Love this rug!
This rug is a winner! It is well constructed and has a lot of cushion. The color is very sophisticated and elevates the room.

Durability for the price is terrible
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The wool is already coming out in spots and this rug was a lot of money. I’m not happy about it.

Nicer and higher quality than I expected.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We were looking for a rug that would make our fireplace area feel warmer and more inviting. Because this rug is mostly wool, its natural fire resistance made it an excellent choice for a hearth-adjacent space. I initially assumed that this added peace of mind would come at the expense of comfort — but I couldn’t have been more wrong!The rug has a thick, substantial weave made from wonderfully soft wool, a super durable backing, and it feels great underfoot. We paired it with a 1⁄4” felt rug pad, which made it comfortable enough for lounging on the floor or spending time playing with our grandchildren. It strikes a perfect balance between safety, comfort, and style.

Rug wears poorly
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Rug sheds and wears poorly. Deep holes within loops collects dirt and impossible to clean.

This wall would be great in an Afghan, but not suitable for a carpet
(This review was collected as part of a promotion.) There were way too many gaps. The dirt would never get vacuumed up.

Shedding
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It’s been 2 weeks by the rug continues to shed white ***** and they are all over my house. So sad. It wouldn’t recommend it.

sheds like crazy
(This review was collected as part of a promotion.) the rug looks nice and is thick and plush, the wool isn't very soft, it's a little scratchy, but the worst part is how much it sheds, it feels like we have a shedding dog in our house because it gets all over your clothes, furniture and ***** up and gets spread around your house. we vacuum it 2-3 times a day, have had it for a few weeks now and still sheds constantly

Nice feel, colour as pictured
(This review was collected as part of a promotion.) Knitting a bit loose with some pieces of hard fibers (wood?) at places. Overall very satisfied

Softest knit wool rug
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Although the rug is pretty, the practicality of this material being a rug is not so great. It is just like a wool sweater as you wear it it piles, this will not stop, shedding, no matter how many times I vacuum, and don’t even think to come near it with any black garments on.

Exactly what I was looking for
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This rug is beautiful in my bedroom. The color is exactly what I was looking for. My home is decorated in a coastal style with soft neutral colors and this rug fits right in. Very happy with it.

Looks great but not as soft as expected
The rug is not particularly soft, and the braided texture is so pronounced and bumpy that it's even a little uncomfortable to walk on. This is for a bedroom and mostly under furniture, so that's okay, but I'm a little disappointed that it doesn't feel cozy underfoot.

Softest wool rug
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Definitely the SOFTEST rug ever!... feels so good to walk on it!As with all wool rugs, it needs to be vacuumed once a week or there will be shedding. I’m very pleased with my purchase!

Gorgeous, but the shedding never ends.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This rug is so pretty, the cream color and braided pattern is everything. BUT, i’m giving it 3 stars because it sheds SO much!! The instructions advise you not to vacuum with a beater brush, but you definitely have to vacuum it, otherwise, you walk onto the rug with black socks, and walk off the rug covered in white fibers. I would not put this rug in a nursery, or anywhere a child would crawl. They’ll get too much wool fuzz in their mouth. Thankfully, this rug is in my office. Won’t be spending too much time on the floor in there.

Soft and Cozy
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love this rug! It’s exactly what I wanted to make my bedroom feel cozy. It’s soft yet seems durable so far. I haven’t experienced any shedding. I didn’t use a pad and it doesn’t seem to need it.
