Love this rug! Bought the 10x14 for a spare bedroom and soon-to-be nursery. The colors blend great and are nice and neutral. Unrolled easily and the bumps smoothed out after a couple of days. I put heavy books on the corners to flatten and it worked within a day. I did put a rug pad underneath for added softness because it will be used for a baby but I don't think you'd need it for a spare room or living space.
