We love this rug!!!  It is a tad darker than expected but still a great color.  I can't comment enough about the plushness of this rug.  It feels great under my feet and is definitely something I will sit on when the babies arrive.  I am an expectant mom so I was looking for something soft and plush.  This rug fit my requirements and we got it on sale.  Definitely worth the money for the value you get.
