I bought this rug about a month ago for my sitting area. It offgassed (bad new rug smell) for about 2 weeks. The rug seems thin and not very soft, even with a thick rug pad. Also, the corners curled up really badly and I had to buy carpet tape to keep them down. Finally, the rug has some creases in it that I cant flatten out. Overall, I probably wouldnt buy this rug again.
