Nice looking rug, good value for the amount I paid for it. It smelled a bit of 'new rug' smell for the first night but it seems fine now. The edges curl up a little, but its only been laid out for a couple of days. Hopefully they will flatten with time. The only minus is that the rug feels rather thin. Bought for my home office so it's fine there, but personally I prefer my slightly thicker rugs for the living areas.
