I was looking for a cheap rug as we are expecting a new puppy in 8 weeks. Translation this rug is likely to urinated on.  I really love the pattern of this rug but it isn't plush and soft, in fact it's kinda rough. It definitely has the most synethtic microfiber which is great for my new puppy but maybe not great if you really want a nice carpet.  I would give this rug a 5 for color and design and 1 for texture and feel. This is definitely not a plush and soft rug.  Wayfair has cute but really cheap furniture which in this case is exactly what I was looking for but does not qualify this carpet for a 5.
