We love this rug! It was actually thicker and softer than I expected. I've had my eye on it for awhile but actually initially went with a different one that did not work out at all. This one was much better! As far as then color, there was not as much red or pink as in the photo, more blues, purples and greens which actually worked out better for us. We're using it under the dining table and so far it's been easy to clean up after meals and vacuums well. This is one of the best Wayfair purchases we've made yet!
