I am giving this carpet 6 stars because the quality of the product is excellent.  It is soft and with the rug pad, adds the cushioning that I like when it comes to an area rug.  BUT, be aware that if you order the beige color, it will be much lighter than what is seen online; it is almost a light gray with a little beige going through it and that was not the color that I was going for.  However, I contacted Wayfair, sent them photos and they made a small concession on the price as opposed to be sending it back.  It is a lovely item but just know that the beige will not exactly appear as it is on the screen.
