This carpet is not real thick but is well made.  I was looking for a rug with a rubber backing for my kitchen and this one is perfect.  The color is various shades of brown but has a black trim.  I like that there is a wide variety of sizes because I am now going to purchase a smaller one as well.  It is easy to vacuum and hides crumbs in the kitchen.  It would work well in a hallway as well.
