My husband and I do not have the same design esthetic usually...
When I unwrapped this rug for our master bedroom in our new house he was as in love with the rug as I am!! It definitely is not a rug that just fades away into the surroundings. 

It is beautiful!! The white definitely shows more than the grey in the pictures, but it is lovely and matches our theme in our bedroom perfectly. One corner had a few threads coming out, but we turned that corner against the wall. 
Overall the rug is not thick or plush but I purchased it for under our bed, so I was not expecting it to be. 
Very happy with the purchase!
