Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

First, I read all the reviews and took into account people’s issues. Lots of comments about a weird square and how the carpet won’t lay flat and how it stinks super bad and the measurements were not correctly listed. Some said they had terrible stains or poor dye quality or it didn’t match the color from the the pictures shown in the listing. Second I bought it anyway... it’s a $35 rug!!! I bought the grey 5x7 rug (rarely are rugs ever the exact measurement listed, mine was 6’11”, with the ripples flattened as best I could so there could be the extra inch once it fully relaxes with the width being 5’2”). The grey was exactly what I imagined. The weird square was the plastic wrap and vacuuming took care of it, it ran the length of the carpet. The inconsistant colors i see are like those new fad “mermaid pillows” or any carpet that has varying shades based on the direction of the knap. The carpet was tightly curled, I did have to place heavy things on one end while I vacuumed but again vacuuming took care of relaxing everything quite a bit and I’ve had it (from Porch to review about 20 min). The smell? It smells like the new carpet chemical smell. A lil baking soda and/or fabreeze should do it, if I get bothered by it, which I’m not. It’s going into a nursery, so I’m paying attention. Also keep in mind the one I got was like $35! That’s super inexpensive! Really the last nursery rug I got was $100 from target and had a rocker sitting in it with very little traffic, and looks like junk now. I’m tempted to get another to replace the more expensive one. This thing is a steal. If you spent $35 and expected a wool oriental rug from the actual Orient, to last you a lifetime you’re NUTS. This thing is great!
