We recently removed our carpet flooring with laminate wood, and needed a nice big rug to help tie our living room together and this rug is perfect! It’s super soft and thick, while also adding a perfect variety of color and brightness to the room. It is a little lighter then I imagined but I’m very happy with it. We bought the 8x10 and it fit perfect with plenty of room for both couches to have their feet resting on it, no more sliding couches!
