Well, after searching for 3 years for the perfect rug for my space I found this one and fell in love with it. I ordered and received it just fine with no problems. The rug was gorgeous and I have received many compliments on it's uniqueness. It did shed quite a lot at first, and had the typical wool aroma. However, I would vacuum the rug frequently to help cut back on the shedding, and because I have a dog and children. The more I vacuumed the worse it looked. It is to the point now that I have just rolled up a $600 rug and put it away because it does't even look nice anymore. The ribbons that make up the bursts have frayed terribly and it looks horrible. The shedding did stop after about six months, but the ribbons continue to fray away to nothing. I have gone so far as to get down on my hands and knees and "trim" the frays with a scissors. It is beyond me why anyone would ever make a rug that for all practical purposed can NOT be vacuumed without being damaged. I am so disappointed, and rugless once again. Also after about a year the rug developed a "musty" aroma that I have not been able to get rid of. If you have a very low traffic area, don't mind the shedding, and never plan on vacuuming then I guess this is the rug for you. But I guess it just doesn't belong in the home of a mother of children and a dog.

When I received this area rug, I couldn't be happier. It looked beautiful and fit the room perfectly. While the rug had a lot of shedding, I didn't mind knowing eventually it would stop. I have the rug just about 8 months, and am miserable with it. While the rug looks clean and has held up, the SUNBURSTS have major 'bald' spots. Whenever I vacuum this rug, the longer sunburst yarns get caught in the vacuum or just start coming out. This is not a heavily walked on area rug, and I am disgusted with it. I contacted Overstock about doing an exchange because I just love the look, and because this area rug is 8 months old, they will not consider an exchange. I am deeply disappointed that they won't stand behind this product. My vacuum is set on the 'tallest' setting, it's very very frustrating. BEWARE if you purchase this area rug.

I was worried after I ordered this rug and especially after it arrived as it was big and bold. But after I placed it and people began to see the rug I relaxed. I've had the best compliments!! It has held together very well, I haven't really had any shedding even with using the vacuum cleaner on it. My cats also love the texture of the flower bursts.

great quality-feels soft to walk on-delivered in 5 days-color is perfect (just as described) it was the final touch for my room

I am so pleased with this rug. It is so pretty and a definite asset to my living room. I have received nothing but compliements on it.

Although the first rug sent was the wrong size (correct rug, wrong size), Overstock remedied the situation quickly. I did find it difficult to communicate easily with staff at Overstock, but ultimately they got the job done and quickly. My only concern now is how long they are taking to acknowledge receipt of the returned rug (UPS confirmed it's been received, but Overstock hasn't). Those are my issues. The rug itself is great and I am very pleased. It is very true to the picture and it is good quality. I haven't noticed much of the shedding of the rug that others have commented on. I would recommend this rug.

This rug arrived and its beautiful!There is only one problem......it sheds. But I keep vaccuuming it in hopes that this will soon stop. It really is gorgeous. We get lots of compliments.

This rug is very well made and beautiful to boot. The colors show up very similar to the picture, the off-white may be a bit more white than I was expecting. It looks gorgeous in my livingroom. The design really stands out but isn't over the top.

I found the service excellent. I received the rug within 3 days of purchase. I have gotten many compliments on the appearance of the rug. It vacuums easily. I have really enjoyed it.

just recieved my rug yesterday . It is beautifull ! ! ! It is a great bargain . I have really seen it for twice the price. The picture is accurate ,but there is just no way to see its true beauty in a photo . I love it and it looks just the way I wanted for my formal dining room . Thank you overstock !

This is truly a work of art and is reflected in its obvious hand made qualities. Everyone who has seen this rug has to make a comment and I might add they're all positive. Rug cleans up after spills with Oxy Clean and a scrub brush. Almost everyone is afraid to walk on it for fear they'll do it damage. Would certainly recommend this rug to anyone who has an eye for beauty and appreciates the aesthetics it lends to any room. This rug is HEAVY wool and cotton and does shed. But shedding is expected with wool rugs so bear this in mind when purchasing. Because its hand made it has some flaws if scrutinized with the same eye as you might judge a machine made carpet, however this only lends itself to the beauty of the rug and the ambiance it brings to your home decor. Would definitely recommend this rug to anyone who appreciates the finer things in life.

We just layed this carpet last week. It is as good looking as the picture online. The rug is heavy and thick and made from wool. The label says it is made in India without using child labor. The patterns on the surface are what are called 'hand tufted". Those tufts have a tendency to pull out when the rug is new. We are hoping it quits after a while. It causes little wool puffs to form on the rug that need to be picked up. We haven't vacuumed the rug so I can't comment on whether the vacuum will pull out more fibers from the tufts. If it were not for that problem I would have rated the carpet 5 stars all around. If the problem doesn't go away I will try to add that information. That will take weeks to know.

I recently purchased this rug and absolutely love it. The burst patterns are raised above the rest of the rug which gives it a wonderful texture and feels great under your feet. Everyone that has seen it loves it.

I love this rug. REALLY! It's thick, plush and has wonderful texture. I haven't had any issue with pilling or shedding. Although it's beige the contrast with the dark brown and golden beige starbursts are just enough to keep it from looking too beige. I've purchased 4 rugs from Overstock and have yet to be disappointed.

Loved the rug. I have been looking for one this size for a long time. The price was right. It's very plush, too. Shipped very quickly.

I love my rug..I have it in the bedroom and it adds pazazz and comfort. I love the raised surface, the colors, just about everything. I would recommend using a slip resistant pad underneath. I would definately purchase similar ones for my entire home, but did not want to be boring. You will enjoy this purchase.:)

It looks wonderful in my living room....just what I've been looking for for over 2 years! Very happy with the price and the discounted shipping, seeing as though this rug weighed over 75 pounds! Thanks Overstock.com!!!

Someone from a carpet store was at my home doing measurements and noticed the rug - which had just arrived. They commented on how beautiful it was and the quality of the workmanship. While I purchased the rug for one room, it ended up in the dining room under the table. The raised starbursts give the room excitement and the carpet itself feels very comfortable. I'm very satisfied. Thanks, Overstock!

I have to send a review on this beautiful rug. I almost bought it at a large dept store. It was almost three times the amount as overstock. It is a gorgeous rug. It is very plush and makes the room I put it in very inviting. The reason I didn't give it five stars is if you like to lay on your rugs, it leaves tiny specks of carpet on your clothes, other than that it is a excellent buy.

I purchased the beige rug and could not be happier. It gives my contemporary living room that extra pazazz! After ordering this rug from overstock, I saw it featured on a design show, and I could not wait to get mine. The Sunbursts are shaggier and stick up higher than the rest of the rug. I love the texture, look and feel and the colors are so neutral that it's easy to put any color with it. Thank you overstock . Your price was far less than others. I will definitely shop with you again real soon!
