This rug doesn’t look like the photo in person. It is pretty, and looks great with my new sofa. It’s thin, but is “washable” so I assume that normal. I bought a rug pad and placed underneath. Easy fix. My only issue, with the rug, it’s very hard to vacuum. I have a very good rainbow vacuum cleaner. And it’s as if, the particles just bounce around, and the vacuum won’t suction to the surface. I think, sweeping the rug may do better Overall, I’m satisfied. Would recommend.
