I purchased the ivory. It is very soft. I would say medium/low thickness of the underneath but the shag is pretty long. I have a Dyson cordless and it didn't do the best job vacuuming it. I have three dogs so I can't have something with too long of shag because I need a good clean on my rug. It did have a pretty bad chemical smell upon opening that lasted a couple days. Also, the ivory rug was very cool toned. The grey is much more dominant over the tan and the white was a cool white. I ended up returning.
