This was the perfect choice for covering up some worn out carpet in a rental house. It sits well on top of carpet and stays flar. It's comfortable under bare feet and easy to keep clean. It loses a few points because the fading pattern is a bit too obvious with some banding, rather than a more natural fade but not to the point where I didn't want to use it. Once it was set under furniture it wasn't quite as obvious as when looking at the rug as a whole.
