This was purchased for our nursery and wanted something that would work for several years.  The colors in this rug are beautiful.  It appears to be well made.  It's not as soft as I like, but it is comfortable to sit/play on.  It is not a thin carpet and appears to be durable.  Everyone who has come into her room compliments the rug!  Should be a nice addition to my daughters room for years to come :)
