Great under your feet. As others have said, it feels a lot like a light blanket, very soft and thin. Unfortunately not machine washable however. It did lie flat immediately after unrolling it, so that was nice. Overall very happy with my choice. Color and pattern are understated, but excellent. I have two cats that haven't destroyed it after a few weeks, though I don't expect it to last very long with them. The weave is pretty loose, so very easy for claws to hook in.
