Bridget Floral Rug from Pottery Barn

This graphic wool rug is an updated look for Pottery Barn. Would such a highly-stylized floral pattern have made it to the retailer if it wasn't for the popularity of the similarly-stylized patterns of Angela Adams and Jonathan Adler? The Bridget Rug from Pottery Barn is a looped wool pile with a cotton backing...

Does anyone have this already? i've been eyeing it since the last cataloug arrived.

I have a small dog too so clean-up is a concern.

It looks nice but a bit "thin". Does anyone have it, and can describe what it feels like on the feet. Thanks.

I don't think I'll ever buy another Pottery Barn rug. I bought one of their Henley rugs and after a couple of months, I rolled it up and put it away. It's going in my next yard sale.

I loved the look of the rug, but could NOT stand the shedding! I had to vacuum every single day to keep the shedding under control. Otherwise I had dark red fuzz everywhere. I thought it would settle down after a couple of weeks, but it never did.

Ditto the fuzz problem with Pottery Barn Rugs (in general, not this one in particular). Plus, mine faded like crazy -- it was like the color was evaporating. I kept the rug for two years. Not sure what I expected for $250, but I got a temporary rug. Now I am a firm believer in quality rugs (with the RugMark seal!) even if I have to save for a while -- it's better than replacing every few years and having rug-fuzzballs chase me around the house.

I ordered one of these (in blue) a few weeks ago. It is not available for shipping until mid-July. Good to see these comments. I might have to re-think the purchase.
