Beautiful plush rug - exactly as pictured. I have had this rug for about 2 months now and it is in my entry way, so it gets a lot of traffic. So far it has held up to two dogs just fine - even after having to clean it with my carpet cleaner when a dog got sick on it! The rug is on laminate flooring, and you do definitely need a rug pad to go underneath to keep from slipping. One corner won’t seem to stay flat...but other than that it was a great purchase!
