Bought this rug for our soon o arrive twin boy and girls nursery. It is great neutral color to blend the pink and blue. The color is exactly as pictured, and beautiful in person! AS described, it appears fluffy and plush, but if placing on hardwood, would recommend a pad underneath. Also note that it does shed some, especially if wearing black while sitting on rug, but all of this was anticipated before I ordered, so extremely happy with purchase! It flattened out and lost industrial smell after being laid out for a day or two.
