Just what I was looking for. Bit nervous ordering it as this is something I would prefer seeing first, before buying...but very happy with the rug. Finding black and white modern rug, was impossible in the stores around me. It arrived promptly, only 10 days, coming from States to Canada. Packaged neatly and tight...hence that’s why we will be using books to flatten the corners. You will need to vacuum first right away, as some dust and fibres. I know black will show everything, but that’s the colour my daughter insisted, and it looked soft and perfect for her bedroom. Pile is low, so don’t expect shaggy rug, but not super flat so it’s not rough to walk on. She can still roll her chair over it.
