I had a really hard time finding the perfect (affordable) rug for our gender-neutral nursery. Other moms advised getting an indoor/outdoor rug that can be totally washed. The fibers in this rug upon close examination appear to be kind of like a plastic material - can be totally hosed down and will dry quickly - but the rug remains soft. It is more of a mat - very flat, but does what we wanted, adding colour to the room and covering our floors that aren't in great shape. If you wanted it to be cushiony you'd need to add a rug pad underneath. The colours are true to the picture. I am totally in love with this rug!

Pros: durable finish, washable, still very suitable for indoor
Cons: would need to add rug pad if you wanted cushion
