This isn't the highest quality
 rug I've ever seen/felt. It
 weighs much less than I
 thought it would, and if you
 wiggle your fingers or toes
 into it, you can feel the
 little nodules in the base. 
 That being said, it is very
 soft, fluffy, and super nice
 to walk on... as long as you
 don't examine TOO closely. My
 dog LOVES sleeping on it! I'm
 very happy with my purchase. 
 The coloring is beautiful. I
 have only had it in place a
 week, and have yet to vacuum
 it, so durability over the
 long term isn't yet determined.
