We got this rug in the 6x9 size. The rug came packaged really well. It is thin but that's what we wanted. It has some light/silvery thread which reflects the light and makes the room brighter. We put it down yesterday and we really like it. The reason for the 3 star review is that we noticed there is already a small area where the stitching at the edge has started to unravel. We put some duct tape over that area and put it in the back corner of the room to try to keep it from getting worse. Very disappointing that the quality of the stitching on the edges is poor in an otherwise lovely rug.
