I would give this 4.5 stars, but there isn't a half star option. ;) The value for this rug is amazing. I ordered the 9x12 for the living room of our midcentury modern condo. It's PERFECT! The half star deduction is because it's a bit thin- not a deal breaker by any means. It also doesn't lay flat yet, I am confident that over the next couple of weeks it will "settle".
