For a rug that says Safavieh on the back of it the quality is a little surprising. Beautiful colors, great pattern but very thin (which we knew after reading reviews). I can get past the thin part because we knew we’d be gettingneed a rug pad, but the back is very stiff and scratchy and the quality of the actual rug itself is really cheap. I wouldn’t say the rug is soft or plush though by any means. It’s for a playroom so it’s not worth the cost of sending back and it matches perfectly. Good not great but really pretty
