This is a great rug for the price. I like the thickness of it.  The fibers are obviously polyester when you feel them, but you can't tell just by looking.  The design is very modern.  The white and gray color combination is a terrific modern-neutral that will go with many designs.  I am using this in a low traffic area, so I can't speak to its ability to withstand stains or other thing that should be considered in high-use areas.
