We love this rug in our living room.  The white sections have a very nice high pile, and the grey pattern compliments very well.  We put a thick non-skid pad underneath (Craddock rug pad) that makes it extremely comfortable over our hardwood floors.  It flattened out almost immediately, even though we left it rolled up for a few weeks after delivery.  The quality is nice for the price.  We've got a new baby coming, this seems like a perfect rug for him to crawl around on.  Overall, very satisfied.
