Delivery was quick and the rug was even better quality than I expected. It’s soft and plush enough to use without a rug pad underneath. Definitely an ivory-cream color, not too yellow at all. I noticed that the packaging wasn’t entirely closed on one end, which led to the rug getting dirty and a bit frayed on the edges in some spots (pictured). Annoying, but not worth the hassle of returning and thankfully you can’t see the damage when the rug is rolled out.
