The carpet is great, however the pile is longer than we thought it would be based off the pictures we could see.  Included are pics that clearly show the pile.  Our carpet off gassed really bad right immediately after we unrolled and vacuumed it.  We left the windows open in the living room all night with a box fan blowing the air out and that took care of most of it.  It was really bad but now is barely noticeable.  As everyone else has said it is super soft.  Way too early to tell how it's going to stand up to two little kids, we shall see...
