This rug works great for where I wanted it (in front of sink in bathroom) because it’s almost entirely flat. This works because I don’t really want a rug that catches things in the bathroom haha... but if I had bought a larger one for a living space I would’ve returned it. It’s beautiful and the non-stick underside is great... but not plush at all and a somewhat shiny finish. Again, perfect for my use but not what I’d want in a living space
