I had decided to use a burlap tablecloth for the holidays this year. After reading reviews on many I begin worrying about the stability of burlap. The last thing I wanted was it falling apart during all the holiday activities. After a great deal of searching I found this one. I am very pleased with this product. It has withstood Thanksgiving and half way to Christmas and I've only had to cut one thread that was coming off at the corner. Cut it and it's perfect again. I've had no issues with it and it looks great on our table. I have received many compliments on it. If you're looking for a high quality burlap tablecloth- this is it. It did take a couple of weeks to get here - that's the only downside. I wish it was either prime shipping or a faster shipping. But I'm glad I purchased it. By the way, our table is a 48x48 and this works beautifully.
