I have to admit. I NEVER write reviews. Yet I don’t make an online purchase without reading most of the reviews first. I am a skeptical online purchaser because I like to see the item in person. But I took a chance and am so pleased. The color is perfect (I worried about that one because a lot of people complain that the color was not what they expected). It was easy to get the wrinkles out (I stretched it out for 2 days before laying it). It feels sturdy yet not rough on the feet. I haven’t had to clean it yet but it looks like it will be easy. I entertained this past weekend and got a lot of compliments on it. I recommend this rug.
