are so soft... I've had wood floors for a long time but could never decide on a rug. This one has the blues and greens I have in my living room, but also has pink, maroon, yellow, gold, orange... it looks different up close verse further away.. Either way it's bright and vibrant. Everyone who comes into our house mentions the rug being beautiful. And I actually forgot what it felt like to walk around barefoot on a carpet.. doing it on this one is seriously like a dream.Also we have ours in a pretty high traffic area..the dog likes it too... I thought her claws would be a problem, but they haven't pulled a single thread. In the passed I've ordered less expensive ones for the hall and they always look horrible in just a matter of days. Not this one. This one is strongly bonded and well made. No soot-like, rug dust left behind here either (which I've read in reviews)I am so pleased with this purchase! I definitely recommend this area rug, from this company. I'm uploading some photos so you can see. The colors look slightly different depending on sun or shade, flash, etc... but you'll get the idea.
