Same thing almost happened to me. The backing wasn't the size said to be. Dh laughs at me because when I order something I record on video (past 5 years) after being ripped off in past of merchandise and still having to pay for it. I always measure or check before washing so I can determine shrinkage. the only thing I have had bad shrinkage was an accident with a knit sweater that was thrown into a load of bath linen and washed in hot water. Sick.
