This is not a thick rug, however, it feels very soft and has a plushness to it that I was not expecting. It is also very easy to vacuum and looks exactly as advertised. This rug came well packaged too. I use it in my guest bedroom and it looks and feels great. I recommend the Loloi II - Loloi II Layla, OCEAN / MULTI Area Rug as it isn't a thick rug but still provides a level of plushness that you wouldn't expect and it also has a very beautiful design and feels great to walk on.
