This rug was exactly what I hoped for. It is very soft and has a great aged look of something much more expensive. This rug is a little thin so if you want a super plush feel, opt for a thicker, nicer rug pad underneath. This gave us the look and feel we wanted. Everyone who sees our rug thinks it is an antique costing much more than we paid! I would definitely recommend this rug to anyone! We received it quickly and it looks just like the online image.
