It is a beautiful color, just what we thought it would be and perfect for our son's room!  That being said, it is Very thin. We ordered a rug pad along with it for underneath and it makes a difference, but still thin. Turns out we didn't need a super plush like I thought I wanted. This really does work great in the room; soft on our feet (it's a rug, so walking on hardwood and then this, it does the job), adds color, softness and warmth.. so it does everything we needed, and it looks good! Very happy with this purchase  (just took awhile for me to come to grips with the thin-ness.. fact is, this met all our needs. It was a great purchase and I would make it again!
