I love this rug.  The colors look exactly like the computer pictures.  It immediately laid flat.  Usually I don't like fringe but this has about an inch of it and I am not constantly straightening it out.  Another reviewer felt the fringe added a more expensive look and I agree.  It is very soft.  I did add the pad and it created a nice plush cushion. The price was awesome.  I had been looking for several months on all the various websites.  I have ordered various products from Wayfair and they always seem to deliver as stated in their descriptions and reviews.  My biggest problems was finding what I liked in a 9 x 12.  So many rugs were sized at 8 x 11.  I would highly recommend this rug.
