I love this rug. It was just delivered today and it arrived in perfect condition. It is a reversible throw, but it is very heavy duty. I will need to purchase a rubber mat but between the couch and coffee table holding it down, it wont move. I don’t know why the other reviewer is complaining about cotton threads….get over it. This rug adds so much color to my living room I LOVE IT. The handwoven cotton threads are beautiful and each one has its own colorful bit of character. I particularly love the shiny gold pieces.
