I really love the look and that this rug is safe for my baby ... but after 6 months I'm giving up and buying something else - it SHEDS SO MUCH!! Specifically, it sheds more on my black dog than he sheds on the rug, it fills the Dyson vacuum in <5 minutes EVERY time it has ever been vacuumed and shows no signs of slowing down, don't even think about walking in the room wearing black leggings, and my baby gets wool fluff in her mouth and eyes any time I set her down on the rug.
I understand that shedding is part of life with shag wool, but this is the most-high maintenance rug I have ever encountered. It might be nice for a guest room, but it just isn't suited for a space where you will ever sit/play on the floor.
Hi Kristen,
Thank you so much for giving us feedback on this rug. I am extremely concerned that your baby is ingesting wool fibres from the rug. We typically do not recommend a wool rug for children under the age of 3 for this specific reason.
Have you tried giving the rug a wash in the washing machine? That should help alleviate most of the shedding.
I do understand that this rug was quite an investment for you and I am committed to you having a floor solution for your child. Is it okay for me to reach out to you today to see if we can offer you an alternative that would be better suited for your child?
Please do let me know.

Lorena Canals Atlas Vintage Blue Machine Washable Area Rug
Can’t express enough delight as we received the rings for baby’s nursery. The quality and customer service are both unmatched! Super soft and shaggy while nontoxic for baby - it’s all in the details and these rugs are perfect! And the fact the rugs can be machine washed is everything. Nursery is coming together!
Nice quality and stylish brand, it is a win-win for this pillow. Excellent customer service, as well, another win.
Great experience ordering from this company!
