Basically, this rug is polyester/plastic and is fine for the money maybe (not expensive) but it is not high quality at all. The color is nice but it feels cheap and when you rub your hands through the carpet there is a residue left behind. There is no padding so if you're looking for something plush be sure to add at least a rug pad under, but not sure how much that will do this is very thin shag. We plan to keep through the winter as it will attract dirt being light color and shag, then replace with something high quality in the spring. If you can afford to do that, buy this rug. Otherwise spend your money wisely to begin with and don't by this rug!
