### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Holds Up Fine
  

*by A***K on Reviewed in the United States on March 19, 2021*

We bought 2 of these carpets and they both are high quality and much thicker than ordinary carpets; about 3/4 in. thick. I'm glad we weren't dissuaded by the negative reviews because neither carpet is falling apart like several people wrote about in 2017-2019.  Perhaps there was a bad batch a few years ago, but so far after 4 months both carpets are holding up fine and look great. There's no shedding or vanishing starbursts as claimed by others. I may not have bothered to write a review, but when I saw the multiple negative ones on the first page, I thought it right to counteract the negative reviews with our positive experience.

    Don't be fooled by the beauty - it won't exist more than a couple days.
  

*by L***L on Reviewed in the United States on January 13, 2017*

I was so excited when we first opened this, but by the next day the colors of the sunbursts had already begun to look fuzzy and threads were falling out everywhere.  I knew we were taking a chance on the rug's quality because of a few other comments; however, there were so many other positive reviews that I decided to risk it.  As stated on some of the other reviews on here, the sunbursts start  shedding and pulling apart within a day. Hoping these were just lose fibers from manufacturing and shipping, we tried vacuuming it.  The shedding was so bad that it actually clogged our vacuum all the way through the entire hose and jammed every part of the vacuum where fibers could go.  There were no instructions about care, so we treated it delicately.  Unless you will never walk on the rug, plan to clean it using only a soft, damp rag and basically want it just for appearance (even then I would consider roping it off for protection) - the rug is useless.  I wish I hadn't even given it a try because now I have to be disappointed to have found something so beautiful, only to watch it fall apart in front of my eyes, and my husband is grumpy because he has to roll it up, try to fit it back into the bag and heft it up to return.

    Beautiful but it "sheds" daily! Ribbons unravel daily!
  

*by A***A on Reviewed in the United States on September 4, 2017*

Beautiful rug BUT the (ribbons) began to unravel as soon as I took it out of the packaging!!! I've had this rug for over a month now and the "ribbons" come off daily(SEE PICTURES)! I DO NOT have this rug in a "high traffic" area(thank God I don't)!! It's  a disaster to maintain! I sweep it everyday because of the ribbons coming out!! It's beautiful but a headache! I kept it because of how it looks but I don't think it will last much longer!  I was delivered a "round" rug instead of what I ordered (square). Amazon did rectify the situation! If the ribbons didn't fall off daily, I would've given this rug 5 stars!
