Is this rug soft enough for a living room?

Yes. The hand-tufted wool pile is dense and plush, and owners consistently describe it as comfortable underfoot.

Some shedding is normal for new wool rugs. Owners report loose fibers for the first weeks; regular gentle vacuuming reduces it.

How should I clean it?

Vacuum without a beater bar and blot spills right away. For deeper cleaning, use a professional wool-safe cleaner rather than machine washing.

Will a 6' x 9' rug fit my living room?

It suits most living rooms, fitting under a sofa and coffee table with front legs on the rug. Measure your seating area first.

Does it need a rug pad?

A pad is recommended. It adds cushioning, keeps the rug from sliding on hardwood, and helps the wool wear evenly.

Is the pattern true to the photos?

Owners say the grey and cream tones match the listing closely, though colors can look warmer or cooler under different lighting.
