The rug met my expectations.  It was folded pretty well so the creases should come out easily but I wish it was a little thicker.  I did read the thickness but was being optimistic. Wanted something with red/maroon and this looked like it would work.  Update - after using for about a week I did buy a pad for underneath for some extra cushion.  I also realized that the one I received wasn't true to the stated size.  Luckily it worked in my space but not everyone could have the same experience.
