This rug is super soft! The pattern/coloris very true to the photo and the wrapped border of the rug is a nice steel grey color. The size I purchased was about $45 and you can tell it's an affordable rug. I needed this for a high traffic/high spill family room so I wasn't looking to spend a lot. This rug has a high end look design-wise, but the materials give it away as an affordable piece. Overall very satisfied.
