This is a fabulous rug, especially if you love polka dots, which I do. The ivory and black are graphically striking and the carpet is suitably thick and well-made. The only problem for me because of my Parkinson's symptoms, one being easily tripping or losing my balance, is that the black dots are raised and when I walk on it the unlevel surface can cause problems. Otherwise, I Love it and will keep it in a place where I don't often walk.
