This rug is gorgeous. We got the runner - exactly as pictured, vibrant colors and makes me happy every time I walk down the hallway. It does slide around a bit on our hardwood floors and every once in a while I adjust it back to where it belongs - maybe one day I'll invest in a pad since there is no furniture on it to anchor it down. It is plush, comfortable to walk on, and a great mix of traditional pattern but bright colors that add personality.
