About a month ago I decided to re-do my dining room and I really needed a rug that would pull the whole room together. This rug is perfect! It is very soft to walk across. I read reviews that said it was thin, but anything thicker would be too thick. The pictures online gave me the impression that the rug was a little darker than it was. In the picture that I am including, the corner of the rug that is brightest is a truer representation of the color in person. As others said, the rug was a little wrinkled when I first laid it out, but it laid flat within a day. It is a very beautiful design and almost a shame that it is covered by furniture but it has really added that pop of color and design that I was looking for.
