I adore this rug, we have it in our master bedroom. It's the perfect blend of exotic, intricate, and interesting without being distracting. It's very soft and comfortable to walk on, my husband and I could not stop lamenting of the fact that it took so long to put a rug in our bedroom. I'm so glad we ended up with this one. Definitely recommend a 3/8"-1/2" pad underneath for extra comfy effect.
