Made in 2009. I believe this item is difficult to obtain now. There are no noticeable stains. Please purchase with the understanding that this is an old item stored at home. Due to the brushed material, fiber dust may adhere. If you are concerned, please refrain from purchasing. It will be compressed and shipped via Yu-Packet Post. It will be shipped in simple packaging.
