The rug came quickly and was packaged perfectly. When it was taken out of its wrapping and unrolled, we were pleasantly surprised at how flat it laid on the floor. The colors of the rug are beautiful and on our hardwood floor and teal painted walls, it is perfect. I expected a thinner rug and was glad to find it thicker and softer than some of the other reviews claimed. I highly recommend it since there is nothing I found negative about the rug or the packaging. I would purchase it again without reservation.
