I love this rug. Its very soft to walk on and the color is spot on. Its very heavy so its not going to travel. It did not have a smell like a lot of rugs do.  The vertical edges are twice as thick and I could see someone tripping if not careful, but I already knew about this from other reviews. The location where I have my rug will not get a lot of foot traffic but will be seen. Bought it on sale; very impressed
