I just received this rug a few days ago (very quickly which was a bonus) and we really like it! It is super soft, almost velvet feeling which adds a very luxe touch. With the velvet look comes a downside, imprints show VERY easily, especially at certain angles. I can see footprints and marks but they brush away with just a touch so not a huge problem. Over all, we love this rug and it was a great value for the price!
