SAFAVIEH Natural Fiber Collection 7' Square Green & Grey NF730B Handmade Jute Area Rug - Farmhouse Style, Eco-Friendly Floor Covering for Living Room, Bedroom or Dining Area

Received on 5/21/24: We bought the green/gray in the 7’ square size. UPS delivered the roll basically folded in half (another story), so I was worried about creasing or stretching. It was nicely protected in heavy plastic and tied with twine as well as plastic wrapping. I placed it where I wanted it, cut the ties off and rolled it out. Amazingly, the corners were immediately flat, there were no fold marks or creases, and it is perfectly square. There’s no noticeable odor. It is thick but not necessarily soft, although not uncomfortable. The color is definitely more green than gray, but it’s a soft sage color with slight variations due to the natural fibers. With a heavy table and chairs holding it in place, there was no need for any under padding. Depending on whether the corners stay put, I may consider 4 corner pieces for underneath. It seems very high quality and will hopefully last for a long time, so I’m happy with my purchase and recommend.Update 7/13/24: After a couple of months, I’ve noticed more imperfections. Where 1 dining chair is used more than the others, there is some unraveling of the fibers and lumpy areas. The chairs don’t slide over the rug and must be lifted, so the wear must be from feet?? which seems odd. Also at that area, the edge/corner has seemed to expand making it asymmetric. Although we like the appearance, I have a feeling we won’t be using this rug very long and am disappointed to have a disposable rug. I’ve removed a star for these reasons
