I am so happy I took the plunge and bought this rug. I was nervous about buying a rug online but it worked out. The rug arrived quickly and it was packaged well. Upon unraveling the rug I discovered to my pleasant surprise there are not too many kinks in the rug from being rolled up in transit. The rug is soft to the touch. It is thin but the think tug pad works wonders underneath. The rug is a beautiful ivory and light gray color. It works well with my ivory couches and gray, gold, and blue accent pillows. The rug is neutral enough to pull a whole room together.
