The colors of this rug surprised me, I thought they were going to be dull colors, but wow I got a surprise. The colors are bright, vibrant helps the room come to life. With the way the colors are laid out it makes a beautiful design. I love that when you are cleaning it you don't get enough lint to make another one there is no shedding with this rug. I do recommend getting a pad to go underneath it, without the padding it will slip and you will always have to pull it back in place, also you could slide up without the padding to grip it. Also it will make it softer to walk on. With the combination of colors you can match furniture covers, drapes easily to match. It is a great place for your little ones to sit and play. I would recommend maybe spraying a water repellent on it, if you have little ones accidents may happen even with adults it could happen.
