Great rug
September 1, 2011
Love the rug and it works well with all her other PB Teen items. What I love about the color options is that even though we bought new bedding to replace her old PB teen quilt ....we were able to use the old quilt (folded at bottom of bed) along with the new comforter and this rug and they all match. It is also the same blue as her phone and lamp. They update their items but keep some of the same colors such as pool, blue etc and you can get new items and switch out / update and still match. Rug is great - real thick - good quality!

Overpiced & Poor Customer Service
August 16, 2011
Product is fine. Customer service very poor. Received an email offering a discount for a classroom purchase...10%...and then, after we ordered it and it shipped, they said they could not offer the discount. Very disappointing and my school or family will not be purchasing anything from a PB store in the future. My only hope is that the quality stands up to the price and saying, "you get what you pay for".

I purchased the black w white dots rug for my daughter, and the pool blue w white for my other daughter. Both rugs are VERY thick and plush. We all love how soft it is to walk on with bare feet!

I love this rug! I was going to buy it for my daughter, but after I walked across it, and felt how soft it was, it's mine now!

What a mess!
May 21, 2011
The color of this rug was stated as "soft black". It really resembled a brownish black color rather than a true black. It looked a little anemic. We also had such a shedding problem that we have rolled up the rug and are not even using it. Our rug was placed on top of light beige carpet. The black fuzz and yarn pieces became such a problem that we would find it stuck to our socks and tracked all the way out into the hallway carpet. My daughter had to vacuum her room every day in order to keep the "fuzz monsters" from getting all over the house. We have had the rug for almost 10 months and have given it a chance to redeem itself...we hoped the shedding would stop...but it never did. I guess if it was placed somewhere where it would never get any foot traffic or used as a wall hanging it might be OK. We are used to rugs being practical and useable.

Lovely Rug
March 14, 2011
I bought this rug for my daughters room and she is very happy with it. However, it is shedding a little bit and I am hoping it might be because it is new so it should stop. It is a very pretty rug and looks great in her newly redecorated room!

Beautiful Rug
March 8, 2011
I ordered this rug after we painted our daughters' room based on the blue in the blue/green dottie quilt and the rug matched perfectly. The rug is very thick and the color is beautiful. We have a bunk bed on it with drawers under the bed - the shag is not helpful in opening the drawers for younger kids but these won't store everyday use items anyway. So far we love it!

Fun Rug
February 13, 2011
I ordered the multi color rug, and it was a much creamier color than what is pictured online. I has grown on me, but definitely does not match my child's white furniture. It also sheds a lot. Not as annoying as a darker color shedding, but it does still shed a lot.

Do not buy this product!
February 7, 2011
I got this for my birthday. I was sooooo excited. My mom read the reviews and decided it was good enough. Some people got lucky and no shedding occurred. So my mom bought it. At first, I L-O-V-E-D it. It was perfect because it matched my bedding, sheets and was super soft and comfy. Then, within 1 week, the shedding happened. It wasn't so bad that my Mom couldn't handle it. A vacuum and it was all good. Then probably the next month it was getting on my bed, on my clothes, in my hair--everywhere. My brother found a piece in his FOOD. My mom threw it away, but it was too late because it had spread everywhere in the house and she had to clean the house for 2 weeks to get all the rug shedding off. I was so happy the rug was gone and I wish I would've listened to the reviews! Please, don't waste your money. I did chores everyday and got 1 dollar each day. It took me forever to get the money and It was a total waste. Listen to the reviews and DON'T BUY.

Sheds, but very nice rug
January 22, 2011
The rug does shed, but it is worth it. It is very well made, as most of Pottery Barn's stuff seems to be, looks wonderful in my daughter's room, and she loves it.

Beautiful!
January 12, 2011
The rug arrived today in purple and my 7yr old daughter is in love. It is very very soft and cushy. I can see that it is going to shed, but the other wool rugs in our home shed also so we are just planning to vacuum more often. The color is stunning and we are happy with our purchase.

Great Rug!
January 9, 2011
I bought this rug almost a year ago and put it by my bathroom sink. It works very well, it is still soft to this day and stays warm and fuzzy. It sheds a little bit, but nothing a vaccum or picking up with your hand can't fix. I also get many compliments on how cute the rug is, everyone loves it! Overall, wonderful rug and definately worth the money!

Not the best quality but very soft
January 3, 2011
Unfortunately, I read the reviews regarding this rug after I ordered it. I don't have a big problem with lint; rather, entire yarn pieces keep coming out of the rug. Even my 12 year old daughter (who loves the rug) commented that "Maybe we should see if any bald spots turn up and take it back." It's been a week and no bald spots yet, but it is not in a high traffic area. The price was economical compared to wool rugs, but you'll get what you pay for - if that.

Love the texture of rug
December 29, 2010
I ordered this rug for my daughters room.
I love it even more in person than online. The texture of the rug is great and goes well with her nouveau floral duvet cover. the rug is much thicker and softer than I thought it would be. I dont notice the rug shedding and we had it for several months now.

big mistake
December 22, 2010
okay, so i've had this rug for 1 yr now. when i first got it, it was fluffy, beautiful, and magical. i loved it. maybe 2 weeks later it started shedding a little bit, but it was okay. just little fluff balls. then it started shedding bigger fluff balls, then little pieces of yarn. i soon realized that the only thing making it soft were those little fluff balls that left me in the beginning. The more you lay down on it, the more matted it gets. if you vacuum it, the less matts, but it takes away more fluff, making it less soft, and less enjoyable. I should've returned it long ago. big mistake.

too fuzzy
December 6, 2010
Rug is way to fuzzy and shedding never stops. Causes dust bunnies throughout the house and all over black clothing. Vacuuming is really difficult. I am throwing it out. Do not buy even if your child begs you (mine did).

Very soft rug
December 2, 2010
My daughter loves this rug. It's very soft and not at all itchy. The shedding that other people have posted about can be a problem. I vacuumed the rug every day for a week and that seemed to eliminate the majority of the shedding. It's still shedding some, but it's manageable.

Very soft!!!
October 25, 2010
I had been looking for a rug to go in my daughter's room. She has the graphic pop quilt. I read the reviews so I wasn't going to buy it because of the bad reviews about shedding but she really liked it so I thought I'd try. She LOVES it! Loves to lay on the floor to read, do her homework and listen to music because it is so soft. I haven't noticed all the shedding people have mentioned. We bought the 5 X 8 and you do get a few loose threads, but nothing too crazy.

Poor choice
September 27, 2010
I recently remodeled my daughter's entire room completely furnishing and decorating with Pottery Barn. This is the only item that I regret buying from Pottery Barn. I have followed the care instructions to a "T" and yet continue to have problems with the shedding. I do not use the beater bar on my vacuum but that only creates more shedding. I resort to sitting on the floor picking up balls of carpet. The rug looks and feels great. It is too bad that it is more trouble than it is worth. I wouldn't even give it 1 star.
