5 out of 5 starsGreat quality! Was very kind and communicative through out the whole process even with some production delays. Because of that they made a custom rug just for us. ++++++

4 out of 5 starsThe doormat is great & exactly as I’d hoped. But if you’re looking for a quick turnaround time you’ll be out of luck. I ordered mine on Oct 9 & it only just arrived on Dec 6. When I contacted the shop in early Nov they replied that’ll they were a few wks behind. Luckily i was in no rush but I still would have appreciated a heads up about the delay.

5 out of 5 starsLove love love this! It took a long time but was well worth the wait. Colors are beautiful and I love the authenticity of the rope - and that it was made by hand in Maine:) Very responsive/communicative seller.

5 out of 5 starsLove the beautiful colors in my mat. It looks great and so perfect in Florida. My Scottish Deerhound is scared of it though and jumped over it! :)

4 out of 5 starsThe doormat is just what I wanted—the color is really lovely and the mat feels rugged and sturdy. The 39 inch size fits perfectly under my front door. Alas, the package was shipped to the wrong address. Thankfully, with some legwork, I was able to figure out where the package went, and the owners of that house gave me my package. The seller says this is the first time this has happened, and I have no reason not to believe her.
