LOVE this rug. We have cats so I tend to stay away from all those trendy woven rugs. We got it for our dining table and it's been working great so far. I didn't even need to get a rug pad! it's thick enough all by itself. And our cats do not feel compelled to scratch it.  I saw a few comments about a digital appearing print? I mean...I guess that's true in a certain light but not something that would come to my mind when looking at it. I'm also not a rug connoisseur...so eh. I say go for it!!!
