I like the aesthetics of the rug, but it's really flimsy. I have a coffee table that I like to move closer to the couch sometimes, and I can't "scoot" it on the rug at all - it would completely mess up the rug I think, and definitely bunch it up in weird places.

I think a rug pad might help, but I'll never be able to slide furniture over it. 

I'm also hoping it would lay flatter with a rug pad. 

For the price, it's not bad...but just not the thickness/sturdiness I was expecting. (You could honestly probably use it as a blanket if you had to)
