I have ordered several rugs from this site, and this is probably my least favorite. It is very thin, and the individual yarns that make up the shag are also fairly thin. It is not as plush as it could be, and the backing is fairly stiff which makes it difficult for it to lay completely flat. It also has a very strong chemical smell when you first open it. The colored yarns are slightly brighter than as pictured. It does look nice, however.
