THE 9X12 AREA RUG (Bally"s Power Loom Synthetic Terracotta Indoor Area Rug) ARRIVED WITHIN A WEEK.  HAD TO BE DELIVERED FOLDED BECAUSE IT WAS AN "OVERSIZED" PACKAGE.  ONCE ON THE FLOOR THE FOLDS RESOLVED TO FLAT AFTER TWO WEEKS, AND WERE NOT THAT PROBLEMATIC IN THE FIRST PLACE.  COLOR OF THE RUG, A TRUE TERRACOTTA RED, MATCHING THE TERRACOTTA BRICKS ON THE WALL, NAVY BLUE BORDER A TRUE NAVY, AND OTHER COLORS MUTED FOR A PERFECT BLEND EFFECT THAT COMPLEMENTS MOST ANY COLOR IN THE LIVING ROOM. 
The designs are the rug blend except for a couple of funky outlines that stand out after you notice them.
THE NAP SEEMS LESS THAN 0.5", BUT THE TEXTURE IS SOFT (BOUGHT A 1/4" PAD FOR UNDERNEATH) AND IS DOING WELL WITH A VACUUM.  THE PICTURE IS A VERY GOOD REPRESENTATION OF WHAT YOU WILL GET.
