A million of people have written about this being on the blue side of grey, so I’ll leave that alone and focus on the bigger concern! Of you can answer “yes” to the following questions, this is the rug for you! 1. Do you love an almost velvet feeling rug? 2. Do you have children who love to lay on a rug that feels like a baby’s minke blanket? 3. Do you love footprints on your rug? 4. Are you friends with Thor, The Incredible Hulk, or Captain Marvel? 5. Are you a member of a professional tug-of-war team, or a bodybuilder who can drag a hippopotamus out of a lake? The last 2 questions are important because vacuuming this rug is INSANELY hard. We have 2 kids and I had to get both of them to stand on one end of the rug & have my husband help pull the Dyson animal vacuum across it. The vacuum wouldn’t turn on the brush because the suction was so strong! It was crazy hard to vacuum. The good news on the vacuuming was that almost no fluff came out of the rug, so it’s nice and tight in the weave & been properly razored or cleaned or whatever they do before it goes to the consumer. Color is pretty, very happy. I just need to hire Thor to vacuum it.
