We were looking for a cheap, but beautiful rug for our living room. We have kids and 2 big dogs, which used to chew our rug (this is the reason for a cheap one). We got a huge size  and when it arrived (folded) we tought that it would never be flat. We were wrong. In 2 days the rug was almost completely flat. It is soft and surprisingly beautiful. We are happy with this rug. I only gave 4 stars because it is not well finished in one side (as showed in the picture).
