The rug is SIPER soft. Too ban it is under a table. It would be great as a family room rug. I may buy another for my front hall. Delivery was a complete mess, though. It took three and a half weeks and  the dates reported when i bought it did not match with reality and even in transit, the online system reported the wrong dates. The delivery driver was supposed to put it in the front hall, but he left it at the front door (uncovered) without ringing the bell and a storm was coming. It was waaaaay too heavy for me to bring it in myself. I was really surprised how bad the delivery was. But great rug!
