So far I love this rug. Not sure how much it may shed but I immediately unwrapped it and vacuumed it. Awesome quality. It works well in my room. I have another Charlton Home® rug with similar colors in the same room…on each side of my bed and they compliment each other well. The Charlton Home® rug on the right side with the rust color is 8 years old and still looks new. I love this brand and now need one for my office area and a runner for the hall. The colors are deep and the tans and browns are as it is shown online. It also has an olive greenish color in it.

Perfect!
