The pattern on this rug is beautiful and the colors true to the pictures online.  I have only had it down on the floor for two days but the creases that were in it when it arrived have already smoothed out so that it lies flat.  I wish it had a thicker pile, but for the price it is a very nice looking rug and feels soft underfoot.  It definitely requires a rug pad underneath it.  My two cats and my big lab love it so I hope it will wear and clean up well after some time has passed!
