For the price, this is a nice rug. It arrived with a few loose threads, but those have not impacted the design or integrity of the rug. It looks just like the website describes. The rug is in my entryway without furniture to hold it in place so the potential for tripping on it was a major concern at the outset; the rug arrived tightly rolled up and required several days under heavy, evenly spaced weights to lay flat. I recommend pairing this rug with the premium rug pad when used on hardwood floors.
