It was really hard to tell what this rug was going to look like, based on photos from the sellers like Wayfair, compared to photos from CLJ blog where it looked so different. I wouldn’t describe this rug as soft, and it 100% needs a good rug pad for comfort. It seems high quality though, and is really lovely in person. We were hoping for a mustard and it reads like that, but also brown and cream and just a really nice warm neutral. It pulled the room together like only a good rug can. Very pleased.

UPDATE 9 months: This is the only rug in the house that my cat is able to TRASH with limited scratching and regular use. The loop construction pulls up very easily.
