How long do new rugs shed for?
we bought one from pottery barn over 6 months ago and it is still shedding all over the place. I can't sit or kneel on my rug with dark clothes on or I end up looking like a lint trap.
I know rugs sometimes shed for the first few vaccuumings, but this is getting ridiculous!
Is this normal? If not, where can I find a rug that won't shed like this? I'm sick of the lint bunnies everywhere.

rugs shouldn't shed. I would return it.

My wool rug still sheds and I have had it for months now. Some just do. It depends on the material of the rug.

I've had my wool rug for eight years and it still sheds! Next time I am not getting wool.

I bought a wool rug for my living room about 3 months ago and it still sheds. Apparently its normal!! My vacuum doesn't think so, neither does my son who is often covered in that crap...but I can just lint roll him and he is fine!
