I have navy blue couches and was looking for a rug to make my living room "coastal". The colors on this rug are so lovely, they brighten the room and I like the look. The issue is this rug "sheds" like crazyyyy, everyday there is shedding all over the place in corners of the room, I have to vacuum all the time. If I put my feet on the rug then up on the couch it gets rug particles on the couch. Another downside is it has taken a month to flatten out, it's not totally flattened out, still has "bumps" but has gotten better.
