I love the look of this rug, it makes a statement and is beautifully bold. the only things that are bothering me is the fact that even with the non-slip rug mat (a must on wood floors with this rug) it still moves around a bit. it may be the mat i bought, got it at bed bath and beyond. also the way they packaged the rug( it is 3 weeks later) the ends are still sticking up so we have to be careful not to trip. i'm hoping with more time the rug settles.. 
overall it is soft on the feet and a great pattern with compliments from guests.
