I purchased this rug several months ago.  It came exactly as described and pictured.  It was delivered within a week of ordering it.  The bends and folds from shipping eased out in a couple of days and the rug was completely flat after about 3 weeks.   The colors are subtle, yet tie the stone fireplace, my furniture, and the wall color together.  It adds a clean fresh look to my front room.  The pattern adds interest and the feeling of texture, does not overpower the room decor, but still makes it interesting.  I did put a non-slip pad under the rug, but since the rug was 12 x 14 with lots of furniture on it, I doubt it would move.  The rug plus pad adds just the right amount of cushion without causing too much elevation change and allows my vacuum to move smoothly from hard surface to rug.  I get lots of compliments on this carpet and would buy again.
