My rug arrived earlier this week.  It is even more beautiful than the photos.  It has a nice thickness to it, and it is a nice medium gray color.  I was a little worried that it might "smell" , after reading a couple of the other reviews. However I can tell you that there was absolutely no smell to this rug.  I am so glad that I purchased this one, and I would definitely do it again.

Pros: beautiful, and with a nice thickness to it
Cons: none
