Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I've had this rug for 2 months now and let me just say WOW! A little perspective: Our household is made up of 4 kids (ages 18-3 years old), a black lab, a LARGE Great Dane pupper, and a cat. This rug was placed in the center of our living room, where we spend the majority of our time. Within the first week, it had a grape juice spill, play doh shredded on it, a 120 pound Dane pupper pee on it (TWICE!), a stomach virus hitting our 3 & 5 year olds (think lots of 🤮🤮), and our cat trying to use it as a scratching post. That's not even taking into account all the heavy foot traffic (and paw traffic; our Dane pupper is HUUUGE, with big, thick nails and this rug triggers his zoomies!!) This rug looks just the same as it did the day it arrived!! I've rubbed, scrubbed, vacuumed, or shampooed this rug everyday for one reason or another and it has far exceeded my expectations! *Liquids (even staining colors like red or purple) come right up with very little effort and have yet to actually stain the rug. Not only is the pattern extremely forgiving, but it's like it's been sprayed with Scotchgard. *This rug is TOUGH! I NEVER imagined this rug would hold up to the insane zoomies our Dane gets, but it's not even had a single snag! *The pile is short but that's exactly what we needed because it makes for easier cleaning. And yes, it is extremely comfortable/soft to lay on! *There have been some comments about a chemical smell but ours only smelled "new." I have an extremely sensitive sniffer due to a medical condition and it didn't bother me at ALL and it was gone very quickly. *After laying it out, it laid perfectly flat within 30 minutes. I searched for months for the perfect rug and I'm so glad I chose this one. It is absolutely worth every penny. If you're on the fence, just buy it. You won't be sorry!!
