The rug has a very cute design. I like the lighter tones in the pattern. It is a very low pile weave. It rolled out easily, but is still pretty curled up and wavy, as shown in the photos, especially on the inside edge of the roll. I'm hoping with some time with furniture and weights on it, the rolls will relax. I am definitely considering a pad for underneath the rug, as my family spends a lot of time in the room where we have this rug, and it is quite hard to sit on the floor.
