I got the large size, 9×11, and it was folded and rolled, but it unrolled and laid flat with no problem. It looks great in my living room. It is soft to the feet, not very thick, but still soft. The colors are as shown in picture. I wanted something aqua in color but matching shades of blue can be difficult so I opted for this, which has various hues and some browns so it blends easily with my decor. It is good quality for the price.
