Purchased this rug to place under their arm chair. Very modern design, soft rug, which also matches decor in the office. Exactly as pictured, no surprises (I have had a horrible color surprise in the past with another item). Does need to have items placed on it to flatten it out after opening, but only for a few days. It is a little thin-so if you want a heavier rug to put on wood or tile floors for the children to play on-may want some added cushion underneath. Also, there is not much grip-I have chairs sitting on it so not much chance of it sliding around, but constant movement without something to weigh down a good portion of the rug may cause it to shift from where it was placed. Otherwise great rug for the office space, gotten quite a few compliments so far.
