Love this rug! using it in my office/loft to give it a bit of color and do get compliments on it. It's a low pile which is perfect for my office chair but if you want it to be a bit more plush a rug pad would do the trick. In my lighting it doesn't look quite as pink as it does in the photo's. it hides stains well and seems to be holding up great. I've been using it for months now and just getting around to the review. stain removal also seems to not be a problem with this rug as well. overall it's very pretty and adds a lot of color and life to the room.
