This carpet is beautiful, with vivid shades of caramel, cream, olive, rich burgundy & black.  Ordered the large size & it arrived tightly rolled as it should have been.  When I unrolled it, it layed flat, even at the 4 corners.  I do have it anchored on 2 sides (with sofas) but there are no creases or folds anywhere in it as others have noted.  I definitely recommend this item.
