We purchased 3 of these 3'3" x 5' area rugs for our guest bedroom.  With the suggested padding beneath them, they stay in place perfectly.  The furniture is black and the walls are yellow which is why we went with these rugs.  The yellow in the rugs is more of a gold than a soft yellow; but, I still think they look great in this room.  The pile on them has a nice soft feel on bare feet which satisfies the reason we got them.  After putting them on the floor, I placed a weighted object on each corner.  Within 18 hours the curl at the rolled up ends was gone and the rugs were all laying flat.  I think these rugs were an excellent value.
