The rug is quite thin but that is okay. Just don't expect it to feel very plush. It has a silky feel to it which is nice. It is slightly darker beige than I was expecting but it still looks good in the office. :) Good quality for the price. Does have a strong smell when you open it and didn't come on a cardboard tube like others we purchased here had, so the curls are a little harder to work out. Overall happy with the rug!
