This rug is so much darker in person. I took a picture to upload, but I don't see the option to do so. I like that it's thick. I'm sure it'll last a long time. I'm just disappointed that I actually took a few days to read reviews and look at other rugs, but ended up choosing this one. It is definitely not soft as other reviews stated and you can't take your eyes off it because it stands out so much (not in a good way).
