Handmade Alexa Neutrals and Textures Damask Blue Wool Rug (8' x 11')

The size and colors were not represented the correct way. I am returning this even though it is difficult and will cost me over $$$ to return.

• How did the color on site compare with the actual product? The color was very far off from the description. The bown was the major color not the blue.
• Please tell us about the quality of the product. Very Good
• How accurate was the on site description of the product? Not very accurate even the size was wrong. tThe rug was an 8 by 10 not the 11. Put that with the problem of the color and you have an upset customer.

This rug is very thick and feels pretty good underfoot, but it is scratchy, not soft. The colors are very pastel, and to me, kind of Easter egg-ish. I was expecting a rug that was more smoky-slate and taupe, but it is actually baby blue and light beige. The colors are very pastel, which didn't work for me. I'm keeping it because it's a big hassle to return, but I am not using it in the living room like I had planned to. I have moved it to the back room of the house where my kids watch TV because I really don't care if it get spills on it. The pastel-blast is just not what I want to see when I enter my house. Aside from the color (which is really just my personal taste and not a problem with the product) this rug sheds A LOT. Much more than any wool rug I've ever had. I kept it in the living room for a month, trying to will myself to like it, and even with constant vacuuming, it still shed like crazy, especially at first. I think the shedding has subsided to a level I can live with, but it still needs to be vacuumed a lot. The shedding was a big problem for me because my sofa is navy blue crushed velvet. I don't have a pet, but this rug made it look like a big white dog had been sleeping on my furniture. Our pant legs would even get coated with fuzz from walking on it. I have seen this rug elsewhere at quadruple the price. Boy, I'd be mad if I'd paid retail! Price is good, comparatively speaking, but the fuzz problem is a little insane.

• How did the color on site compare with the actual product? Looks more pastel in person.
• Please tell us about the quality of the product. Not the greatest...loose fibers, excessive shedding.
• How accurate was the on site description of the product? Pretty accurate, but the color was a bit off.
