The rug was very soft and thick. The color wasn’t quite what it looked like in the picture; had more cobalt blue in it than I would have liked but I could have lived with that. What I couldn’t live with, in fact what no one in the house could live with was the chemical smell. It was so strong it made my eyes burn and drifted through the whole area of the bedrooms. We tried airing it out for a month. Even took it outside for two days. The smell never went away. I emailed Wayfair’s customer “service” and never got a response. We ended up throwing the rug away.  It was a complete waste of money. I won’t be ordering from Wayfair again.
