Having read the reviews prior to purchasing I expected the rug to be somewhat thin, but I honestly didn't expect it to be as thin as it actually is.  This is not to say that's a huge issue as it overall, but  because the rug is thin it does have the tendency to get a bit rumpled with regular foot traffic even with the non-slip backing.  On the other hand, the nature of the rug allows for easy spot cleaning which I had to do two days after I put it down because one of my cats got sick on it.  The colors are vibrant and--as other reviewers have said--the blue is just a bit more teal than it looks in the pictures, but not overly so.  All in all, I'm happy with my purchase.
